  • How Individual Efforts Lead to Community Participation
    Environment Improvement: How Individual Efforts Lead to Community Participation Parul Goyal Wasan Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies, India E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The paper presents three case studies aimed at examining the factors relating to individual efforts within real life context in order to improve the sustainability of their environment, with the help of multiple case study methodology. These case studies investigate an ecological transformation within real-life context through the efforts of certain individuals. These individuals act as social-environmental initiators and conceive, believe and act upon an opportunity that others in the community either fail to see, believe in; or lack courage to pursue Their actions and behavior were contrary to what the community behavior exhibited. This aspect is supported by the SES model that pointed out that the initiator of the activity generally takes the first step long before the community, and the Government . The initiator also acts as a) role model for the community, b) encourages community participation, and c) acts as go between the community and the providers viz. Government, large NGOs and corporations. These case studies act as exemplars and (and are not exhaustive ) identified the individual efforts for environment and social development. This is an original research which depends upon secondary sources present in both digital and traditional media. Keywords: individual effort, community participation , behavior change, interpersonal communication 1. Introduction Although ecology and human development have a reciprocal influence on each other, its only during the past few decades that sensitivity for the ecological causes has grown exponentially, resulting in a growing effort for socio-ecology integration.

  • Padma Shri Jadav Payeng (Forest Man of India) Padma
    Padma Shri Jadav Payeng (Forest Man of India) Padma Shri Jadav Molai Payeng born in 1963 is a Mishing tribe environmental activist. He is a forestry worker at Plant for Planet and Peace (PPP), from Jorhat, India. He has done a great service to mankind by working towards saving the environment. Moved over by the sight of more than hundred snakes dying one after the other due to severe heat on the deserted sandbar, he singlehandedly decided to plant life on eroded island. In April 1979 he started his task by sowing the seeds and shoots offered by villagers. Over the course of several decades, he planted and tended trees on a sandbar of the river Brahmaputra and turned it into a forest reserve. It now boast of thousands of trees including bamboos, many endangered animals, including one-horned rhinos, Royal Bengal tigers, vultures and migratory birds. A herd of around hundred elephants reqularly visits and stays in forest for six months every year. His thirty-six years of hardship and dedication has helped him create a forest. The forest, called Molai forest after Jadav Molai Payeng, is located near Kokilamukh of Jorhat in Assam. It encompasses an area of about 1,360 acres per 550 hectares. In 2015, he was honored with Padma Shri, the fourth highest civilian award in India for his contribution towards society. In October 2013, he was honored at Indian Institute of Forest Management during their annual event Coalescence. Film maker Aarti Shrivastava acknowledged the life and works of Jadav Payeng into a film documentary called “Foresting life” in 2013.

  • Jadav Payeng
    EDITORIAL Dear Members, Fellow Professionals and Friends, SEASONS GREETINGS TO ONE AND ALL! The month of June is marked by observance of “World Environment Day” on the 5th by all people of the World to remind ourselves of the Dangers if we do not ensure a Safe and Healthy Environment. Engineers from all over India and from all over the World observe this day as they certainly have a greater responsibility than all the other Professionals who all have lot of responsibility in addressing and the uses of Resources, Technology and Engineering. The important Environmental concerns revolve around a) Sustainable Consumption and avoiding over exploitation of Natural Resources, b) Pollution of Air and Water, c) Climate Change and Global Warming, and d) Connecting with Nature more and more as a Solution. Sustainable consumption has to be addressed primarily to Water and Energy. Be it Agriculture or Domestic or Industrial and other uses, we are able to see abnormal quantities of water being used clubbed with lot of wastages, which has to be fully addressed by Engineering and Technology in minimizing the usages as well as reuses by Treatment and Recycling and so on. Reducing the use of Water in Agriculture can be addressed by Technologies like Sprinklers, Drip and Micro Irrigation and so on. Waste Water Treatments and reuses are all feasible with Technologies and it should be made compulsory, be it communities or industries or Municipalities or any other establishments or Institutions. It is certainly the duty of the Engineering fraternity to work on it and towards it. Sustainable Energy Consumption is a Great Challenge which has to be addressed by reducing consumption through Energy Efficiency and by more and more uses of Renewable Energy Sources in place of fossils.

  • PES and Its Role in Indian Forestry
    Rahul Patil Ramanand Bhakar Rajnish Kumar Soorya Narayan S Rajkumar M Group-5 S Sundar Rajthilak S Sadik Mujawar Rakesh Sepat Sandeep Berwal There is a small Island nation called Kiribati whose existence is under the threat of rising sea level. Tell me what they tried to do? To maintain their existence. They did something unique! What can be a solution to this? Through PES, We can implement C- Sequestration as a financially viable means to aid climate change mitigation through forestry. Carbon sequestration refers to a long-term storage of carbon dioxide or other forms of carbon to either mitigate or defer global warming and to avoid dangerous climate change. It has been proposed as a way to slow the atmospheric and marine accumulation of greenhouse gases, which are released by burning fossil fuels. As a result of photosynthesis carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere and stored in biomass. This is a part of the carbon cycle known as carbon sequestration. The carbon that is taken from the air is incorporated into sugars (such as glucose), that become the building blocks for production of wood. Trees and wood are carbon sinks, accumulating carbon as they grow and acting as stable carbon stores upon maturity. This carbon storage applies even when trees are converted to Timber. Considerable carbon is stored in wood put into long-term use such as in houses, furniture, and books. When trees die or succumb to fire, their stored carbon is released back into the cycle through decay and combustion. Carbon sequestration by forests is recognized as one way of mitigating industrial emissions of CO2.

  • What Kind of Development We Want to Afford Sustainable Living?
    Journal of Environmental Science and Engineering A 7 (2018) 34-48 doi:10.17265/2162-5298/2018.01.005 D DAVID PUBLISHING What Kind of Development We Want to Afford Sustainable Living? Kamaljit Kaur Sangha Darwin Centre for Bushfire Research, Research Institute for the Environment and Livelihoods, Charles Darwin University, Darwin 0810, Australia Abstract: The historical evidence is used to argue that the application of knowledge and modernization of the current economic and conservation approaches for directly relating to human dependence on nature are critical for advancing human well-being. Over the last ~50 years, despite our sound understanding of various ecological impacts at local, regional and global scales, we have largely failed to prevent decline in the health of natural systems worldwide. Our current approaches continue to promote utilitarian economy, focusing on materials. This paper advocates a shift from the current paradigms of economics and resource use, by proposing an ethical approach both to nature and economics, towards holistic development. The approach is based on peoples’ well-being. It outlines how by integrating ethics, economy and nature, and finding simple solutions within the reach of public, sustainable development can become achievable much more efficiently and quickly than following our current lengthy and complex processes. Key words: Nature, natural systems, ecosystem services, sustainable development, economics, human well-being. 1. Introduction take them for granted in their daily lives. More than 50% of the world’s population, living in urban and This paper offers a broad-scale integrated analysis semi-urban centres, is largely disconnected from of economy, society and nature’s resources to nature’s raw resources that support major material emphasize the need for greater levels of realization needs [2].
