The document proposes a water conservation device called the DropBox that can save half a gallon of water per toilet flush. It would help address growing water shortage issues and reduce environmental impacts. An employee engagement program is suggested to distribute 10 million DropBoxes in order to realize substantial water, energy, pollution, and cost savings benefits. Educational materials are also proposed to accompany the DropBox to increase awareness of water-related issues.

National Games Village - Tungabhadra from Waste to Resource (220 Apartments)ADDA
This Slideshare is about National Games Village - Tungabhadra, a 220 unit Apartment Complex in Koramangla, Bangalore which gained an advantage in implementing Solid Waste Management.
The Apartment Complex used separate bins for recyclable and non-recyclable waste that was brought from each household of the Apartment Complex. In six months, Tungabhadra had generated an income of close to Rs.1 Lakh sustaining through the Zero Waste management.Out of this revenue generated Rs 93,000 was from recyclables.

In this issue of On Common Ground, we present the many approaches that REALTORS®, home builders, school of cials, environmentalists, public officials and concerned citizens are using to shape communities into sustainable human environments — communities that make better use of our resources and reduce the damage we leave behind.
Author of “The Future of Water” and a long-time strategic consultant and transactional advisor to the water industry, Maxwell will review current challenges and opportunities in the world water market, and will highlight four critical trends which will increasingly categorize the water business and water decision-making over the longer-term future.
Cities in delta areas are threatened by the impacts of climate change, urbanization and land subsidence. In this presentation, the concept of ‘Flood-proof Ecocity’ has been introduced to cope with the expected challenges and to summarize recent debates about future water cities. In a ‘Flood-proof Ecocity’ urban water systems are used as a source of energy, nutrients and local water supply. There is an important role for citizens as co-producers of the urban space. Citizens will also be involved in local water supply and energy production. Surface water in Flood-proof Ecocities is used for a wide variety of functions including floating buildings and water-based urban transport. The water manager is involved from the beginning of spatial developments. To adapt cities to extreme weather events and flood risk, flood control is integrated with urban development and urban renewal. Next to technical and design elements, this presentation has presented multiple building blocks that are needed for the governance of Flood-proof Ecocities. Important elements include: improving stakeholder receptivity, improving the competitiveness of innovations, creating a commercial markets for innovations, introducing new institutional mechanisms and facilitating new roles for citizens, technical professionals and designers.
This is my Inaugural Lecture about the Blue Revolution. It shows that we need to ralize urban expansions on the water and combine this with floating food production and floating algae biofuel production to deal with the challenges of the 21st century. Much of the work was developed with my colleagues at DeltaSync. We want to collaborate with people all over the world to develop pilot projects and expand on the water in a sustainable way. it goes much further than being self-sufficient. The purpose is to create a symbiosis between cities on land and water. Floating cities could use the waste CO2 and nutrients of land based cities in a productive way, providing at the same time affordable flood proof housing for the people. Most of the building blocks are there. We need to bring it together to make the next step. Because only a small part of the ocean is needed, the rest can become a nature reserve giving marine ecosystems a long term perspective on survival. A perspective that is currently lacking. We look forward to receive comments and ideas. Best regards,

This presentation elaborates on the strategies and measures that can be applied in cities to become flood resilient. The presentation was initially part of my Inaugural Lecture at Rotterdam University of Applied Science in November 2012, but I removed it due to time restrictions. Next to my work on floating cities I also work on transformation of land based cities into floodproof eco cities. This presentation contains results from teh EU FP7 project FloodProBe en the work we did for waterboards in the Netherlands.

solvents, separation agents, etc.) should be made unnecessary
wherever possible and innocuous when used.
Design for Energy Efficiency: Energy requirements of chemical
processes should be recognized for their environmental and economic
impacts and should be minimized. If possible, synthetic methods
should be conducted at ambient temperature and pressure.
Use of Renewable Feed stocks: A raw material or feedstock should
be renewable rather than depleting whenever technically and
economically practicable.
Reduce Derivatives: Unnecessary derivatization (use of blocking
groups, protection/ deprotection, temporary modification of physical/
chemical processes) should be minimized or avoided if possible,
because such steps require additional reagents and can generate
waste.
Catalysis: Catalytic reagents (as selective as possible) are superior to
stoichiometric reagents.
Design for Degradation: Chemical products should be designed so
that at the end of their function they break down into innocuous
degradation products and do not persist in the environment.
Real-time analysis for Pollution Prevention: Analytical methodologies
need to be further developed to allow for real-time, in-process
monitoring and control prior to the formation of hazardous substances.
Inherently Safer Chemistry for Accident Prevention: Substances and
the form of a substance used in a chemical process should be chosen
to minimize the potential for chemical accidents, including releases,
explosions, and fires.[8]
Green chemistry in day-to-day life
Green Dry Cleaning of Clothes: Perchloroethylene (PERC) is commonly
being used as a solvent for dry cleaning. It is now known that PERC
which contaminates ground water and is a suspected carcinogen.
A technology, known as Micell technology developed by Joseph De
Simons, Timothy Romark, and James McClain made use of liquid CO2
and a surfactant for dry cleaning clothes, thereby replacing PERC. Dry
cleaning machines have now been developed using this technique.
Micell Technology has also evolved a metal cleaning system that uses
CO2 and a surfactant thereby eliminating the need of halogenated
solvents. [9]
Versatile Bleaching Agents: It is common knowledge that paper is
manufactured from wood (which contains about 70% polysaccharides
and about 30% lignin). For good quality paper, the lignin must be
completely removed. Initially, lignin is removed by placing small
chipped pieces wood into a bath of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and
sodium sulphide (Na2S). By this process about 80-90% of lignin is
decomposed. The remaining lignin was so far removed through
reaction with chlorine gas (Cl2). The use of chlorine removes all the
lignin (to give good quality white paper) but causes environmental
problems. Chlorine also reacts with aromatic rings of the lignin to
produce dioxins, such as 2,3,4-tetrachloropdioxin and chlorinated
furans. These compounds are potential carcinogen olvents

The term “Green Chemistry”
NanoTowels: These are reusable towels that are made using nanotechnology. They are designed to clean various surfaces without the need for harsh chemicals. The towels are said to be highly absorbent and can be used for cleaning windows, countertops, and other surfaces around the house.
Laundry Magnets: These are magnetic balls that are claimed to reduce the need for laundry detergent and fabric softener. They work by altering the surface tension of the water, which helps in cleaning the clothes. Water Liberty claims that the laundry magnets can be used for up to 1,500 loads of laundry.

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.
