Erosion presentation
Erosion is the process that breaks down large geological formations like mountains into smaller pieces through weathering and transport. It creates beautiful rock formations but can also be destructive. Erosion occurs globally and is exacerbated by human activities like construction of seawalls. It impacts the environment by increasing pollution and sedimentation in waterways, degrading habitats, and reducing the ability of land to hold water. Long-term erosion is unsustainable and poses risks to global food security as it depletes nutrients from soil over generations. Potential solutions include more sustainable agricultural and logging practices, reducing waste, and environmental advocacy efforts.
11th hour review
Shweta Amin submitted a review of the documentary film "The 11th Hour" to her professor Prof. Shivprasad for her Communication Skills class. The 11th Hour examines environmental issues on a global scale and calls for widespread change. It shows how human activity like pollution, deforestation, and overpopulation are damaging the Earth's ecosystems and threatening human survival by depleting natural resources. The film features scientists, environmentalists, and thinkers who explain the cultural and economic conditions that have led to this ecological crisis. It also devotes time to exploring potential solutions like sustainable technologies and systems designed around natural principles.
This Changes Everything Article
1) Dominican University hosted a pre-screening of the documentary film "This Changes Everything" as part of the One Earth Film Festival, which aims to increase understanding of climate change and sustainability.
2) The film, directed by Naomi Klein's husband Avi Lewis, is based on Klein's book of the same name and focuses on viewing climate change as an opportunity to build a better world rather than just a crisis.
3) After the film, there was a panel discussion with six Dominican University professors to discuss the issues raised in the film and generate communication on climate change as the Green Community Connections' goal for the event.
Reflection about Environmental Destruction
Habitat destruction and fragmentation are negatively impacting the environment through the elimination of habitats, increasing endangered species, reducing biodiversity, and decreasing plant and forest coverage. This is occurring due to natural causes like volcanoes and glaciers, as well as human causes such as urban expansion and deforestation. To reduce these effects, we need to set aside protected natural areas, stop cutting down rainforests, and limit urban sprawl into animal habitats. Additionally, all individuals have a responsibility to conserve natural resources like water, electricity, food and forests in a sustainable manner by avoiding overconsumption and waste, as the planet's resources must be shared equitable among all people and species to ensure future generations can also enjoy natural benefits.

Four schools of thought in cultural geography (to help in school)
This document outlines four schools of thought in cultural geography: environmental determinism, which believes the physical environment dictates culture; possibilism, which believes cultural heritage is as important as the environment; environmental perception, which focuses on how humans perceive their environment; and cultural determinism, which believes culture is more important than the environment in shaping human actions. Examples are provided for each school of thought.
Lecture 5 - Art, Place and the Environment
This document provides an overview of an art lecture about art, place, and the environment. It discusses how the nature-culture divide is now seen as false, and how humans are part of the natural world. Environmental art has existed throughout history but with different concerns depending on the era. Since the 1960s and 70s, social, political, and scientific shifts changed how we view the environment. The lecture highlights various artists who have engaged with environmental themes in their work in order to express ecological and political concerns, though not all were environmentalists. It examines different approaches artists have taken depending on their interests.
Song, Video and Article Analysis
The document contains summaries of several songs related to environmental protection and climate change:
1) The first song discusses air and water pollution problems and how economic growth should not harm the environment.
2) The second song encourages caring for the environment, which provides fresh air and was given by God. It says factories cause pollution and hinder development.
3) The third song calls people to act on climate change and says words alone are not enough; action is needed to enact solutions.
4) The fourth song calls on working together to save Mother Nature and find solutions rather than causes of obstruction.
5) The fifth song discusses protecting natural wonders and civilization from pollution, drought, starvation and war through
2.4 environmental factors that affect liveability LIPA
There are several environmental factors that can reduce the liveability of a place. These include natural hazards, conflicts, population pressures, land degradation, and pollution from overconsumption. Pollution in particular comes from various sources in cities and rural areas and can harm air and water quality. This affects communities' liveability. A case study analysis explores these issues through investigating the air and water quality of a specific city, such as levels of pollution and their impacts. Improving environmental conditions can increase a city's liveability.
