Mott MacDonald is committed to integrating sustainability into our operational practices and culture. As a world leading consultancy business we are always seeking to improve our own performance and reduce the environmental impact of our business. Meanwhile, many of our staff are committed to living sustainably in their personal lives – as an employee-owned company Mott MacDonald shares their concerns. We feel an ethical obligation to reduce our emissions and resource use and have committed to reducing our per capita carbon footprint by a minimum of 5% year on year. We print our reports and client submissions using recycled, double-sided paper. Compared to printing single sided on A4 virgin paper, double sided printing on recycled paper saves the equivalent of two trees, over a ton of CO2 and a cubic metre of landfill space for every 100 reams. By choosing the greener path we have been able to achieve efficiencies benefiting both Mott MacDonald and our customers. We would like to share some of the principles of our own ‘Going Green’ initiative: • When possible we scan rather than print and consider what really needs to be on paper • We use electronic faxing when practicable • We work on e-forms • We use recycled paper when possible • Reducing paper in the office creates a better working environment for our staff and our clients We believe that you, as one of our esteemed clients, will share our concern to conserve precious resources for the benefit of our planet and its inhabitants.

Sampel sedimen permukaan diambil menggunakan eckman grab dari 20 titik daerah pengambilan sampel, kemudian dibawa ke laboratorium untuk menentukan ukuran butir dan komposisi sedimen. Secara umum, karakteristik sedimen didaerah penelitian didominasi oleh fraksi pasir halus hingga sangat halus dengan sedimen yang terpilah buruk hingga sangat buruk. analisis cluster membrdakan lingkungan pengendapan menjadi 4 kelompok.Kelompok I merupakan kelompok dengan kondisi oseanografi yang berarus lemah dan sangat labil, kelompok II memiliki mean size yang lebih kasar dan persentase fraksi lumpur yang lebih rendah, kelompok III ditandai oleh kondisi oseanografi yang berarus lebih kuat dan sedikit lebih stabil dan kelompok IV memiliki kondisi oseanografi dengan arus yang paling kuat dan paling stabil.

Nesting behavior of Bornean immature Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus wurmbii) in Nyaru Menteng Arboretum School, Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 2172-2179. This research aimed at analyzing the nesting behavior of Bornean Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus wurmbii) in Nyaru Menteng Arboretum, Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. The objects of observation were the immature orangutan nest, and the type of nest tree. The purposive sampling technique was used because not all immature Orangutan could make a nest. The Focal animal sampling method was used to determine the daily behavior and nets building activity. It involved observing and recording the behavior of five young Orangutans over a certain period of time and analyzing the nest made. The results of the study established that the daily activity of immature Orangutan on an average sequentially ranges from feeding 17.18%, moving 23.92%, resting 26.34%, and social behavior 32.57%.

(GNC) the United States Pharmacopeial Convention (USP), an independent, science based, standards setting organization and publishers of the United States Pharmacopeia-National Formulary (USP-NF), an official compendia of quality standards for dietary supplements sold in the U.S., issued the following statement: Statement by Gabriel Giancaspro, PhD – Vice President –Foods, Dietary Supplement and Herbal Medicines United States Pharmacopeial Convention (USP) “As a science-based standards-setting organization, the United States Pharmacopeial Convention (USP) has a keen interest in adopting emerging technologies to ensure the test methods and quality standards included in the United States Pharmacopeia-National Formulary (USP-NF) are current and reflect the state of the industry. DNA testing including DNA Barcoding, is just one example of a technology that has been recently added to the USP-NF. As of December 2014, DNA-based identification methods are included in the official USP chapter <563> Identification of Articles of Botanical Origin. However, this method is not yet referenced in a USP-NF monograph (quality standard) for a specific ingredient or product. That is because USP quality standards are specific for each ingredient, product and dosage form and the standards we develop include only those test methods that have been scientifically validated and shown to be fit for purpose.

  • Technical Guidelines for Reforestation at Ex-Coal-Mining Areas

    Technical Guidelines for Reforestation at Ex-Coal-Mining Areas

    Technical Guidelines for Reforestation at Ex-Coal-Mining Areas - Based on the outcomes of experimental reforestation activities at ex-coal-mining areas in South Kalimantan, Indonesia - Japan International Forestry Promotion and Cooperation Center (JIFPRO) March 2015 Technical Guidelines for Reforestation at Ex-Coal-Mining Areas - Based on the outcomes of experimental reforestation activities at ex-coal-mining areas in South Kalimantan, Indonesia - Eiichiro Nakama, Seiichi Ohta, Yasuo Ohsumi, Tokunori Mori and Satohiko Sasaki Japan International Forestry Promotion and Cooperation Center Fakhrur Razie, Hamdani Fauzi and Mahrus Aryadi Lambung Mangkurat University, Indonesia Japan International Forestry Promotion and Cooperation Center March 2015 Foreword During the past decades, deforestation and forest degradation continues especially in developing countries. According to the report of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nation (FAO), approximately 13 million hectors of global forests have been lost annually due to forest land conversion to other land uses, forest fires and natural disasters, while reforestation and natural regeneration account for an increase of approx. 7.8 million hectors of forest cover. This means the net loss of global forest is estimated at 5.2 million hectors. Adverse impacts of forest conversion to farmland can be minimized as far as the land is properly used and managed in a sustainable manner. However, in some cases, problem soils are exposed and abandoned as degraded land. Deforestation by mining is a big issue these years. Problem soils such as strong acid soils and/or too much heavy metal soils appear at the ex-mining areas. In some cases it is too difficult to reforestate.
