The ecological footprint Ecological footprint analysis is a measure of human demand on the Earth's ecosystems and natural resources. It compares human consumption of natural resources with planet Earth's ecological capacity to regenerate them. It is an estimate of the amount of biologically productive land and sea area needed to regenerate (if possible) the resources a human population consumes and to absorb and render harmless the corresponding waste, given prevailing technology and current understanding.

Ecological Architecture- Building in Bangalore Ecological architecture responds to 2 key crises confronting us globally. The crisis of poverty and the lack of access to work,education,health and all allied services is the first one. The second is the environmental crisis with the consumption of natural resources beyond sustainable limits and the generation of pollution streams beyond the carrying capacity of the globe itself. Through design and through the architecture of space work is generated to produce jobs of a skill which is nurturing thus addressing the first concern. The second concern is addressed through building to enhance bio-diversity , using local materials such as earth, harvesting rain, using solar energy,using ecosan,recycling grey water, growing food on the roof and being as creative as possible in minimizing the ecological footprint of the house.

ECOLOGICAL INDUCTION HEATER WATER This is the sad reality of our water heater In fact why does it happen here? My name is Joel kaleu In a few minutes: The hot water is the most used in a household, unfortunately, as can be seen on the pictures it is impossible to drink a hot water outlet of the water heater. And that was not enough, we are asked to go to more than 60o C toue to avoid contamination, while the right temperature for a hot water is 40o C. it takes to 20o C 200 watts of electricity. Let me present the new water heater induction most economical and simple 1) The cage is completely glass is a synthesis. 2) Water is heated in proportion, and the rest is preheated by the natural system, it has a mind a remarkable reduction of energy. 3) The insulation is completely natural products adding any chemical or industrial is possible. 4) The hull is also recycled propylene. 5) The heaters have been replaced by a heating system that heats the induction three times faster than conventional electrical resistance. It will save time and energy necessary for all operations. 6) Life is quite significant because that is not in the presence of ferrous material, or oxidizable, it should easily account for just two decades. In case of failure can not change that inducer. 7) In case of fire, and provide protection more than normal because of its expansion to fire. 8) Contrary, the heater which is on the market today, the insulation is not a carcinogen. 9) According to reliable estimates, we found a 20% reduction of energy, because of a temperature (39o c) uniform thermostats controlled by the internal probe, adjustable became 20o C to 80oC. It will also close its water heater in case of absence at home. one can safely drink directly from the heater without fear of developing type of Legionella bacteria can cause Legionnaire's disease by contaminated water. 10) For a province like Quebec, which has about 2 000 000 water heaters on save approximately 282.8385 tonnes of CO2 per year in Quebec.

Could Drinking Water Scarcity Lead to Ecological Crisis? Complete video at: http://fora.tv/2008/02/18/Maude_Barlow_Global_Water_Crisis Author and activist Maude Barlow warns of a coming global ecological crisis resulting from a scarcity of clean drinking water. ----- Maude Barlow talks about Blue Covenant: The Global Water Crisis and the Coming Battle for the Right to Water. In their international bestseller Blue Gold, Maude Barlow and co-author Tony Clarke exposed how a handful of corporations are gaining ownership and control of the earth's dwindling water supply, depriving millions of people around the world of access to this most basic of resources and accelerating the onset of a global water crisis. Blue Covenant, the sequel to Blue Gold, describes a powerful response to this trend: the emergence of an international, grassroots-led movement to have water declared a basic human right, something that can't be bought or sold for profit - Book Passage Maude Barlow is the National Chairperson of The Council of Canadians, Canada's largest public advocacy organization, and the co-founder of the Blue Planet Project, working internationally for the right to water. She serves on the boards of the International Forum on Globalization and Food and Water Watch, as well as being a Councillor with the Hamburg-based World Future Council. Maude is the recipient of six honorary doctorates, the 2005/2006 Lannan Cultural Freedom Fellowship Award, and the 2005 Right Livelihood Award (known as the "Alternative Nobel") for her global water justice work. She is also the best-selling author or co-author of sixteen books, including Blue Gold: The Fight to Stop Corporate Theft of the World's Water and the recently released Blue Covenant: The Global Water Crisis and the Coming Battle for the Right to Water.

OSHO TEERTH, Ecological Park Project OSHO TEERTH, created in 1994 and maintained by OSHO International Foundation is located in Pune City, India. It is a beautiful garden park that has been created out of a publicly owned former wasteland surrounding a sewage-ridden stream, called a nalla. Where once existed a dirty, foul-smelling area shunned by plants, birds and human alike, there now is a quiet expanse filled with clear flowing water, lush green trees and a rainbow of flora and fauna. It has become a place where nature has re-established a harmonious beauty and where people can find relaxation and a taste of quiet meditation. OSHO Teerth is not only a beautiful park. It is also an ecological statement made by a group of people who are seeking to reverse the degradation of nature in a model project which will help re-establish a balance between a clean, healthy environment and the needs of a modern city. The project addresses issues related to water regeneration and use, irrigation, health and social education, land use, reforestation and beautification. This one small seed contains the potential to flower into many community-based projects of its kind. It can contribute immeasurably to the livability of humanity's habitat.

