8th Std Social Science - Geography- Chapter 2. Land,Soil, Water, Natural Vegetation and Wildlife Resources.
Land is among the most important natural resources.
It covers only about thirty per cent of the total area of the earth’s surface and all parts of this small percentage are not habitable.
The uneven distribution of population in different parts of the world is mainly due to varied characteristics of land and climate.
The rugged topography, steep slopes of the mountains, low-lying areas susceptible to water logging, desert areas, thick forested areas are normally sparsely populated or uninhabited. Plains and river valleys offer suitable land for agriculture. Hence, these are the densely populated areas of the world.
Conservation refers to the protection, preservation, management, and restoration of natural resources, including plants and animals.
It aims to maintain the balance of ecosystems and ensure the sustainable use of resources for present and future generations.
Importance of Conservation:
1. Biodiversity Preservation: Conservation helps maintain the variety of plant and animal species, which is essential for ecosystem stability and resilience.
2. Ecosystem Stability: It ensures the balance of ecosystems, preventing disruptions that can lead to environmental degradation and the loss of habitat.
3. Economic Benefits: Conservation supports industries such as agriculture, forestry, and tourism, which rely on healthy ecosystems for resources and services.
4. Cultural and Aesthetic Value: Many plants and animals hold cultural significance and contribute to the aesthetic beauty of landscapes, making conservation important for cultural heritage and human well-being.
Threats to Plants and Animals:
1. Habitat Loss: Due to deforestation, urbanisation, and agricultural expansion, many plant and animal habitats are being destroyed or fragmented.
2. Pollution: Contamination of air, water, and soil with pollutants threatens the health and survival of plants and animals.
3. Climate Change: Rising temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events disrupt ecosystems and impact plant and animal populations.
4. Overexploitation: Unsustainable hunting, fishing, logging, and harvesting of plants for commercial purposes can lead to the depletion of species and ecosystems.
Conservation Strategies:
1. Protected Areas: Establishing national parks, wildlife sanctuaries, and biosphere reserves to safeguard habitats and species.
2. Habitat Restoration: Rehabilitating degraded ecosystems through reforestation, wetland restoration, and sustainable land management practices.
3. Regulation and Legislation: Enforcing laws and regulations to control pollution, prevent illegal wildlife trade, and promote sustainable resource management.
4. Community Involvement: Engaging local communities in conservation efforts through education, awareness campaigns, and sustainable livelihood opportunities.
5. Research and Monitoring: Conduct scientific research to understand ecosystems, monitor biodiversity, and develop effective conservation strategies.

Trinity River Land and Water Summit: Overview of Watersheds, Water Quality Im...Trinity Waters
Given at the Trinity River Land and Water Summit in Athens, Texas, on October 2, 2013. Purpose was to highlight specific watersheds in the middle Trinity River basin and provide details on different watershed planning tools that could be used to improve water quality. Other presentations during the day explained how cattle grazing, row crop farming, and wildlife management can all accomplish water quality goals when done with the overall watershed health in mind, especially for the Trinity River that provides water for 45% of the Texas population. Presentation featured questions that the audience could answer using remote clickers for immediate feedback from the entire group. Results are on the slides and will lead to greater understanding of stakeholders in this part of the Trinity River basin. Keynote speakers were Todd Staples, Texas Agriculture Commissioner, and Bob McCan, President of the National Cattlemen's Beef Association.
Treasuring the Trinity: Challenges and OpportunitiesTrinity Waters
The Trinity River supplies water to 45% of the Texas population, making it perhaps the most important river basin in Texas. Water quality issues have challenged this river, as well as drought, land fragmentation and habitat loss. Trinity Waters and AgriLife Extension are working with partners to promote land stewardship to improve landowner quality of life and water supplies by connecting urban resources back into the watersheds that support them.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
