Abstract

Apparently the multiple dimensions of environmental management concerns for countries with multi-tiered systems of governance were far less understood approximately twenty five years ago. It was thereby important for the government to impose regulations that have the ability to assess and bypass thornier intergovernmental issues with respect to its ability to protect sensitive environments and introduce strategies for growth and expansion.
In this context the term “disaster resistant community” holds good as opposed to “Disaster Resilient Community” and there are very specific issues why Webstar defines ‘Resilience’ as the ability to recover from or adjust easily from a calamity ...

Introduction

The effects of accumulated carbon in the atmosphere are now evident in almost every part of the world. As a result, there is need for a collective approach towards implementing strategies that will help reduce such accumulated carbon. Since it is virtually impossible to reduce the already available carbon in the atmosphere, the best approach in this case is thus concentrating on limiting emission from the most common sources (Armaroli, & Balzani, 2011). This proposal thus presents installation of solar panels to harness solar energy with an aim of making the same the most preferred source of energy.
