Oggi possiamo salvare il clima e conquistare un futuro di benessere per noi e i nostri figli. Bruciare i combustibili fossili per procurarsi energia e calore ha portato la concentrazione di CO2 in atmosfera ai livelli di 3 milioni di anni fa. Dobbiamo riconquistare l'energia, puntare sulle fonti rinnovabili e l’efficienza energetica. Occorre investire le risorse pubbliche e private nel nostro futuro.

The purpose of this slide is to explore the significance of introducing a carbon pricing
policy to Malaysia and to evaluate its potential role in supporting the country's efforts towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their corresponding targets. By examining the implications of carbon pricing from an economic, environmental, and social perspective, this assignment will determine how a carbon pricing policy could help Malaysia reach its SDG objectives more effectively and efficiently.

Climate Change All over the World .pptxsairaanwer024
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

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
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.
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.
Prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii infection in domestic animals in District Ban...Open Access Research Paper
Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular zoonotic protozoan parasite, infect both humans and animals population worldwide. It can also cause abortion and inborn disease in humans and livestock population. In the present study total of 313 domestic animals were screened for Toxoplasma gondii infection. Of which 45 cows, 55 buffalos, 68 goats, 60 sheep and 85 shaver chicken were tested. Among these 40 (88.88%) cows were negative and 05 (11.12%) were positive. Similarly 55 (92.72%) buffalos were negative and 04 (07.28%) were positive. In goats 68 (98.52%) were negative and 01 (01.48%) was recorded positive. In sheep and shaver chicken the infection were not recorded.

at the Leaders Summit on Climate in April
“At the same time, our effort to address climate change is no longer a
constraint on our economy. Rather, it will be the driving force of the long-
term dynamic growth of, not only Japan’s economy, but also the global
economy. With this vision in mind, in the fall of last year, immediately
after assuming the office of Prime Minister, I declared that Japan will
aim for net-zero by 2050.
Japan will take a big step toward overcoming this global issue. Japan
aims to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 46 percent in
fiscal year 2030 from its fiscal year 2013 levels, setting an ambitious
target which is aligned with the long-term goal of achieving net-zero by
2050. Furthermore, Japan will continue strenuous efforts in its
challenge to meet the lofty goal of cutting its emission by 50
percent.”

Legislate a long-term direction and
promote efforts and investments
towards decarbonization
⚫ Stipulating the long-term commitment of achieving carbon
neutrality by 2050 enables all stakeholders to accelerate their
actions to combat climate change.
⚫ Placing “Citizens” at the top of the list that enumerates “the
parties involved”, making this basic principle an unprecedented
one. This also clarifies that public understanding and cooperation
is a prerequisite to reach carbon neutrality.
Open data on corporate emissions,
leading to EGS investments
Promote the introduction of
renewable energy that will lead to
regional development
⚫ Allows municipalities to establish areas where “Regional
Decarbonization Promotion Projects” are promoted, which are
certified from the local government.
⚫ Introduces special measures to such projects, such as a one-stop
system for related administrative procedures to facilitate smooth
consensus building in the region and promote the introduction of
renewable energy that contribute to the region.
⚫ Digitalizing the reporting system and abolishing the data
disclosure request makes the period which takes to publicize the
data shorter, from about two years to less than a year.
⚫ Swift data disclosure enables for the corporate data to be utilized
more often, and lead to companies’ efforts to decarbonization in
corporate management.
Revised Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures
Stipulated the carbon-neutral target by 2050 as the basic principle to clarify its legal
ground and ensure its policy continuity.

2. To be achieved by maximizing the use of regionally available resources, including renewable
energy sources.
3. Presents solutions to regional issues, contributing to regional revitalization.

✔Despite a number of significant obstacles (cost, securing

has managed to maximize the use of its limited land surface,
attaining the world’s highest rate of solar power generation
per area. Going forward, Japan will continue to overcome
such obstacles by optimizing the use of regionally
available renewable energy sources.
✔According to MOEJ’s estimate, more than 90% of
municipalities have a negative energy balance (2015).
✔Stimulating regional economies will be essential in effectively
drawing from an abundant source of renewable energy.
