Environmental and economic development in Newark, NJhmendoza716
A green city promotes economic development by providing an environmental friendly framework that encourages new trends that will provide monetary and social investment into the city, which creates a healthy and sustainable community. Environmental conservation and economic development are not conflicting but can be mutually reinforcing, as environmentalists have prompted calls for "environmentally sustainable" economic development. Economic development can be made progressive by reducing some of the detrimental effects of global warming, which for the most part, are man-made. By improvising on behaviors and understanding the need for a more environmentally friendly atmosphere, economic development can go green. Environmental sustainability can best spur regional development and economic growth by creating green jobs through retrofitting buildings in using renewable energy, cleaning-up and reinvesting in brownfield sites to create green space for mix-used communities, and to strengthen the public transportation infrastructure to bring commerce activity.

Eco City Development towards Developing Low Carbon SocietyMD. SAIDUR RAHMAN
This presentation focuses on eco-city development initiatives in developing countries towards developing low carbon society. Rapid urbanization in developing countries may be the most significant demographic transformation in our century as it restructures national economies and reshapes the lives of billions of people. At the same time, urbanization has also contributed to environmental and socioeconomic challenges, including climate change, pollution, congestion, and the rapid growth of slums. But as a major style of residential environment, city, has been endowed new contents by new ideas ever emerged in the history and eco-city development has emerged as a way to address climate change issues in the context of developing sustainable cities in developing countries. Eco-cities have the potential to address many of the problems like climate change and socio-economic aspects associated with urban development, as does the concept of sustainable development in an urban setting. Drawing on lessons learned from the planning and development process of several low-carbon eco-cities, this paper explores the potential of an integrated urbanism approach for developing countries. The objective is not only to mitigate factors contributing to climate change, but to manage risk, maximize resilience, and promote the successful economic and social growth of the urban eco community in developing countries. An integrated urbanism approach to planning may give us the tools to leapfrog the environmental and public health costs of economic progress and create a new model for cities across the developing world.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

