Water leakage causes damage to structures and its contents Reinforcement corrosion , delamination, accelerated aging and increased maintenance costs are all serious concerns
Application design requirement specification for water demand , and water seepage study and investigation to locate the source of the seepage will reduce future damage to the structure and reduce maintenance costs. There are many reasons for water
leakage in buildings, some cases are caused by defective water pipes, sanitary fittings or drainage pipes or rain water leakage from roof and walls . Water leakage may come from dilapidated pipes in adjacent flats or even from inside the same flat. It may also be due to water seeping through common areas, such as the roof or external walls due to poor workmanship or inadequate design.
If water leakage is found in roof or walls or water supply or sewerage pipes and fitting and fixtures a proper investigation of the cause needs to be carried out

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

Water Resources Management Plans in India. 14 February 2017. Hyderabad
Potential and possible power of benefit
sharing and trade-offs to address conflictive
issues on the basin-wide scale
4. Benefit-sharing
Countries/regions through which a river flows can share the
financial, social, and environmental benefits, without
necessarily dividing the flow of water or allocating diversions
among the countries in a quantitative manner
benefit sharing reframes the means of ‘possessing’ water, by
privileging the benefits of joint rather than unilateral
development of the shared resource… Benefit sharing focuses on
how the outputs from water use can be optimally allocated to
various actors for different objectives.
Trade-offs: International treaty deliberations use the terms rights,
interests, and needs. Analysis and Negotiations needed to
identify and precise trade-offs

offs
Trade-offs
6. Types of Benefits to
be shared
• Energy (by sharing production)
• Permanent Water quantity (by sharing investments in supply
or efficiency infrastructure)
• Temporary Water scarcity and Drought risk (by water markets
or trading schema)
• Flood risks (by upstream investments)
• Water quality improvements (by upstream investments)
7. Experiences of
benefit-sharing (1)
Energy
• Senegal: Manantali dam (2003) re investments, navigation, hydropower
• India-Bhutan hydropower investments & cooperation
• Mekong: Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam
• Itaipu dam (Brazil, Paraguay) effect of royalties on living conditions
• Lesotho Highlands Water Project on the River Senqu-Orange (Angola,
Namibia): locating the project upstream increases aggregate net benefits .
Lesotho Highlands Water Project illustrates benefit sharing in practice
through payment for water, purchase agreements for power, and
financing arrangements
• Dams on the Columbia River (US-Canada): altered dam design increases
aggregate net benefits , including flood protection benefits
• Kariba Dam on the River Zambezi (Zambia, Zimbabwe)
• IIT Roorkee has explored a framework to promote cooperation in the
Brahmaputra basin (hydropower, flood management, navigation)
8. Experiences of
benefit-sharing (2)
Preventing flood risks by upstream investments
• Room for the River NL-BE (green infrastructure)
• Linked to Hydropower (e.g. Columbia river)
Water scarcity and Drought risk
• Drought Management Plans, with different guarantee levels,
e.g. Spain, EU
• Water markets (potentially a tool for sharing benefits),
Australia
• Agreement on environmental flows regimes
9. Challenges
1. equitable sharing of value, especially with women and the less-wealthy,
2. potentially high costs of development and implementation,
3. changing historical water institutions/ traditions, and
4. overcoming perceptions of increased economic or security risk
Criteria and institutional set-up :
• economic (optimization)
• environmental
• Long-term sustainability
• Social (equity) …
Tools:
• Multi-criteria analysis
• Hydro-economic modelling
• Gaming & scenario development
