Описание: For 15 years, author George Ropes has followed the unfolding story of climate change for the timely and engaging website ClimateYou.org. Along the way, he has covered myriad individual research studies, innovations, catastrophes, and gradual signs of progress, from the resurgence of sustainable communities to lessons learned from the Australian wildfires. This compelling book presents a selection of these key writings to make clear the multi-faceted consequences that climate change is having onLooking at each of these five dimensions of the crisis, Waking Up to Climate Change is both sobering and hopeful, and above all, informative. It shares vital up-to-date solutions that are in the works and highlights the energies of many inspiring, forward-thinking people and organizations who are taking action around the world. This highly readable and scientifically illuminating book provides a vivid history of how climate change awareness has dawned over time, how physical forces and political delays can accelerate harmful changes, and how we all can play a crucial part in the mitigation and adaptation necessary for our beautiful planet's health and survival.

Название: Agricultural factor markets and india`s small farmers ISBN: 9354792332 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789354792335 Издательство: Sage Publications Рейтинг: Цена: 52800.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: Incompleteness and imperfections of the factor markets can inhibit farmers, particularly small farmers, from optimal utilization of resources, which limits the performance of the whole agriculture sector. In small farm agriculture, several important markets handling allocation of vital inputs and services have been emerging. Emerging markets such as the rental markets of farm machinery and equipment have received little attention in literature.
Agricultural Factor Markets and India’s Small Farmers argues that the market efficacy for such critical services requires close examination. The decline of public sector provided extension service in the post Green Revolution period and the entry of private providers makes this especially important. Further, thinness of markets for farm credit, insurance and marketing services deserves incisive analysis, as small farms are often constrained by insufficiency of access to such services.
The book analyses different factor markets to explore their interconnectedness and presents a comprehensive study on the factor market system.

Описание: This book describes and analyses necessities for a more resource-efficient world. It discusses solutions for a more sustainable use of natural resources, addressing decision-makers and experts from the fields of policy development, industry, academia, civil society, and the media. The book presents strategies, concrete ways and examples of achieving more sustainable resource use in practice.Following on from two previous titles published on Factor X by the Umweltbundesamt (German Environment Agency), entitled “Factor X: Policy, Strategies and Instruments for a Sustainable Resource Use” (2013) and “Factor X: Re-source – Designing the Recycling Society” (2014), this book further investigates how savings in natural resources and resource efficiency improvements could be achieved, focusing on good practice examples that cover different resource categories, pursue different efficiency strategies and come from different sectors, e.g. innovative products or services, technology, management approaches, systemic approaches, etc.The background against which this work is done has a highly comprehensive span, from the first Declaration of the Factor X Club in the nineties, to the European Commission’s Roadmap to a Resource Efficient Europe that was published in September 2011, through to the German Federal government’s German Resource Efficiency Programme (ProgRess I and II) in 2012 and 2016, the G7 Alliance for Resource Efficiency, and most recently the development and implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

Power systems have two components of apparent power: active and reactive power. Both components are necessary for functioning of electrical systems. The active power is the average power absorbed by the resistive load. The reactive power is the measure of energy exchange between the source and reactive power of load. Energy storage devices do not dissipate or supply power, but exchange power with the rest of system.
Active power is the one that is converted to other forms of energy in the load yet reactive power is only responsible for magnetizing purposes. Power factor is a ratio depicting how much of the power supplied is real. The reactive current contribute in the value of the overall magnitude of current in transmission lines causing unnecessarily high line currents and low power factor.
Since a low power factor means higher amount of apparent power need to be supplied by the utility company, thus the company must also use bigger generators, large transformers and thicker transmission/distribution lines. This requires a higher capital expenditure and operational cost which usually result in the cost being passed to the consumer.
In this research, we seek to identify the effects of a low power factor on Swaziland Electricity Company's power supply system and recommend possible solutions to the problem. The results are useful in determining how to optimally deliver power to a load at a power factor that is reasonably close to unity, thus reducing the utility's operational costs while increasing the quality of the service being supplied.