2.4a environmental factors that affect liveability LIPA
There are several environmental factors that can reduce the liveability of a place. These include natural hazards, conflicts, population pressures, and land degradation. Pollution and overconsumption of resources also negatively impact liveability by reducing air and water quality. Choosing a city to analyze, factors like the population size, maps showing location, and pictures depicting characteristics help to understand the context. Air and water quality issues are evaluated based on measurements of particulate matter and other chemicals. Specific sources of pollution are identified and recommendations are provided on improving environmental conditions.
Climate change statements
Climate change poses a major challenge this century due to human activities clearly impacting the climate, though economic growth and environmental protection are seen as incompatible by some and accurate climate projections can be made. International agreements on climate change have been criticized as symbolic rather than substantive, while living sustainably is viewed as a personal choice.
Advocacy on Climate Change
The document discusses climate change and its effects. It defines climate change as a change in average weather conditions over a long period of time. It then discusses the main causes of climate change as human activities like fossil fuel use and deforestation. The document notes that the Philippines has been particularly affected by climate change, with more frequent and severe tropical storms in recent years. Some effects of climate change mentioned are rising sea levels, melting glaciers, and more extreme weather. The document concludes by discussing some potential solutions to address climate change.
Paper 1 Rewrite
This paper discusses the challenges of climate change and potential solutions. The main challenges are population growth, which increases environmental impacts; the slow response of ecosystems to changes; and international stalemates in climate agreements. Potential solutions include using public transportation to reduce emissions, consuming fewer and more sustainable products, and holding companies responsible for environmental impacts to induce cleaner practices. Small individual efforts can help address climate change issues.
Environmental Art
Robert Smithson's Spiral Jetty (1970) is an environmental artwork located in Great Salt Lake, Utah. Constructed out of mud, salt crystals, and basalt rocks in a coil formation, it examines humanity's relationship with nature and the effects of entropy. Environmental art seeks to improve connections with and understanding of the natural world through works that incorporate or are inspired by natural materials, landscapes, and ecological processes. Pioneers of the genre in the 1960s-70s included Smithson, Nancy Holt, Walter de Maria, and Andy Goldsworthy. Their site-specific works explored themes of nature and culture, permanence and impermanence. Photography is often used to document environmental artworks that change over time
Kurppa2 Nordic Food
Public catering has great potential to influence eating habits and direct people towards more sustainable food choices. Currently, public procurement supports environmental values by recommending organic food. Over 90% of climate change impacts and 70% of eutrophication impacts are caused by raw material production. Choosing certain food items can simultaneously decrease both impacts. Public procurement of food could support sustainable local food production and circulation of materials if production procedures were publicly known.
Ecological2
The document discusses ecological footprints and how they can be integrated into primary school science curricula. It defines ecological footprint as a measure of human demand on Earth's resources compared to its capacity for regeneration. It notes that while developed countries pursue economic growth, this compromises environmental protection. The document then provides an example lesson plan for teaching students about ecological footprints. It involves activities like slicing an apple to represent Earth's limited land and resources. Students also take a quiz to measure their own footprint and discuss how to be more responsible. The goal is to empower students to take action on global environmental issues through developing critical thinking skills.
Why Is Geography Important?
This document discusses the importance of geography and some of the major environmental threats facing the planet. It describes two main types of geography - physical geography, which includes natural phenomena like volcanoes and earthquakes, and human geography, which examines how humans inhabit and interact with different environments. The document also outlines several issues like pollution, global warming, and deforestation that are putting stress on the environment and climate. It emphasizes that human activities involving fossil fuels, industrialization, and agriculture are major contributors to these problems, and suggests individual actions like reducing consumption and recycling to help address them.
Letter on Kyoto
The letter responds to concerns about Sweden's actions on carbon dioxide emissions. It acknowledges that the US President takes global climate change seriously and has directed a Cabinet-level review to thoroughly examine climate change issues based on the best science and sound economics. The review group regularly assesses progress in its efforts to complete the review and make recommendations to the President.
