Chapter 1 1.1 Rate of birth : 19 per 1000 population per year
Rate of death: 9.3 per 1000 population per year
Rate of immigration: 2.7 per 1000 population per year
Rate of emigration: 11.5 per 1000 population per year
Overall population change rate:
R = [Rb -Rd] + [Ri – Re]
= [0.019 – 0.0093] + [0.0027 – 0.0115] = 0.0009
Or 0.9 per 1000 population per year.

1.2 1990 population = 3.72 million
Rate of population change from 1990 to 2005 = 0.9 per 1000 population per year
Population in 2020 = P0 e Rt =3 720 000 x e 0.9/1000 x 30 = 3,821,808.

1.3 Emissions per equivalent US dollar of GDP for each country in 2007:

Country | Population | GDP | Co2 emissions | GDP/capita | E CO2/GDP | Brazil | 188 | 621 | 106 | 3303.1915 | 170.6924316 | China | 1314 | 2512 | 1665 | 1911.7199 | 662.8184713 | India | 1095 | 796 | 338 | 726.94064 | 424.6231156 | Nigeria | 132 | 83 | 114 | 628.78788 | 1373.493976 | United States | 298 | 1322 | 1709 | 4436.2416 | 1292.738275 |

1.4
To be able to calculate the equivalent CO2 , the rate population of change is calculated:
P= P0 e Rt
R= (1/t) ln (P/P0)
R = 0.0126341 CO2 for 2010 calculation = eCO2= Population x GNP(%/yr)/person x CO2 /GNP(%/yr)

| Population | GNP growth(%/yr) | decrease in eCO2/GNP (%/yr) | eCO2 | | 2000 | 2010 | 2025 | 1990-2000 | 2000-2025 | | 2007 | 2010 | 2025 | Brazil | 175 | 199 | 240 | 3.6 | 2.8 | 0.5 | 170.6924 | 278.6 | 336 | China | 1290 | 1489 | 1600 | 5.5 | 4 | 1 | 662.8185 | 5956 | 6400 | India | 990 | 1262 | 1425 | 4.7 | 3.7 | 0.2 | 424.6231 | 933.88 | 1054.5 | Nigeria | 148 | 210 | 250 | 3.2 | 2.4 | 0.1 | 1373.494 | 50.4 | 60 | United States | 270 | 294 | 307 | 2.4 | 1.7 | 0.7 | 1292.738 | 349.86 | 365.33 |
2.1 I agree that 25 - 50 years as the best choice for a sustainability planning timescale. As those timescales are roughly to be two humans generations. So the plan can still be

    The world population is expected to grow from 6.1 billion in 2000 to 8.9 billion in 2050, increasing therefore by 47 per cent. The changing distribution, rate and nature of the world’s population consider a number of factors which include urbanisation, population of the developing and developed countries. Also how fast or slow the population increases over a specific period of time, and where the distribution is and why.…

    In the year 1990, there were approximately 60.70 million people living in the Philippines. Population increased from 1990 to 2000 by approximately 15.81 million people. In 2012, the Philippines total reaches 103.78 million compared to the 2000 population of 81.16 million. The size of the human population is changing at an extremely high rate in the last years which makes the state the 12th most overpopulated country in the whole world. According to U.S. Agency for International Development (2000), it is foreseen that in the year 2030, the population growth will be unstoppable and will be doubled.…

    -Bioremediation is the use of micro-organism metabolism to remove pollutants. Technologies can be generally classified as in situ or ex situ. In situ bioremediation involves treating the contaminated material at the site, while ex situ involves the removal of the contaminated material to be treated elsewhere. Bioremediation can occur on its own (natural attenuation or intrinsic bioremediation) or can be spurred on via the addition of fertilizers to increase the bioavailability within the medium (biostimulation). Recent advancements have also proven successful via the addition of matched microbe strains to the medium to enhance the resident microbe population's ability to break down contaminants. Microorganisms used to perform the function of bioremediation are known as bioremediators. Not all contaminants, however, are easily treated by bioremediation using microorganisms. For example, heavy metals such as cadmium and lead are not readily absorbed or captured by microorganisms. The assimilation of metals such as mercury into the food chain may worsen matters. Phytoremediation is useful in these circumstances because natural plants or transgenic plants are able to bioaccumulate these toxins in their above-ground parts, which are then harvested for removal. The heavy metals in the harvested biomass may be further concentrated by incineration or even recycled for industrial use.The elimination of a wide range of pollutants and wastes from the environment requires increasing our understanding of the relative importance of different pathways and regulatory networks tocarbon flux in particular environments and for particular compounds, and they will certainly accelerate the development of bioremediation technologies and biotransformation processes.…

    Population increase is a growing concern. The United States Census Bureau processes information concerning the population. In the 2010 census report, the United States experienced a 9.7% increase in population. In the 2000 census report, the United States population was 281.4 million people. The 9.7% increase brought the population up to 308.7 million people in 2010 (United States Census Bureau, 2011). Global fertility is an issue that affects the population growth. According to Powell (2012) if the population rate were to continue at the present pace, the world would have an approximate increase of 20 billion people. The smallest increase or decrease can affect the population drastically.…

    Sustainable development and engineering ethics as well as social aspects of engineering are emerging issues related to power electronics. Several important topics like environmentally sustainable products and electromagnetic compatibility fit into this description. Therefore, these issues have recently become part of the advanced course on power electronics at Lund University. The authors’ intention with the present overview paper is to share the ingredients and results so far and to review ongoing Nordic activities that could form a basis for others to expand from traditional power electronics. It is our firm opinion that issues like LCA, EPR, EMC, EMI have to be addressed and highlighted in the education of power electronic engineers.…

    The people civilization develops rapidly in XXI century, and the results of this progress effect on environment in a negative way and it is gaining more turn. However, in order to deal with problem of environment pollution, green engineering was made. These kinds of engineers try to reduce the emission of their product, develop devices that consume less electricity, in other words, their work is development of devices, which can be suitable for people’s progress and for environment conservation. The most hazardous for environment are emission from vehicles and factories, waste disposal and deforestation, which consequences is air and water pollution, temperature changing, extinction of animals. In order to deal with these problems, several methods and technologies were invented. This journal is going to analyze the two methods of green engineers, which are possible solutions for reducing the negative impact on nature.…
