This document discusses ecological footprint and renewable energy sources including solar, wind, and biomass energy. It defines ecological footprint as the environmental impact of a person, business, or community. It describes active and passive solar energy and how solar panels can convert sunlight to electricity. It also explains how wind turbines convert wind energy to electricity and how biomass energy can be derived from organic materials and plants to produce biogas.
This document provides an overview of the sustainable design principles utilized in the Village Homes residential development in Davis, California. It discusses how the developers designed the community to be centered around people rather than automobiles by narrowing streets, incorporating shared green spaces and agricultural land, and orienting homes to maximize passive solar gain. Specific sustainable features discussed include super insulated walls, passive solar water heating, and photovoltaic solar arrays. The document argues that rethinking conventional residential development approaches can improve quality of life while reducing environmental impacts and costs.
This document discusses lessons learned from recent attempts at planning sustainable communities. It provides an overview of frameworks for understanding sustainability, including One Planet Living and LEED-ND. The primary challenges to achieving net-zero communities are also examined. Lastly, it emphasizes integrating sustainability into all aspects of the planning process from the beginning.
Another set of slides I use in class - this time to teach the students about Sustainability. I use Interface as a case study and cover the 7 fronts of Mount Sustainability.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

The document discusses the concept of sustainable development. It provides definitions from the Brundtland Report and others, explaining that sustainable development meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It also discusses the related concepts of fairness, equity, intergenerational equity, environmental quality, and ecological footprint. Examples of sustainable development projects and initiatives are provided.
This document discusses various sustainable development projects undertaken by TERI (The Energy and Resources Institute). It provides details of TERI's Eco-City project in Navi Mumbai which aims to reduce the city's carbon emissions. It also describes programs providing electricity access in rural areas through biomass gasification and solar micro-grids. Another initiative discussed is a nutri-garden pilot project in Maharashtra to address malnutrition among tribal children. The document summarizes TERI's work on sustainable development affecting communities through principles like education, healthcare, poverty alleviation and more efficient public services.
Sustainable housing development assignmentJäkê Čhŷį Śêrñ
This document discusses the lack of education on sustainable housing development in the construction industry. It notes that lecturers do not see sustainable development as important, and the public views it as irrelevant. Due to this lack of education, stakeholders lack knowledge about sustainable housing concepts and do not consider environmental impacts. The document recommends educating stakeholders and the public by including sustainable development as a core subject in tertiary education and talks. It emphasizes using local resources and examples to make lessons relevant, and encouraging active learning through student comments and incentives for lecturers.
This presentation gathers the results from Sitra's study on scientific support for sustainable development practices, written by Mr Roope Kaaronen in October 2016.
The intention of this project is to gain a working understanding of the nature of a ferry terminal and the intrinsic details of how its infrastructural network could shape the development of Ijede community, Lagos, Nigeria. It is hoped that this design would lead to fitting architectural interventions, that creates an ambience which eases peoples phobia for water transport and also providing an efficient means of transport
The document outlines 18 principles of sustainability from the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development. These principles state that people are entitled to a healthy life in harmony with nature, development should not undermine future generations, and nations have a sovereign right to use their own resources without causing environmental damage beyond their borders. The principles also cover international environmental cooperation, reducing unsustainable consumption, public participation in environmental issues, integrating environmental protection into development, and recognizing indigenous knowledge.
Thesis -International Cruise Terminal in GoaSanah Patel
This document provides an overview of a thesis on designing an international passenger cruise terminal in Mormugao, Goa. It includes an introduction to cruise tourism, the need for studying this topic, the aims and objectives of the thesis, its scope and limitations, and the methodology. The introduction defines cruise tourism as traveling for leisure to various destinations on a ship. It notes that India's main international cruise destinations currently are Mumbai, Goa and Cochin, but that the existing terminal buildings do not meet international standards. The thesis aims to design a new terminal in Goa that can serve as an intermediate port for international cruises and a destination for domestic cruises.
The document discusses the concept of sustainable development. It defines sustainable development as development that meets the present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their needs. The pillars of sustainable development are identified as social development, economic development, environmental protection, and cultural diversity. The principles of a sustainable society are outlined as respecting communities and life, improving quality of life, conserving resources and diversity, minimizing resource depletion, and changing attitudes.
Green economy aims to increase investments and growth while substantially reducing carbon footprints. It promotes resource efficiency, clean technologies, and sustainable production and consumption patterns. A green economy is driven by investments that reduce emissions, enhance efficiency, and prevent biodiversity loss. It emphasizes the intersection between environment and economy.
This document discusses various aspects of sustainable development at the neighborhood level, including water, waste management, green space, food, and energy. It emphasizes meeting environmental, economic, and social goals simultaneously (the triple bottom line). Some key sustainable practices mentioned are rainwater harvesting, composting, farmers markets, green roofs, solar panels, recycled and local building materials, and forms of renewable energy like wind and solar.
HOLOJAY is a type of holographic display that utilizes light diffraction to create a virtual three dimensional image of an object. Holographic displays are unique from other forms of 3D imaging in that they do not require the aid of any special glasses or external equipment for a viewer to see the image.
HOLOJAY is a great platform for grabbing a lot of attention in any busy commercial setting. With its measurements of less than two feet wide and one foot in height, it lets you tap into the curiosity of anyone passing by, making them stop and stare at your display by applying the experience of mixed reality.