Bas04 flexibility
This document discusses the importance of flexibility and adaptability for civilization. It argues that civilizations must accommodate diversity, unpredictability, and environmental changes to survive. Flexibility allows civilizations to adapt to shifting conditions rather than resisting change. Planning methods also need flexibility to handle dynamic natural and social systems. The document provides examples of how northern regions historically adapted flexibly to harsh climates through diverse livelihoods. It advocates for flexible, collaborative, mosaic-style planning to create resilient regions that can respond and adapt to challenges.
Environmental Art
The document discusses environmental art and outlines an art project for students. It defines environmental art as artwork that informs and interprets nature while reinforcing the environmental movement. The project aims to discuss social and ecological activism through creating works of environmental art to display for the community. Students will research environmental issues and artists like Andy Goldsworthy before making their own art using natural and recycled materials, which will be evaluated based on the depth of thinking and participation.
Environmental art teachers resource
This document provides background information and teaching resources to accompany a new sculpture called "Fingermaze" installed in Hove Park, England. It includes:
1. Background on the commission of the sculpture and artist Chris Drury's work focusing on nature and environmental themes.
2. An overview of the genres of land art and environmental art highlighting examples from the 1960s to today.
3. Teaching notes to accompany a PowerPoint presentation on the artist's works, providing context for each slide and discussing themes of landscape and human impact.
Environmental Art
Environmental art involves outdoor artworks designed to become part of the natural landscape. Some key environmental artists mentioned are Andy Goldsworthy, known for works using natural materials like seaweed and stones, Robert Smithson, creator of the iconic Spiral Jetty sculpture, and John Dahlsen, who has works blending into coastal environments. The document also briefly discusses repurposing old objects and recycling.
Global warming final
This document discusses the impact of global warming. It begins with an introduction that defines global warming and explains why it is important to understand. The main body then describes the effects of global warming on nature, including increasing storm strength, rising sea levels, and species habitat changes. It also discusses the economic impacts, such as increased agriculture costs, flood defense challenges, migration pressures, and transportation and development impacts. The conclusion emphasizes that countries, scientists, and people need to take action to address this problem.

Students will research environmental issues and artists like Andy Goldsworthy before making their own art using natural and recycled materials, which will be evaluated based on the depth of thinking and participation.
Environmental art teachers resource
This document provides background information and teaching resources to accompany a new sculpture called "Fingermaze" installed in Hove Park, England. It includes:
1. Background on the commission of the sculpture and artist Chris Drury's work focusing on nature and environmental themes.
2. An overview of the genres of land art and environmental art highlighting examples from the 1960s to today.
3. Teaching notes to accompany a PowerPoint presentation on the artist's works, providing context for each slide and discussing themes of landscape and human impact.
Environmental Art
Environmental art involves outdoor artworks designed to become part of the natural landscape. Some key environmental artists mentioned are Andy Goldsworthy, known for works using natural materials like seaweed and stones, Robert Smithson, creator of the iconic Spiral Jetty sculpture, and John Dahlsen, who has works blending into coastal environments. The document also briefly discusses repurposing old objects and recycling.

As able-bodied individuals, we live in a society that regularly and easily accommodates
our every need. As such, we often forget the privilege that this entitles us.
The following list includes examples of the benefits those of us who are able-bodied —
i.e. not physically disabled, chronically ill, severely obese or otherwise physically limited
— experience. (Cognitive ability, a.k.a. neurotypical privilege also exists, but deserves its
own article, so will not be included in this list).
Keeping these things in mind will help us to relate to those among us who encounter
barriers due to physical limitations and to gain more understanding of what they go
through on a daily basis.

Attitudes to planetary stewardship and transformation in G20 countries. Commissioned by the Global Commons Alliance. Produced by Ipsos MORI.
COP21 Article
The document discusses the author's experience becoming concerned about climate change as a young person and their efforts to raise awareness and take action. It describes how at age 13, they attended their first international youth environmental conference, where they realized their concerns were related to climate justice and future generations. The author founded a website to educate young people on environmental issues and solutions. They have continued attending conferences, speaking on issues like plastic pollution in oceans, and advocating for including youth voices and sustainable solutions.
Global Commons Alliance: Survey
This document summarizes the results of a survey conducted among citizens in G20 countries about their attitudes toward protecting the global commons and transforming society. The key findings are:
1) Most people (73%) believe the planet is close to tipping points due to human actions and are worried (58%) about the state of the global commons.
