  • I am really excited to learn about York UK history.

  • I really can't wait to get involved in real research or projects on this.

  • The world does not really wait, and scientific innovations are realised on series of steps already taken.

    An overt ground means everybody is carried along, but any covert practice will leave some people behind.
    This new arm of engineering could be weaponised if secrecy is allowed to creep in.
    As it is at the moment, the process and purpose of such...

  • Rational minds will never pose as irrational minds. Lack of education could make irrational minds to pretend being of rational minded. Do not rule out selfish minded, and social obligations.

  • @MeganConnolly No, there is this criminal strategy that is rampant in my country in Nigeria and it is called 'One Chance.' A gang out to get their victims will fill a bus and the bus attendant will be shouting 'One Chance remaining.' It also means one sit remaining for the bus to get going quickly than delaying to get more passengers. If you are in a hurry,...

  • Sound off, is really motivating, will do that with: energy gifting tokens, the rich practicing energy fasting while forgoing that warmth for the price of energy gift token cards to those undergoing fuel poverty. That could be in the package of something like Climate Change Adaptation Carnival which I talked about as reason for joining statement. JRF are we...

  • I have used the 2050 calculator type that was withdrawn in June 2022, way back in 2017. And Mackay Calculator is good for me. It is professional but I am afraid some people might get a turn off using it. I recommend the use of laptop than mobile phones to access it.

    I might light to post again what I wrote in about 2 steps before this, The Importance of...

  • Clifford C. Nwogu made a comment

    Since the time of the research, a lot has happened.

    I am sure, it must have made some contributions leading to our being on the same page at the moment; we are at an advanced stage in our quest to reduce emissions, to avoid an impending Climate Change lead disasters.

    At the moment, we are exploring the pathways that are in compliance with sustainability...

  • The oil equivalent of the energy use information above shows the domestic sector and Transport sector, as where we must work hard on reducing.

    The today's mind set: Sustainability about development is really working and am sure that there is a deluge of solutions we have today on low carbon energy use innovations; this will soon start to reach the...

  • Postings by Linda Jeal and the one by Lee Scott are making a bullseye for me.

    In addition, I really want to see what effect does COVID19 confinement had on the carbon emission model. One thing good about it can't be the amount of carbon emission that it had prevented.

    To be fair to all concerned, we must compensate the fears that tend to bring in...

  • What is important is education and or communication. Those 17 goals assimilation will make humans development better and best of all species.

  • Higher biodiversity areas protection was to me equally good choice.

    But then, the phrase 'Sustainably managed' opened up the gate.

    With that, we could control the actions of invasive species, and local people should equally be taken care of.

  • Looking at the ethical consumer site was a new world. Things are really happening. I love humans honestly.

  • With projects like IUCN, the humans can never be the invasive species. Is good that people are showing concerns and are actually doing something and we should continue to do something.

    Once I read about the Alaskan frog that gets frozen to death during the winter, only to start living during the warmer seasons. Whoever allows it to go into extinction, is...

  • I really have a very big need of charging my phone.

  • Solar stove should be given much thought not minding that it looks like a school lab experiment. Any little contribution counts to reduce emissions. This can be adopted during season of copious sunshine.

  • @MarkPickin Just a little step is something. By the way if researches are showing happiness factored into human development index is rational; there is no point contesting it.
    Also, If one considers life expectancy and continues in aggrandisement, the psychiatrist should be called to give proper guide on how to enjoy life.
    To work in order to keep active or...

  • Making use of solar alternative might be a good solution. They can change their cooking time table to when the solar energy is available.

  • Reusing is good for the equation and I hope that many more people adopt it because any little help counts.

    Packaging becoming a big challenge to solving our most crucial problem is unbelievable.

    Am not giving up, we will surely get to the bottom of it. Things to package can be liquid or non liquid and the material to be used should not be heavy. The...

  • Tourism will be affected. High polluter nations, are delaying our collective efforts to meet our targets for guaranteed sustainable development.

  • Subsidies!

  • What can one do to reduce emissions.
    Climate Action: Standby 3,2,1, action!
    Among the most influential things we can do include my humble suggestion of planning and carrying out a 'climate change adaptation carnival.'
    This is why I'd wished that I be in York earlier for My MSc study in Environmental Sustainability Education and Communication. I chose...

  • This video really touched on greedy consumption attitude and overwhelming desire to join the Jones attitude, these and the wellness working option are like hiting the nail on it's head. This is the magic wand pathway or development that I cherish a lot. I equally have done a write-up in this direction.

