Solid waste refers to the range of garbage arising from animal and human activities that are discarded as unwanted and useless. Solid waste is generated from industrial, residential and commercial activities. Wastes create deterioration of the environment through pollution and damages. One of the most important solutions to this problems is to produce less waste. A number of different techniques can be used to reduce the production of wastes. Solid waste management is a term that is used to refer to the process of collecting and treating solid wastes. It also offers solutions for recycling items that do not belong to garbage or trash.

Governing Low Carbon Transitions Presentation given by Adrian Smith at the BSA Climate Change Study Group Conference on 17 January 2011 at the British Library Conference Centre, London, UK.
This paper review how technology can be use to generate a more inclusive position both as instrument of dominion and emancipartion. This positive view of technology will be discuss with particular emphasis on the interrelationship between technology and quality of life that will bring about steady improvements in living conditions. This paper also talks about the usefulness of science, technology and lnnovations (STI) in adding value to our social system. The ability of local firms and enterprises to access technological know-how is fundamental in providing products and services. The use of computer in enhancing production, transportation, energy, commerce, education and health. STI will foster food production and accessibility to good health. This paper concluded that we cannot suppress change as a nation, we need to stop finding reasons why things cant be done and find the reasons why they must be done as well as the right way to do them before we wipe out ourselves.
Navegar por la complejidad de los sistemas modernos presenta desafíos únicos que requieren enfoques innovadores y no lineales. Por eso, exploramos cómo las carteras de proyectos de experimentación pueden ayudar a enfrentar problemas complejos que no tienen una solución única o tecnicista, como por ejemplo el cambio climático, la desigualdad social, la salud pública o la seguridad alimentaria.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

6. Consumer habits and social practices
7. Political power and access to decision-making
These interacting processes effectively lock-out the spread of sustainable innovations.
Innovation policy for sustainability needs to attend to these structural impediments,
e.g. regulations, redirected investment, new market rules.
Need to create spaces less susceptible to these processes where radical innovation
can be developed
Inelastic systems ‘lock-in’ through co-evolving path-dependencies:
Locking-in to unsustainability: socio-technical regimes
7. Niche-based approaches
Create green niches to experiment with a ‘vision’ for the sustainable regime they
might prefigure. Green niches:
• Create new knowledge and diversity
• Improve socio-technical performance
• Provide resources and nurture markets
• Explore future potential
• Build supportive constituencies and legitimacy
• Understand sustainability differently
Model of development: early idealists, systems builders, then mainstream interest.
Niche growth displaces unsustainable regimes under tension