2) The vast majority (83%) want to do more to protect nature in the future.
3) While many (59%) recognize the need for energy transition, few (8%) understand the scale of societal transformation needed this decade to safeguard the global commons.
4) Most people (74%) support prioritizing well-being
Introduction to HEI
This document provides an overview of the unit on human-environment interaction. It discusses how humans both positively and negatively impact the environment through three key relationships: adapting to their surroundings, depending on environmental resources, and modifying their habitat. Some examples of human impacts include clearing land for agriculture, bringing water into homes, and adjusting clothing for different climates.
Policy and political engagement: Entanglement? Responsibility? Opportunity?
This document discusses the potential role of anthropology and anthropologists in climate policy and political discussions. It argues that anthropologists are uniquely positioned to address the human dimensions of climate change due to their holistic perspective spanning various temporal and social scales. While scholarly organizations face disadvantages in directly influencing policy, the document outlines several strategies anthropologists could employ, including developing coalitions, educating the public, networking with other experts, and utilizing insider connections. It emphasizes the responsibility of anthropologists to share knowledge about climate change and its human impacts.

Posthuman Environments
This document discusses posthuman environments and technological change from the perspective of posthumanism. It notes that defining posthuman environments requires defining the limits of technology, as technologies shape our existence and environmental interactions. Posthumanism studies these environmental interactions. The document also discusses key issues in the environmental ethics debate, like the level of concern for non-human life and whether societal change or technological fixes are better strategies to address environmental risks. It provides examples like climate change documentaries and conferences to illustrate applied issues and suggests further research topics.

Phase III Presentation III
The water crisis in New York City has reached a critical point. Within the next few years, the city is projected to run out of its main freshwater sources, the Catskill/Delaware Watersheds and Croton Watershed, due to increasing global demand for water. An international council will meet to discuss plans to send astronauts to Mars to search for water there. Global water demand is expected to increase 50% by 2050 compared to current usage, while only 2.5% of the world's water is fresh. Many regions will face severe water scarcity by 2025. The post-Black Swan events and solutions for New York City's water crisis remain to be seen.
UX Audit
Instagram Stories allows users to create and share photos and videos that disappear after 24 hours. The summary analyzes Instagram Stories' features compared to competitors like Snapchat and TikTok. Key insights found that Instagram has more customization options than competitors but could improve its layering system when combining assets and auto-save mid-editing. A revision plan proposes fixing these issues and adding closed captioning.
Phase III Presentation II
An alien species called the Xylems arrives on Earth and provides humanity with the ability to share collective memory through a pyramid technology. This allows instant sharing of knowledge and skills between individuals. The United Nations works to establish relations with the Xylems. A Russian spy seeks to steal the memory-sharing secrets to allow authoritarian control over large groups. Scientists Paulina and Alex Smithe make first contact and learn from the Xylems. Clinton Hill changes as education is redefined and knowledge can now be downloaded, while some resist and form separate communities that retain traditional learning.
Phase III Presentation 1
The document discusses black swan events, which are unexpected occurrences with extreme impacts. Examples provided include the rise of the internet, 9/11, and the 2008 financial crisis. A black swan event in the housing sector could be a future recession. The COVID-19 pandemic has also acted as a black swan event, causing virus outbreaks, travel restrictions, and decreased restaurant sales. Future potential black swan events discussed include nuclear war, contact with aliens, and rising sea levels.
Phase II Presentation 1
This document outlines the second phase of a project focusing on the identity, memory, and wealth distribution of Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. It includes proposed interview questions about living in and visiting Clinton Hill, a map tracking graffiti locations, images showing how Clinton Hill has changed over time, and proposed next steps such as conducting ethnographic interviews and creating non-traditional maps to depict memories.
Phase II Presentation 2
The document discusses various aspects of the Clinton Hill neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York including its wealth distribution, demographics, historic districts, gentrification trends, graffiti issues, preservation methods, copyright law, and interviews with local residents. Key points from the interviews include favorite memories like food, diversity and spring walks, while least favorite things mentioned rats, the G train, safety issues and high taxes. The architecture, proximity to Pratt Institute and family-oriented feel make Clinton Hill unique according to some residents.
