This document outlines a presentation on a project proposal to pay street children to gather discarded cigarette filters and process them into insect-repellent curtains for international sale. It includes a title slide with the presenter's information, a 3-part thesis statement describing the benefits of the plan, descriptions of primary and secondary beneficiaries and how their needs would be met, the urgency of problems faced by street children, the environment, and users of pesticides/insecticides. It also includes a timeline, action plan, and proposed procedure for implementing the project.

Learning Objectives
By the end of today’s lecture, students should be able to:
Define the term toxic substance and provide examples
Define the term pesticide and provide examples
List the types of pesticides used outdoors and in homes and provide examples
Provide examples of specific chemical toxins found in common outdoor and indoor pesticides and describe human health impact
Explain the benefits to pesticide use in agriculture and other practices

Small Group Brainstorm!
Please get into groups of 3-4 and brainstorm the following question:
What are the advantages to using pesticides, even if they contain toxic substances?
Elect someone to share with the class
Toxic substances are hazardous to health and the environment
Toxic substance: any chemical or mixture that may be harmful to environment and to human health
Inhaled, swallowed, absorbed through skin
Naturally occurring toxins (poisonous substances coming from living organisms)
Certain plants like poinsettias, some wild mushrooms, berries
Toxic substances contained in most everyday household products synthetic (man-made)
Examples?
Non-toxic substances (safe to use, do not harm humans and the environment)
Examples?
There are several types of pesticides
Pesticide: any substance used to kill, repel, control pests (certain forms of plant or animal life)
Include several types:
Herbicides: destroy weeds, other unwanted vegetation
Insecticides: control wide variety of insects
Fungicides: prevent growth of molds, mildew
Disinfectants: preventing spread of bacteria
Compounds used to control mice, rats
Which of the following are pesticides?
Cleaners used to disinfect kitchen floor
Cleaning products used to remove mildew on bathroom tiles
Household plant sprays
Lawn and garden products to kill insects and weeds
Some swimming pool chemicals
Which type are each of these?
Many toxins/pesticides severely affect human health
DDT:
Affected organ systems: developmental, endocrine, hepatic, neurological, reproductive
Cancer classification: reasonably anticipated to be human carcinogen
Use: (prior to 1972 ban, but still in some countries) insect control in agriculture and control of malaria vector
Methylene chloride:
Affected organ systems: cardiovascular, hepatic, neurological
Cancer classification: Reasonably anticipated to be human carcinogen
Use: paint stripper, found in aerosol, pesticide products
Many toxins/pesticides severely affect human health
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB’s):

Today e-waste are becoming a major problem for the developing countries. E-waste is defined something
as a discarded parts of electronic devices which contains most of the times, hazardous chemicals which is
deadly for our environment, example is computer components. Green Computing is the study and practice
of designing, using, disposing and manufacturing electronic components in an eco-friendly manner and
Green Computing is one of the solution to tackle with this hazardous e-waste problem which is an emerging
concern towards the environment. The objective of this paper is to draw the attention towards the lack of
awareness about green computing or we can say how green computing policies is being ignored by
developing countries and how developed countries are adopting green IT policies seriously. This paper
also discusses the analysis which has been done on how the amount of e-waste has been increased in
developing countries in past years.

On 22 February 2022, Shardul Agrawala of the OECD Environment Directorate gave a presentation of the report "Global Plastics Outlook: Economic Drivers, Environmental Impacts and Policy Options" including its key findings along with four key levers to bend the plastics curve. This Outlook is the first report to comprehensively take stock of current plastics production, use and waste generation, uncover the underlying economic drivers and map the related environmental impacts on a global level. The report intends to help decision-makers understand the direction in which we are heading and assess which policies can support a more sustainable and circular management of plastic materials.
This was followed by a panel discussion with Prof. Roland Geyer, University of California, Santa Barbara, Bren School of Environmental Science & Management and Miranda Schnitger, Government Lead, Ellen MacArthur Foundation, with a Q&A session with Peter Borkey, Maarten Dubois and Elisa Lanzi, OECD.

street children, (c) minimize
environmental damage, and
(c) minimize the negative
effects of pesticides and
insecticides in homes and
buildings.
133. This proposal proposes 17
new ideas, uses 23 sources
of information, and seven
(7) theoretical frameworks.
134. There may be challenges in
project implementation
due to cultural
differences, as well as in
product sales due to export
restrictions.
138. WHEREAS this proposal can
benefit street children in
heavy-smoker countries
around the world who can be
directly contacted by AiU
scholars;
139. WHEREAS this proposal can
benefit households, buildings,
the environment, flora, and
fauna;
140. WHEREAS this proposal can be
easily replicated and
implement in other heavysmoker cities due to its low
technology and low capital;
141. WHEREAS this proposal can be
acceptable to potential
investors due to its potential
social and economic effects;
142. IT IS THEREFORE RECOMMENDED
