The document discusses three key steps to achieving true sustainability on Earth:
1) Recognizing the total scale of human activity and that we are already using 150% of the planet's capacity to regenerate resources.
2) Acknowledging the interconnectedness of sustainability issues like climate change, energy, food, water, population, and the environment.
3) Recognizing that failure to balance human demands with Earth's capacity already has serious consequences for people today through extreme weather and food prices, and worse is to come if human activity is not reduced.

CLIMATE CHANGE AND CRITICAL GEOPOLITICS: WHITHER GLOBAL LEADERSHIP FOR MITIGA...TANKO AHMED fwc
This case study deliberates on the need for world governments, corporations and activists to form a united front against impending climate change catastrophes. It discusses causes, consequences and alleviation of mega disasters and inquires on common and shared responsibilities, predicaments, and smart utilization of global human and material resources. Theories of human response to sudden mass disruption and displacement often reckon with principles and practices in aid of managing mega disasters and critical geopolitics. A literature survey extracts serious concern and trends on traditional fixations of spatial imaginations hindering workable resolutions. The case study therefore elicits response to the need for global policies and strategies as nations would chaotically flow into one another in tragic mishandling of disasters. A stakeholders’ triangle of salvation with governments, corporations and activists may confront an impending Climageddon to provide feasible resolution to an end time Toba Event Hypothesis consistent with the climate change debacle.

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.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.

3. Sustainable development, as that term is commonly
used and understood, means making continued economic and
social development more resource efficient and less
detrimental to the environment. But making development
more sustainable, while highly desirable, is not the same
thing as actually achieving sustainability. As we plan and
carry out human development programs we must ensure that
our aggregated demands upon the planet’s resources do not
exceed the earth’s capacity to supply them.
5. 1. The first step in achieving true
sustainability is recognition of the total
scale of human activity. The global
footprint network estimates that we are
already using 150 percent of the earth’s
capacity to regenerate resources, and that
does not take into account non-renewable
resources, such as fossil fuels.
6. 2. The next step in achieving
true sustainability is acknowledging
the interconnectedness of all the
various subsets of
sustainability. Climate change,
energy, food, water, population, and
the environment are all inter-related,
and efforts to address one challenge
often exacerbate other global
challenges.
7. 3. The third and crucial
step is recognizing that our
failure to balance human
demands with the capacity of
the earth has serious
consequences for people today,
not just future
generations. Extreme weather
patterns and soaring food prices
are products of an over-heated,
over-subscribed planet, and
they are a sign that much worse
is to come unless we reduce the
total scale of human activity.
8. • WHAT IS GLOBAL
WARMING?
Global warming is the increase
of earth's average surface temperature
due to effect of greenhouse gases,
such as carbon dioxide emissions from
burning fossil fuels or from
deforestation, which trap heat that
would otherwise escape from earth.
this is a type of greenhouse effect.
9.
10. Climate change, also called global warming, refers to the rise in
average surface temperatures on Earth. An overwhelming scientific
consensus maintains that climate change is due primarily to the human
use of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide and other greenhouse
gases into the air.
11. THE CLIMATE CHANGE CHALLENGE
Research has shown that the level of
carbon dioxide (CO2) released into the
atmosphere has increased significantly
since the beginning of the industrial era.
Unless we do something to reduce the
amount of CO2 entering the atmosphere,
the world will experience the effects of
climate change.
12. What are the causes of climate change?
The primary cause of climate change is the
burning of fossil fuels, such as oil and coal, which
emits greenhouse gases into the atmosphere—
primarily carbon dioxide.

transnational as “those persons who
having migrated from one nation-
state to another live their lives
across borders, participating
simultaneously in social relations
that embed them in more than one
nation-state.”

origin who lives outside of the
Philippines. This term applies to
Filipinos who are abroad indefinitely as
citizens or as permanent residents of a
different country and to those filipino