Reading Presentation 2: Narie Laure Ryan, Space, Place and Story
The document discusses the relationship between narrative and space/place in three main ways:
1. It defines the concepts of space and place, explaining that space is mathematical while place incorporates social and cultural meaning. Narratives can help create a sense of place or mourn its loss.
2. It examines the referential connection between stories and real-world locations, where referencing actual places in legends or novels can blend fiction and nonfiction. Digital technologies now allow stories to be mapped to physical locations.
3. It explores the physical connection between narrative and space through performances that commemorate real historical events in the actual locations they occurred. Museum exhibits represent space to tell stories that happened elsewhere.
Phase I Presentation
This document contains information about Jacqueline Madrigal, a 41-year-old Hispanic American woman living in Brooklyn, NY. It provides details about her personal history, including previous addresses in Illinois and New York, family members, estimated income, and contact information. It also discusses how she and her husband bought a house in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn in 1999 for $270,000 after getting married in their late 20s/early 30s, which would be worth over $400,000 today due to housing price increases in the neighborhood over the past 20 years. Additionally, the document examines scam calls targeting the Clinton Hill area and how scammers obtain personal details to conduct their operations.
Reading Presentation 3: An Atlas of Radical Cartography
This document provides an overview of the book "An Atlas of Radical Cartography" which contains 10 maps and 10 essays about various social issues. The maps subvert conventional cartography to promote social change. The document discusses several of the maps included in the atlas, such as a map of the US-Mexico border region that exposes migration paths, a map of a German immigration detention center that depicts the dehumanizing experience of immigrants, and a map of the Los Angeles water system that shows connections across scales. The overall purpose of the atlas is to act as a primer on identity, land use, imprisonment, energy, and migration issues through radical reimaginings of maps.

Reading Presentation 1: Paul James, notes.
- 1. Paul James, Urban Sustainability in Theory and Practice, notes. Team 1
- 2. Part 1: Setting the Global-Local Scene 1. Confronting a world in crisis ● A common tension that people argue about is ‘social change for sustainability.’ ● Changing the world is an aspiration, sustaining the world is a necessity ● Without specifying what is good, what is to be changed, and what is to be sustaining, aspiring to both becomes contradictory ● Sustainability means conditions of enduring continuity (consistency), social change causes discontinuities (disruption)
- 3. Use of Language ● Using conflicting concepts together has become our dominant way of speaking ● Attention needs to be payed to how we describe these issues ● Rhetoric needs to be connected to practice (empty words otherwise)
- 4. About This Book ● This book will be used to understand concrete ways on how practitioners can best go about creating a change amidst rushing global change and the increased urge for sustainability ● Practitioners are important, they are the people who act ● Three fields of action ○ Civil Society (including universities and non-government organizations) ○ Governance Organizations (including municipalities) ○ Business
- 5. Questions ● How can we improve the common phrase, ‘social change for sustainability’ in order to reflect the intended message without contradiction? ● What are the ways we can engage and explore the tension and conflict inherently existing within the phrase, “social change for sustainability”? Can this be done by introducing off the wall ideas not directly related to these topics in order to generate new ideas to drive both pieces of this equation? ● How does social change generate discontinuities and how does it block enduring sustainability?
- 6. ● How can social change generate discontinuities and how can it block enduring sustainability? Air pollution, deforestation, the sixth great extinction, ocean plastic waste, and the consequences of a climate in crisis all originate from one driving force: consumption. The demands that our “needs” place on the natural systems that sustain us are in an unprecedented state of affect. As humans, we love stuff — or more to the point, we love being in love with things, we love having an easy and convenient life, and so it’s easy for us to be encouraged to buy, own, and discard one thing for the next best thing.

I notice the shine of the rocks on the pier and see them sparkle like jewels, did man make it this way? Green moss at the foot of the pier is the lushest shades of green. Water brings life and man takes it away. From liquid to living to solid and grey. From grey to green to grey again. I am at the end of this connection. I notice the tracks on the pier and at the end a rundown trolley car..left ..will it spring back to life ever again? A distant buoy dings with a meditative consistency. Ding...dong...ding dong..swaying back and forth as ferries go past. I reach the end of the tracks