John Baez - Ecological Damage from Global Warming Complete video at: http://fora.tv/fora/showthread.php?t=584 Celebrated mathematical physicist John Baez looks at global warming from an historical perspective, and details the widespread ecological damage that may result from rapid climate change. ----- John Baez - "Zooming Out in Time" The graphs we see these days, John Baez began, all look vertical--- carbon burning shooting up, CO2 in the air shooting up, global temperature shooting up, and population still shooting up. How can we understand what really going on? "It's like trying to understand geology while you're hanging by your fingernails on a cliff, scared to death. You think all geology is vertical." So, zoom out for some perspective. An Earth temperature graph for the last 18,000 years shows that we've built a false sense of security from 10,000 years of unusually stable climate. Even so, a "little dent" in the graph of a drop of only 1 degree Celsius put Europe in a what's called "the little ice age" from 1555 to 1850. It ended just when industrial activity took off, which raises the question whether it was us that ended it. Zoom out further still to the last 65 million years. The temperature graph show several major features. One is the rapid (every 100,000 years) wide swings of major ice ages. When they began, 1.35 million years ago, is when humans mastered fire. But almost all of the period was much warmer than now, with ferns growing in Antarctica. "Now it's cold. What's wrong with a little warming?" Baez asked. The problem is that the current warming is happening too fast. Studies of 1,500 species in Europe show that their ranges are moving north at 6 kilometers a decade, but the climate zones are moving north at 40 kilometers a decade, faster than they can keep up. The global temperature is now the hottest it's been in 120,000 years. One degree Celsius more and it will be the hottest since 1.35 million years ago, before the ice ages. Baez suggested that the Anthropocene may be characterized mainly by species such as cockroaches and raccoons who accommodate well to humans. Coyotes are now turning up in Manhattan and Los Angeles. There are expectations that we could lose one-third of all species by mid-century, from climate change and other human causes. Okay, to think about major extinctions, zoom out again. Over the last 550 million years there have been over a dozen mass extinctions, the worst being the Permian-Triassic extinction 250 million years ago, when over half of all life disappeared. The cause is still uncertain, but one candidate is the methane clathrates ("methane ice") on the ocean floor. Since methane is a far worse greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, massive "burps" of the gas could have led to sudden drastic global heating and thus the huge die-off of species. Naturally the methane clathrates are being studied as an industrial fuel for when the oil runs out in this century, "which could make our effect on global warming 10,000 times worse," Baez noted. "Zooming out in time is how I calm myself down after reading the newspapers," Baez concluded. "A mass extinction is a sad thing, but life does bounce back, and it gets more interesting each time. We probably won't kill off all life on Earth. But even if we do, there are a hundred billion stars in our galaxy, and ten billion galaxies in the observable universe." --Stewart Brand, The Long Now Foundation Tags: ecology ice age history co2 emissions environment greenhouse environmental gases graphs charts climate fora tv fora.tv |

Veljko Milkovic - Self-Heating Ecological House - Google Project 10^100 Idea Google Project 10^100 Idea - Self-heating eco-house concept by Veljko Milkovic - short version with subtitles: English, German, French, Hungarian, Slovenian, Serbian... Full version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kfio6mnZVX8 Self-heating eco-house with the reflecting surfaces - the house protected from outside noise with stable temperature, a lot of light and cheaper to build. Instead of a traditional roof, ecological house has a layer of soil, protecting the house from low winter and high summer temperatures. In addition, walls are protected from erosion. Ecological house does not require deep foundation, large area for heating material, heating installations etc. Savings in heating is based on reflecting surfaces i.e. surfaces that reflect direct and diffuse radiation of the Sun (around 80%). These are glossy coats (of lacquer and paint), aluminum foils and metal sheets on hard surface. The upper reflecting surface is built into the eaves of the object and is fixed. The lower one is positioned under the window and can serve as a shutter. Eco house in Novi Sad (Serbia), for example, had savings in lightning of 30% and savings in building material 40%. It cuts heating cost to minimum and protects tenants health from artificial acclimatization and decreases fire risk. Any house tenant (owner or renter) would have benefit from low heating cost, bright premises and noise free environment. In the summer tenant would enjoy cool area without acclimatization usage. Building these eco-houses in large city areas would result in savings in building material (mostly wood), savings in heating energy (gas, electricity, wood, coal), clean air and increase of green areas in the city. The presented eco-house is located in Novi Sad (Serbia) owned by Mr. Aleksandar Nikolić who lives in that house with his family more than 12 years and who speaks, in this video, about his positive experience of living in such house stating the advantages of building that eco-house with the reflecting surfaces... Veljko Milković http://www.veljkomilkovic.com is the ideological creator (author) of this self-heating eco-house concept with the reflecting surfaces and the owner of this eco-house in Novi Sad (Serbia), Aleksandar Nikolić did a construction project for presented eco-house. Veljko Milković still develops and improves this principle of building the self-heating eco-houses. More info: http://www.veljkomilkovic.com/EkoKuca...

