    The environmental impacts are straightforward, and thus a more obvious target for policies aiming to reduce the environmental impacts from resource use. The use of fossil fuels and global warming potential and potential acidifying effect. Use of specific metals, where there is a clear and linear relationship to environmental impacts from metal extraction and refining. A reduction in the use of these metals will lead to a direct reduction in the associated impacts. Area occupation, where it is the resource use itself that is of environmental concern. A reduction in area occupation will reduce the pressure on biodiversity. Construction materials, where the resource use drives the waste stream, albeit mostly with a significant delay…

    Hydropower has been in use in the U.S. since the late 1800’s and the origins of the technology reach back thousands of years and across the globe. Ancient cultures from Greece to Rome to China used water-powered mills to make their lives easier by harnessing the power of water. The Romans would use wheels placed in streams and rivers to power grain grinders, saw mills, and even water pumps. Today hydropower has taken on an enormously different purpose not even conceived by those who first considered it. The Hoover Dam in Nevada, named for President Herbert Hoover, who was personally involved in the construction discussions concerning the location, cost and safety of the dam(desertusa) It is a project of the Bureau of Reclamation, Department…

The basic social system is built on gross inequalities and the power to lobby and mould State policy, even judicial policy, is heavily in the hands of the proprietariat. Being social realists and meliorists we have to work with the materials that we have and try to read the constitutional provisions in such a manner that the human essence of distributive justice is won by dynamic interpretation and socialist understanding. The Indian Constitution visualizes an affirmative State action for bringing about a new social order based on justice, social, economic and political (Art. 38). The Directive Principles of State Policy contain the directions of change towards such a new social order.

    The major area of strength in the management of the project is that the project was covered with four phases: inception, development, implementation, and closeout (Anbari, n.d.). In the inception phase, there was already a vision of what the Guri dam will be like. Its purpose is also identified such that it will serve as a reservoir which could store a large amount of water. It was also in this phase that the cost of the project was estimated. Furthermore, this project has seen the need of help from the international companies because of a lack of national knowledge in dam construction. This project also sought for quality. According to Anbari (n.d.), quality and sustainable development in Edelca’s management…
