“[restoration] is restoring [peat] its functions, but,
accompanied by understanding in the level
of community support [who live] nearby.
When there are no supports from the
community, [restoration] is non-sense,
regardless of costs incurred, supports, [and]
policies, [if the community] nearby the
restoration area do not fully understand the
concept and goals, [then] the restoration
efforts will be meaningless…how the
[community] engage, the knowledge transfer,
[those are] all that matters on restoration.”](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

The role of education in changing behaviour for sustainability
Behaviour is what people do. People perform a host of environmentally appropriate and inappropriate behaviours every day.
Governments around the world have made numerous legal agreements that commit their countries to take responsibility for a suite of actions to change and move society towards sustainability. Such progress to sustainability depends on the behaviour of people in all walks of life, requiring changes in their way of thinking, living and working.
These background notes provide a theoretical framework for developing education programs that lead to behaviour change for sustainability.

Social Capital and Networks in Nature Conservation [SEAGA]
The document discusses social capital and networks in the conservation of Chek Jawa, a nature area in Singapore. It summarizes how in 2001, reclamation plans for Chek Jawa were deferred due to effective public consultation led by environmental civil society groups. These groups utilized social capital accumulated through networks, credibility, and trust to engage the public and state through non-confrontational strategies like guided walks, surveys, and online/media outreach. This landmark event was a watershed moment for environmental governance in Singapore and demonstrated the importance of social capital and networks for successful nature conservation.
Towards Greening Decisions on the University Campus: Initiatives, Importance ...
Universities as ‘small worlds’ are veritable places for promoting environmental friendly activities; being breeding grounds for future decision makers. They are characterized by activities that negatively influence our environment which are in three areas which are: energy usage, waste generation and transportation. This study utilized both exploratory and survey designs to investigate the initiatives relating to training, research, campus operation and community service, their importance and barriers to effective implementation in The Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria. The study found that implementing these initiatives has benefits associate with cost saving, employability, public image, quality assurance, and societal change. More than 70 percent of the respondents believed that implementing greening initiatives is very important. The study also revealed individual and institutional barriers in the achievement of this result. The most severe ones include: inadequate and sustainable awareness, ineffective policy, lack of knowledge and skills to handle relevant technology for greening. The study suggested that management should provide supports in the areas of policy-making and implementation, budgetary allocation and motivational structure to lead the way in the comity of universities.
objectives and principles of environmental education
This document outlines the objectives and principles of environmental education. The objectives are to develop awareness, knowledge, positive attitudes, skills in solving environmental problems, abilities to evaluate programs, and participation in protecting the environment. The principles emphasize taking a holistic, interdisciplinary approach and incorporating practical hands-on learning activities to understand environmental issues from local to global scales in a lifelong learning process. The goal is to cultivate environmentally responsible citizens.
Emerging trends in green technology

Economics of Peatlands Restoration in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia
by Dyah Puspitaloka and Yeon-Su Kim
Tropical peatlands holds 15-19% of global peat carbon with Indonesia as the largest contributor. However, many of Indonesia's peatlands are degraded into fire-prone and non-forest vegetation. Indonesian government is trying to restore these degraded peatlands within five years. There are also several peatland restoration projects carried out by private companies and non-governmental organizations with public and private investments. However, time required for peatland restoration will vary from a few years to more than a decade depending on the damage level and for that, restoration efforts will need to be sustained beyond project durations. Thus, it is important to assess restoration practices being implemented by different types of project proponents, and analyze their costs and effectiveness. These aspects have been rarely studied, and will be the focus of this study. Using peatland restoration projects in central Kalimantan as case studies, we will assess three different types of peatland restoration projects for 1) different restoration goals and strategies of project proponents; 2) different time required for peatland restoration and its cost-implications; 3) total restoration costs, including indirect costs (i.e. opportunity costs) and direct costs, and their temporal and social distributions. Results of this study can help design future peatland restoration projects in Indonesia.

This document provides an overview of the Global Mountain Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) Programme implemented in Nepal, Peru and Uganda from 2014-2017. The programme was led by UNDP, IUCN and UNEP and aimed to build the case for EbA through demonstrating its benefits. Key activities included participatory vulnerability assessments, pilot EbA measures across sectors like water and agriculture, and cost-benefit analyses. Lessons included how EbA secured environmental, social and economic benefits but required long-term planning and addressing non-climatic threats. The document also examines opportunities and challenges for upscaling EbA through policy changes and financing schemes.

The Dipecho Project aimed to strengthen disaster resilience in Nepal through community-based preparedness initiatives. The project worked in 3 districts over 2 years with a budget of €377,095. It trained over 13,000 community members on first aid, search and rescue, and establishing early warning systems. The project also helped build emergency infrastructure like embankments and retrofitted schools and hospitals to be disaster-resistant. The goal was to enhance communities' ability to reduce disaster impacts through collective action and create an enabling environment with supportive DRR policies.

1. Integrated rural development projects from the 1960s-1970s and integrated conservation and development projects from the 1980s onward provide lessons for REDD+ project design. Both suffered from trying to accomplish too much too fast and a lack of understanding of local socio-political contexts.
2. Landscape-scale projects since the mid-1990s in places like the Congo Basin aim to balance conservation and development goals across larger geographies. They emphasize long timeframes, capacity building, and addressing threats at multiple scales.
3. Conditional cash transfer programs demonstrate the potential for incentives to change behaviors like education enrollment, but designing effective programs requires defining clear target populations and conditions.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Climate Change All over the World .pptx
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
