I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to the DC Kupw @SagarDoifode2 @nabibhat1978 for their prompt response & swift action in addressing the issue of waste dumping on the road side near my house. Their commitment to ensuring a cleaner & healthier env is truly commendable. Image
… I wrote a detailed complaint, highlighting the gravity of the situation. I emphasized the health risks caused by the presence of flies, mosquitoes, & the foul smell emanating from the waste. App attached! @shahfaesal @FaizanPeer_ @dckupwara @KupwaraTimes @swachhbharat Image
…I sent the app via WhatsApp around 11 in the morning today. At around 12:30 i received a call informing me that a dedicated team had been dispatched to assess the situation & take immediate action. Image

Playing around with applying our method from doi.org/10.1177/239980… for a new project; we can use it to map, e.g., (2016) walking commutes by electoral division in #Dublin using flowmapper.org
We can also combine this with our cost-distance method (self-promotion! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…) to find the cost of traveling a given distance (based on opportunity cost of travel time, buying walking shoes, etc.) to see where walking infrastructure/service is relatively poor
From this it looks like more suburban/outlying areas (that likely have more disconnected street patterns) are relatively more costly to walk

India is a land of villages, and a large part of its population still lives in the remote parts of the country.
It's a matter of immense pride that some of these villages have emerged as centres of experimentation on sustainable living over the past few years.
Swipe to have a look at the list of five such villages in India!

@aineltoner “I was foolish”, @aineltoner says. “Living a plant-based lifestyle requires planning and preparation unless you want to eat the same thing as I did.”

#Vegan #sustainable
Variety is key: adequate preparation allows you to plan a range of meals and dishes that you’ll actually enjoy and look forward to.

This week, for #SustainabilitywithETCH, we are diving into the world and thoughts of Waste Management.

A thread: #Facts focusing India.
According to the Swachhata Sandesh Newsletter by the @MoHUA_India , as of January 2020, 147,613 metric tonnes (MT) of solid waste is generated per day, from 84,475 wards
Urban India generates nearly 0.15 million tonnes of municipal solid waste (MSW) per day of which, only 68 percent is collected for disposal. An explosion in the generation of MSW in Indian cities due to a burgeoning population and even faster urbanization

Wanted to share my top 20 pieces of content from 2019. Hope they inspire you as they did me 👇
1/ Towards a New System of Community Wealth by @DrexelLab as a paper breaking down the structural inefficiencies that exist in modern America for creating sustainably productive communities drexel.edu/nowak-lab/publ…
@DrexelLab 2/ Wellbeing should replace growth as 'main aim of UK spending' from @RJPartington. This will become more relevant as "growth" yields consequences too great to ignore in the 21st century. theguardian.com/politics/2019/…

Our consumption model is hurting our environment, our physical and mental health. We’re over-using natural resources, exposing children to toxic chemicals in our everyday products, and creating too much waste. This is unsustainable. Thread👇
#sustainability
Humanity lives at credit and consumes resources equal to that of 1.7 planets a year, vs 1.4 a decade ago and 0.8 in 1963. If population and consumption trends continue, this figure will rise to 2 planets by 2030.

The problem is about quantity, quality, and behaviors. We produce too much useless and disposable stuff, using enormous resources, cheap materials and labor, that we often barely use and quickly throw away.