1. 3.1What are the urban problems in Hong Kong?
**Table 1:
Urban problems
1. Housing
2. Pollution
3. Traffic congestion
Causes
1. Many people in a small area
2. Shortage of flat land H.K. is hilly
3. Economic growth
4. Lack of urban planning in the past
Land use conflict
Old urban area
5. Construction work, cars and home cause
pollution
What are the major urban problems in Hong
Kong?
1. Housing problems
2. Crowded conditions
Small housing units
Buildings are very close together
Not enough open spaces for recreation
Close to industrial areas
Close to busy roads
*example: Sham Shui Po
the living environment is poor
2. Traffic congestions *Hong Kong has the highest car density*
Car density=no. of cars /length of roads
There is usually traffic congestion at
bottlenecks in the main roads during
rush-hours.
It is also found in industrial areas where
loading and unloading of goods take place.
Traffic congestion at the entrance of the
Cross-Harbour Tunnel
Example: Lion Rock Tunnel
Picture in book p.70
3. 3. Pollution
What kinds of pollution are there in Hong
Kong?
Air pollution (smoke), Water pollution (dirty
water), Noise pollution (loud noise), Land
pollution (garbage) and Light pollution
(bright light).
***(They are called pollutants)***
What are the causes of these urban problems?
1. Many people in a small area
What is the population density about Hong
Kong?
Hong Kong is densely populated or sparsely
populated? (Of course, it is densely populated)
Population density=no. of people /total area
Population in Hong Kong is unevenly
distributed. Many people are crowded into old
urban areas such as Mong Kok and Kwun
Tong.
4. 2. Shortage of land for urban development
Hong Kong is small and hilly.
There is limited flat land for urban
development.
In some areas, such as Wan Chai, the buildings
are very close to each other.
We call these ‘concrete jungles’
3. Lack of urban planning in the past
Some factories were built near residential
areas.
Pollution is serious.
Narrow roads and lack of transport facilities
are common in these areas.
Urban planning was bad in these areas.
4. Economic growth
Hong Kong people have become richer.
The number of cars has increased.
Hong Kong is an important centre.
The demand for transport has also increased.
5. Figure1:
Hong Kong people become richer
Number of cars has increased
Figure2:
Growth of trade
Increase the demand for transport
Figure3:
The construction of new roads cannot catch up
with the increase in the number of cars
Traffic congestion and pollution
5. Cars, construction works and homes cause
pollution
Cars, buses and lorries give off waste gases.
Construction works and traffic produce loud
noise.
We also produce a lot of waste, such as
6. garbage and sewage, at home every day.
It causes water pollution.
Figure1:
Factories Cars Homes
Loud noise Waste gases Dirty water Solid waste
(noise (air pollution) (water (land pollution)
pollution) pollution)
**Look the figure in book p.76*(Summary)
3.3What has been done to solve the urban
problems in Hong Kong
**Table 2:
Solutions to the problems
1. Lower population growth
a) Birth control
b) Limit number of immigrants
2. Develop more land
a) Develop new towns
b) Reclamation
7. 3. Build more houses
4. Redevelop the old urban areas
5. Build more roads and improve public transport
6. Conserve the environment
7. Better urban planning
What has been done to solve the urban
problems? **The first reason** (about Lower population growth)
1. Lower population growth
Suggest two reasons for the change.
*1.Government (Family Planning Association
of Hong Kong) encourage birth control.
*2. People like to have small family.
Describe the change in birth rates.
*The birth rate in Hong Kong is decreasing.
Look at the figure1 (in book) about the birth
rates in Hong Kong since 1955.
**The second reason** (about Lower population growth)
*Government also limits the flow of
immigrants.
8. *The government tries to lower population
growth by birth control and controlling the
number of immigrants from the mainland
of China.
2. Develop more land **The first reason** (about Develop more land)
*The government has developed nine new
towns.
This helps to lower the population density of
the old urban areas. The living environment
improves. It becomes less crowded.
Government has created more flat land by
reclamation. **The second reason** (about Lower population growth)
Reclamation increases land for urban
development.
Most of the land in West Kowloon is obtained
from reclamation.
Look the figure3(in book p.87)
3. `Build more houses **The first reason** (about Build more houses)
The government has built many public
9. housing estates to help low-income people
improve their living conditions.
The government also rebuilds some old
public housing estates. The new estates
provide more living spaces and better
**The second reason** (about Build more houses)
facilities.
The government has built housing estates for
sale at prices below market value.
**The third reason** (about Build more houses)
4. Redevelop the old urban areas
Example: Wan Chai, Yau Ma Tei and Sheung
Wan (have been redeveloped).
5. Build more roads and improve public
transport
Improve public transport and road network to
ease the traffic congestion problem.
Building nine tunnels, new roads and
highways which link up all the new towns, the
airport and the old urban areas.
10. Government also encourages the use of mass
transit systems, such as the MTR, the Light
Rail, the East Rail and the Airport Railway.
These systems provide convenient transport
for a large number of people.
West Rail (opening in 2003) and the Ma On
Shan Rail (opening in December 2004), there
are better links between the New Territories
and the urban areas.
Figure 1:
Public Transport
Light Rail: Tuen Mun
West Rail: ---
East Rail: Kowloon Lo Wu
MTR: Long form Mass Transit Railway
Airport Express: ---
Q: Which new towns will the West Rail link
up?
A: Tsuen Wan, Tuen Mun, Yuen Long and
11. Tin Shui Wai.
Look the map (in book p.89)>>[link to p.62]
**The nine new towns need to spell!
6. Conserve the environment
The government set up the Environmental
Protection Department to promote
environment protection.
Figure 2:
Carry out improvement work
Noise barrier at roadsides
Pass laws to control pollution
Pass laws to control emission of waste gases
and sewage
Penalty for smoky vehicles is increased
to$1,000
Annoying noise is not allowed between 11 p.m.
and 7 a.m. and on holidays.
12. Educate the public
‘Waste recycling campaigns’ encourage people
to reduce and separate waste
7. Better urban planning
It is a way to help solve urban problems.
It can avoid land use conflict.
Example: there is little land use conflict in
Sha Tin new town because it is well-planned.
Are these good measures?
Some natural environment is under threat
As shown in Table 2 and Figure 9 (p.92), the
measures used to solve urban problems may cause
other bad effects.
**Look the figure 9 in book p.92**

The cost of a good environment is high
It needs money to improve the environment.
Water users are required to pay extra money to
cover the cost of new sewage systems.
14. Factory owners need to build new facilities to
meet pollution control standards. This
increases the cost of production.

3.5 How can we make our city a better place to
live?

programs.
Is it easy to solve the urban problems?
1. Q: What urban problem can building flyovers
help solve?
A: To solve transport problem (traffic congestion)
2. Q: What problems will flyovers bring about?
15. A: Noise pollution and air pollution.
How can we help to make our city an ideal place
to live?
Solving urban problems is not only the
responsibility of the government. Each of us
should help to improve the urban environment.
The government should provide community
facilities carry out good urban planning and
redevelop old urban areas
In recent years, more and more people have
argued that sustainable development of the
urban areas is important.
Sustainable development balances social,
economic and environmental needs, both for
present and future generations.
Example: we can reduce waste and separating
waste for recycling.
Figure 3:
We should:
16. 1. Save energy
2. Pay tax, land rent and fees
3. Save water
4. Use public transport
5. Keep the environment clean
