Water is critical for meeting commitments of the Paris Agreement and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Our economies rely on water, with recent estimates putting the economic value of water and freshwater ecosystems at USD 58 trillion - equivalent to 60% of global GDP. At the same time, water related risks are increasing in frequency and scale in the context of climate change.
How are investments shaping our economies and societies exposure to water risk? What role can the financial system play in supporting water security? And how can increased understanding of how finance both impacts and depends on water resources spur action towards greater water security?

Altered Terrain: Colonial Encroachment and Environmental Changes in Cachar, A...PriyankaKilaniya
The beginning of colonial policy in the area was signaled by the British annexation of the Cachar district in southern Assam in 1832. The region became an alluring investment opportunity for Europeans after British rule over Cachar, especially after the accidental discovery of wild tea in 1855. Within this historical context, this study explores three major stages that characterize the evolution of nature. First, it examines the distribution and growth of tea plantations, examining their size and rate of expansion. The second aspect of the study examines the consequences of land concessions, which led to the initial loss of native forests. Finally, the study investigates the increased strain on forests caused by migrant workers' demands. It also highlights the crucial role that the Forest Department plays in protecting these natural habitats from the invasion of tea planters. This study aims to analyze the intricate relationship between colonialism and the altered landscape of Cachar, Assam, by means of a thorough investigation, shedding light on the environmental, economic, and societal aspects of this historical transformation.

"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.

9. What is Green Infrastructure?
Green Infrastructure - a broad
definition:
Building with nature
Maintain, enhance or restore
ecosystem services to
address societal challenges
Green roofs &
green walls
Bioswales
Green corridors
Urban forest Permeable surface
Green bridges &
eco-tunnels

Transport: such as ecological corridors (to preserver wildlife habitat),
green bridges, permeable pavement and rain gardens (for storm water
management).
Urban regeneration and Road Infrastructure Planning: such as
green roofs and green urban spaces to address water scarcity and the heat
island effects & greening the urban roads (i.e., road-side vegetation)
Water management: such as riverbed restoration for flood protection,
and sand dune restoration to prevent coastal erosion

creation of new wildlife
11. Benefits of Green Infrastructure (GI)
Interreg, Green Infrastructure Handbook
Mitigation of climate change and its
adverse effects on human society and activity
Strengthen infrastructure resilience to
climate-related disasters (i.e., protection
against floods and erosion, heatwave
prevention and mitigation)
Enable the restoration of biodiversity and
conservation of functional ecosystems
(i.e., soil functions, clean water supply, air
purification, climate regulation, nutrient
recycling, noise pollution reduction, etc.)
Application of Circular Economy Principles
to infrastructure
13. Urgency
• Resilience is a key part of sustainable and quality infrastructure
• Infrastructure cannot be resilient if it is poorly maintained
Barriers
• Lack of Information, valuation and Capacity
• Poor Governance and scale of NbS projects
• Insufficient Funding
Optimisation
• Government leadership in setting resilience expectations
• Asset management life-cycle and portfolio approach
• Making explicit resilience costs and trade-offs
Governance
• Micro and macro actions across the infrastructure lifecycle
• Linking resilience with low-carbon transition
• Infrastructure as a service to communities
• Aligning policy levers, actors and funding
Covid-19 calls for a new resilient infrastructure approach
14. Greening Governance and Role of Natural Capital
1. Strategic Planning: Linking Infrastructure plans to
the green agenda
• National, Sectorial
• Spatial /Landscape Planning (i.e. Urban Heating
island effect)
• Mainstreaming GI/Nbs Across sectors
• Korea, UK, California
2. Project prioritization appraisal & selection
• Economic appraisals
• Environment impact assessments
• Climate Proofing
• Ireland, France
4. Monitoring impact over
the asset lifecycle
• Using monitoring tools and
ex-post evaluation to oversee
environmental impacts and
costs
• Promoting the use of big data
for monitoring project
delivery and asset resilience
• Singapore, Switzerland
3. Delivery: Building capacity for
innovative infrastructure
delivery
• Capacity building & training
• Regulatory requirements
(codes/standards)
• Green Procur.

17. • Big data analytics (earth observation, remote sensing, Internet of things (IoT), cloud tech and machine learning) is
transforming the availability and use of information
• A number of alternative decision-making approaches have been developed, using big data and scenario planning as
their basis, that offer greater flexibility (e.g. real options analysis, robust-decision making, and adaptive planning)
• Availability of Copernicus data opening new application for resilient infrastructure also at city level
• Water height and flood management modelling builds on sensors (GPS, water level, radar for thermal images) to
collect data on the water level, resources, quality and water-related hazards, for a set geographical area. For example (GIH,
2020):
– Maeslant Storm Surge Barrier, the Netherlands. The operation of the barrier is fully automatic via a connection to a computer system
that links to weather and sea level data.
– WaterNSW Water Monitoring Network, Australia. Over 5 000 monitoring stations measure the quality and quantity of New South Wales
(NSW)’s rivers, streams, groundwater bores and dams. Over 1 300 of these stations deliver real-time data through NSW’s telemetry and
remote data capture networks.
– Oxford Flood Network. A project built in partnership with Nominet UK and ThingInnovations, comprising of 30 wireless water level
sensors to detect levels of water around the city to visualise flooding and river conditions.
• The use of big data analytics raise however a series of challenges that should be properly addressed
