This presentation, delivered by Herry Purnomo and Bayuni Shantiko, explains research undertaken to inform decision makers about the on-the-ground dynamics that result in large fires in Indonesia. The research findings highlight the complexity of the situation, with multiple actors, land types and drivers influencing outcomes. It was delivered at a Jakarta Foreign Correspondent Club panel discussion on fire and haze on 23 September 2015
Stakeholder perceptions of fire and hazeCIFOR-ICRAF
Fire and haze from Sumatran peatland is a "wicked" environmental problem because: there are no easy or technical solutions, especially on peatland; and it involves hotly contested political issues with multiple scales, sectors and actors.
Benefits, burdens and solutions to Indonesian Peatland FiresCIFOR-ICRAF
Peatland fires have burned annually in Indonesia since the 1990s, and they come with significant costs between multiple stakeholders. There perceptions might help build a bridge to a solution.
This presentation by CIFOR scientist Herry Purnomo held at The Jakarta Foreign Correspondents Club during a panel discussion on the Indonesian fires and haze focuses on the stakeholders involved in the haze issue, socio-economic drivers leading to it, policy and governance and the way forward with the landscape approach in connection to haze.

The way we go about making decisions can affect the final choice w.docxpelise1
The way we go about making decisions can affect the final choice we make. Our bias and personality influence our decisions. However, a good decision process will help make the balance we need between bias and facts to create the best possibilities. A good process also helps us address the components of a decision in a sensible order to make a prompt decision.
There are many decision models used by managers and organizations today, but they all contain common elements: identifying the decision to be made, framing the decision as to its purpose, designing alternatives, evaluating the alternatives in relationship to the objectives needed to meet the purpose of making the decision, making the decision, and reviewing the process and its effectiveness in implementing the decision.
It is important to remember that the purpose behind decision making models is to help mitigate the influence our natural biases have in making decisions. Understanding the process and how it interjects objectivity in to the decision-making process is the focus of the next few weeks of class.
The model we will use in this class is adapted from the Decision Quality Model Developed by the Decision Education Foundation in conjunction with Stanford University. model is known as DQ or Decision Quality. We have adapted the model by adding and combining elements to the traditional six-step chain. We will call it MDQ or Modified Decision Quality.
Here are the elements of the MDQ process:
· Declare the Decision-what is the decision that is to be made? What is it? What it is not? State the decision.
· Frame the decision- there are three components to a decision: 1) Purpose- what you hope to accomplish by making the decision (objectives); 2) Scope- what to include and exclude in the decision; and 3) Perspective- your point of view about the decision, the ways you want to approach, or others may approach making the decision. Framing is like the zoom feature of the camera. What we include in the picture is the scope of the decision. The angle for the best lighting and view is the perspective and what kind of picture we want, an action or landscape shot, is the purpose.
· Building the decision- this includes identifying the values, collecting data, developing alternatives, collecting information, that results in clarifying what you really want from the decision.
· Evaluate and Make Decision- 1) Comparing the alternatives based on information and values- which is best for me and those I care about if this is personal decision or what is best for the business or organization. Before deciding, rate the decision on the elements or objectives. Does the choice make sense? 2)Improve- are their gaps in the quality of the decision? Do you have areas that you are uncertain of or feel lack information? Repeat the process after filling in the gaps to see if the choice is 100% what you want from the decision. (Decision Quality Model, 2009).
· Assess the Decision- Did the implementation of the altern.

Micro RNA genes and their likely influence in rice (Oryza sativa L.) dynamic ...Open Access Research Paper
Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs molecules having approximately 18-25 nucleotides, they are present in both plants and animals genomes. MiRNAs have diverse spatial expression patterns and regulate various developmental metabolisms, stress responses and other physiological processes. The dynamic gene expression playing major roles in phenotypic differences in organisms are believed to be controlled by miRNAs. Mutations in regions of regulatory factors, such as miRNA genes or transcription factors (TF) necessitated by dynamic environmental factors or pathogen infections, have tremendous effects on structure and expression of genes. The resultant novel gene products presents potential explanations for constant evolving desirable traits that have long been bred using conventional means, biotechnology or genetic engineering. Rice grain quality, yield, disease tolerance, climate-resilience and palatability properties are not exceptional to miRN Asmutations effects. There are new insights courtesy of high-throughput sequencing and improved proteomic techniques that organisms’ complexity and adaptations are highly contributed by miRNAs containing regulatory networks. This article aims to expound on how rice miRNAs could be driving evolution of traits and highlight the latest miRNA research progress. Moreover, the review accentuates miRNAs grey areas to be addressed and gives recommendations for further studies.
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.

