Environment and Its livelihood impact of Jawai Dam in western Rajasthan: Its Perspectives on The sustainable development Introduction:- "Dam and river vally projects have been known as modern piligrim-spots" This statment by Pt. J.L. Nehru befits also to Jawai dam in westurn Rajasthan. Jawai Dam is the largest water reserviour in western Rajasthan. It is constructed with a thick wall between two hills of subsidiary arawalian mountainaries and over Jawai river in sumerpur division in pali district

How successful can the management of fragile environments be, given the constant and increasing demand for their exploitation? A fragile environment is an area where the flora and fauna have adapted to a specific climate and evolved to occupy many different niches due to extremely high competition for resources. Furthermore due to the constant abiotic conditions, specialisation and symbiotic relationships have occurred to such a degree that even the slightest ecological or environmental disruption

The Leaflet Written by Friends of the Earth This is a leaflet written by Friends of the Earth where the audience targeted are British, the mahogany furniture lovers. The layout of the leaflet is eye-catching forces the readers to read on. This leaflet was produced in 1992 for the Friends of the Earth. The writer was an Indian from Brazil's Amazonian forests. It was produced to gain support from British public and to gain their help to stop deforesting in Brazil.

Once Upon a Time, a botanist named Tyrone, a scientist named Bill, and a biologist named Molly went to the amazon rainforest to search for a rare species of fern plant called “Ptisana salicina”. The group of scientists decided that they would fly down to the amazon rainforest and start looking for this rare fern species. They flew to Iquitos, Peru to start searching for the mysterious plant. When they arrived to Iquitos, they were greeted by many Peruvian people. Many of the villagers knew about

"An estimated 18 million acres (7.3 million hectares) of forest are lost each year." (LiveScience). The deforestation in the Amazonian rainforest of Brazil harms the environment and everything within it. Up to 30,000 species are expected to become extinct by the next centuries quarter due to deforestation. Oil is the number one leading cause of deforestation in the Amazon to sell to large corporate countries such as the United States of America. At 66 million tons of oil annually, 27 million hectares

Preservation of the Peruvian amazon forest is at stake since farmers and hunters are dismantling the habitat of the tree frogs and other species by using poor farming techniques. We must pay attention to the damage being caused and focus on certain Eco Tipping Points to help bring balance back to the forest. Therefore raising tree frogs in the Peruvian Amazon will help increase the health of the forest, increase income for farmers, and provide education about the benefits of tree frogs. The decision

the developing world”. Globalization encourages trade, consumerism, and the process to obtain the traded materials, therefore supporting the deforestation industry. Without outside influences, Brazil would not profit nearly as much from the Amazon Basin. More international beef buyers create greater profits for the sellers, and stimulate continued and escalated

Did you know that there are two Americas? North America and South America are two of the seven continents on Earth. We live in North America, while a Brazilian is from South America. These two continents have more things in common than their names, yet they are two vastly different continents. North America is a continent wholly within the Northern Hemisphere and almost wholly within the Western Hemisphere.South America is a continent located in the Western Hemisphere, mostly in the Southern Hemisphere

From this analysis we come to know the behavior of the area and we get information about tectonic control of the area so in this article we have calculated Mountain fronts synosity index, valley floor width to height ratio and Drainage Basin Asymmetry for Mula river Basin of the study area. 1. MOUNTAIN FRONT SINUOSITY: This index tell us that whether the fronts of area is active or not by tectonically. The index is defined as; Smf = Lmf / Ls Where Smf= mountain front sinuosity index Lmf=

Peru is a nation composed of heterogeneous ecosystems including the coastline of the Pacific Ocean, deserts, the Andes Mountains including the glacial regions, and the second largest portion of the Amazon Forest Basin (US AID, 2011). Its heterogeneity creates such a dire situation for Peru in terms of climate change and the effects it has on each individual system as well as the effects on wildlife and human occupants that live in these regions. In Peru, the climate changes that have been taking