Ecological Solutions for the 21st Century Hear about novel and cutting-edge research that USC marine scientists are conducting to solve environmental problems at low cost or even at a profit, and how these methods can be adopted by the private sector. Such ideas include using microbes to treat sewage and generate electricity simultaneously, or having robots run offshore fish farms a hundred miles away from sensitive coastal waters. Plumbing the depths of this issue is Anthony Michaels, professor of biological sciences in the USC College of Letters, Arts & Sciences and director of the USC Wrigley Institute for Environmental Studies.

Ecological news of the Ukraine - 2. 21.12.2007 Іn Kiev fight for the retention of landscape lane lasts. On 15 December, in response to the destruction of trees by housebuilders, took place immense show, made by the inhabitants of the most near to the lane houses and by association "Save old Kiev". In the action, which bore the name "insurgent day", participated of approximately 200 Kievians. Literally in 10 minutes, dressed in the suits behave like a beast and robbers participants, they completely destroyed the fence around future building. On the spot of the felled trees planted new. When the arrived police, action already ended in the place. Nevertheless this, undoubtedly important for the Kiev resistance movement event, it shows that Kievians are capable of defending their city not only at the meetings and in the letters of the protest, to which the city authority long ago is indifferent. In Kharkov, in the central park of Taras Shevchenko, lasts the building of delfinarium. Section for its construction isolated with city authority directly in the park zone. They even now laid 62 trees, part from which they had forbidden status and they were the reminders of nature.There is a plan to deliver dolphins from the Black sea. But all forms of the dolphins, which there are in the fauna of the Ukraine those carried to the Red Book, and their catch it is forbidden. In this case, on the black market the dolphins stand extremely. The businessmen catch dolphins as if for the rehabilitation. In this case, or they patients, no one examination conduct also after to the so-called rehabilitation of animals simply they sell into particular. See details on site www.savedolphn.nm.ru On 17 December in the accommodation of the administration of the protection of natural environment in Kyiv was passed roundtable from the consideration of the program of the protection of environment in Kyiv for 2008- 2011. Sufficiently many public ecological and nature-conservation organizations were invited to the round table. The total budget of program is 10 milliard gryvnas. Let us look at the most interesting moments. The start in it under the guise of the nature-conservation measures of several non target articles became the most negative moment of program. Among them the building of rubbish-incinerating plant, the purchase of new public transport and the creation of parks due to the suburban forests in order to formally compensate the built-on in the center cities parks. There are no measures for the steadiness of ecological situation in the territory of plant "Radical". Nevertheless the developers of program provide for measures for the protection of the fauna of Kiev and will of a number of the natural objects of city, including Trukhanov island. Furthermore, program provides for measures for the utilization of the snow without the pollution of the Dnipro assembled from the streets. On 21 December, on Friday, already for a second time took place the picketing of the secretariat of the President of the Ukraine by the inhabitants of Kyiv, with the requirement of the adoption of urgent measures for the rescuing of our city from the barbarous building. Action assembled non-partisan Kievians, decisively disposed against the construction policy of city authority. In conclusion of release we want again to return to the problem of new-year fir trees. But if you nevertheless solved, that in your house there will be the "living" fir tree, we issue a call you not to buy tree, illegally destroyed by poachers. Now we will describe to you how to distinguish the lawfully felled fir tree of that illegally felled. Many fir trees and pine trees actually felled are lawful. This can be realized during the sanitary rooms, or on the special plantations. With legal felled, to the stump and on it over imbibed on fir tree itself it relates tempering mark. It looks like small star or another mark with the number in the center. Fir tree without any mark is illegal. All the more, if trees are felled by axe and they are not sawn down - this is accurately illegal. Thus, selecting fir tree, you will look, is there to its mark. Besides other, "fir tree" on the capital fir tree markets can be brought from the Chernobyl' zone of radioactive pollution. Indeed precisely there practically there is none of protection, witnesses, foresters and still someone, who could interfere with carrying out an illegal room. But generally, it is better to nevertheless turn to the ecologically friendly alternatives to living new-year fir tree. This can be fir tree in the pot, bouquet from the coniferous branches or the artificial fir tree, which will serve to you a long time. Nevertheless selection after you.