"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.

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.
Diabetes is a rapidly and serious health problem in Pakistan. This chronic condition is associated with serious long-term complications, including higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Aggressive treatment of hypertension and hyperlipideamia can result in a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes 1. Consequently pharmacist-led diabetes cardiovascular risk (DCVR) clinics have been established in both primary and secondary care sites in NHS Lothian during the past five years. An audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery at the clinics was conducted in order to evaluate practice and to standardize the pharmacists’ documentation of outcomes. Pharmaceutical care issues (PCI) and patient details were collected both prospectively and retrospectively from three DCVR clinics. The PCI`s were categorized according to a triangularised system consisting of multiple categories. These were ‘checks’, ‘changes’ (‘change in drug therapy process’ and ‘change in drug therapy’), ‘drug therapy problems’ and ‘quality assurance descriptors’ (‘timer perspective’ and ‘degree of change’). A verified medication assessment tool (MAT) for patients with chronic cardiovascular disease was applied to the patients from one of the clinics. The tool was used to quantify PCI`s and pharmacist actions that were centered on implementing or enforcing clinical guideline standards. A database was developed to be used as an assessment tool and to standardize the documentation of achievement of outcomes. Feedback on the audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery and the database was received from the DCVR clinic pharmacist at a focus group meeting.

global demand for palm oil.
Indonesia already provides 52% of the world’s oil
palm supply in 2014 but with investment support
from Malaysia and Singapore
11 million ha of oil palm plantations - owned by
Indonesian, Malaysian and Singaporean companies
- are exporting 33 million tons of palm oil, reaping
revenues of US$18.4 billion in 2014.
Oil palm is clearly a major driver of local, national
and regional economic growth.

Political Economy Study
Funded by DfID-UK (January-December
2015) – Extended to 2017
Aims to better inform decision makers with
an understanding of the on-the-ground
dynamics (economic, social, and political)
that are resulting in fire.
5. THINKING beyond the canopy
Sites and Methods
Riau Province
11 sites represent clearly
identifiable fire ignition points
Part of the largest fire events in
2013, 2014 and 2015
Methods
• Mapping, surveys, policy
reviews, FGDs, CBA and
network analysis.

8. THINKING beyond the canopy
Findings
The situation on the ground is really complex
Caused by multiple actors
• Government, private actors, local community and
non-state actors
Multiple land types
• State forest area, corporation concession,
private/community lands
• Peat and mineral soil
Multiple drivers
• Economy, politic, social and climate/weather
9. There are policies but not effective…..WHY?
Laws and regulations
Law 41 (1999) on Forestry
Government Regulation 4 (2001)
on Forest and Land Fires

Between-ness centrality: The most influential actors in
brokering land transaction
17. THINKING beyond the canopy
Corporate actors connected to their groups and elites at
local and national level
18. THINKING beyond the canopy
Fire Fighting VS Fire Prevention
Many government agencies prioritize fire fighting
(e.g. water bombing, rain-making) over fire
prevention (e.g. canal blocking, community-
based water management, conflict resolution,
spatial planning)
• Visible and creates many new income streams
through jobs, equipment and other payments
• Budget politic
Needs to shift to fire prevention for long-term solution
19. THINKING beyond the canopy
Key points
Many players benefit enormously from fire.
The scale of these financial benefits means
livelihoods alternatives need to be significant.
These players (elites or cukong) wear multiple hats
e.g. farmers, politicians, businessmen, government
officers and academician.
Company staff and sub-contractors may be
undermining their companies' corporate
commitments
Actors who get benefit are not those who suffer
from fire
20. THINKING beyond the canopy
Key points: Patronage Network
These actors exchange information and form
complex social networks. Elites can influence
decision making processes at district and
national levels.
Medium and large scale companies place former
high-ranking officers and eminent individuals as
commissionaires and advisors to liaise with
governments.
These elites form protective patronage networks
that hinder the government’s capacity.
21. THINKING beyond the canopy
Key Actions
1. Market demand for illegal land for plantations must be
reduced and eliminated.
2. Clear spatial plans must be developed and enforced
giving them incentives to manage their land in a
sustainable way.
3. The environmental costs of fire and haze must be
internalized.
4. Patronage networks must be reduced through
transparency, civil society engagement, anti-corruption
measures and an efficient government bureaucracy
5. Singapore and Malaysia need to share responsibility of
fire and haze as they share the profits from oil palm.