  • Thanks for these links to sources of data useful for us to have good decisions or as evidence to substantiate our views and ideas during presentations.

  • I have since been devoted to this good cause and never wishing other wise.

  • 1) Aquaculture makes sense as solution as long as cons are taken care of.
    2) We rather should withdraw from the Marin colony and only visit them ceremonially. We therefore embrace fish growing on land, an kind of precision aquaculture.
    3) Only a deranged mind should attempt that with the fragility nature of our earth today. I kind am kind of the view that...

  • Nipping the problem at bud stage should be very important. In addition ocean cleanup should be to remedy what got built up in past years of less seriousness over such important issues.

    Paper based should be deeply researched into. This is because of their easily degradable qualities.

    This paper based packaging should equally rely on a more intensive...

  • There are waste buckets site close to my house. These buckets are not emptied as soon they are filled up, as result there are more on the grounds. In rainy season like at the moment the run off water generated tend to fill the huge potholes on the road. The water which usually absorb what ever pollutant chemicals from the waste leaching into the ground,...

  • 1 to 3 are very much important in considering what amounts to threats to the Ocean. It all depends on who or what is receiving the impact.

  • @MarkPickin If humans are there for vegetation and animal protection, who could possibly be there for the humans. No one should approve of any thing that reduces human population. We are wonderfully made and are equal to the task of saving this planet. Just as we show love to other species, we humans deserve it as well.

  • Thanks for the videos about the tides. I can now take it that what that is causing the tides is possibly what one should take into account in trying to fathom out why our earth seems to be suspended in the atmosphere. And the one about ocean current gives me much about climate change. A whole lot of unpacking is needed and I am very much excited. Will surely...

  • It has to be combined efforts we ought to do what is humanly possible at the moment and equally expedite research on geoengineering approaches.

  • I have already accepted my offer for MSc. Hoping to overcome some of my challenges to be there in September start.

  • Clifford C. Nwogu made a comment

    Brainstorm over this: what can you do with drones having GPS, Hot air balloon (solar power instead) with gyroscope, and you have an umbrella in your mind? The moon is a natural satellite and when it is in an 'isoval' or between the earth and the sun, then with a total eclipse, the cold temperatures observed or experienced could be achieved to reduce melting of...

  • @LeeScott Work to be done. How do we carry on or getting along as guilty as charged but it is our lives. Let's hope they will : 'Ecocides' Vs the 'Ecowarriors' will take the political stage; because AI is coming to help us make a choice of candidate. Ratings will include carbon footprints or other indices yet to be invented to prove a candidate's propensity to...

  • In fact, they are all worry me, there is a knock on effect. Glacial lake outburst, and water shortage to someone in Nigeria might not be of much concern unless one is as enlightened as I am. What if people suffering these are in trade exchange the reach Nigeria.
    The rising sea levels coming from melting of glaciers and ice sheets is of major concern. Imagine...

  • @FlorenceMcCarthy Brilliant idea, the likely ice block or boulder size could be calculated and the volume of water to be displaced can equally be calculated.

    Bob is your uncle, amount of water to be syphoned is figured out. This calls for celebration Florence, doesn't it?

  • Pros: With available technology, drones Structure For Motion we are getting close to reality, high resolution modelling of the past. This is really good progress, a milestone actually.

    Cons: While we have gotten the modelling of the past the way we expect, prediction is an area researchers should tread with caution. After manipulating the model we have at...

  • The first time I did a course like this, I did not bother about carrying out research at glaciers. It is not only scary, but tempting because my desire to meet targets or share inquisitive mind could lead one to take risks with little chances of survival. I have watched films like: Gravity, Rising Horizon........... DRONES are angels coming to save lives of...

  • You doing a great job, well-done.

  • @BarbaraLister Training the trainers is equally good in communication.

  • More stuff to digest, making us to appreciate your efforts. Thanks to our facilitators and researchers.

  • In the last 2 topics, bringing a spiritual dimension to this was good for us to reflect on : How the rivers and other natural systems were venerated by the people of the old in South Asia; and they did not witness the types of catastrophic events as of we are experiencing at the moment. In 2010 alone, the things experienced when mapped or in an earth modelling...

  • Reading that those pictures were taken by David Rippin is an act of bravery and ought to be acknowledged.

  • The article about South Asia's glaciers shrink is more awareness creation to us all. They are seeing climate change as a wake-up call. Moving from flood irrigation farming to pipe drip irrigation powered by solar is the type of practice we should be welcoming all over.

    When we carry on with activities that are not well researched, we could end up with...

  • Further resources landforms discussed in steps is very useful for all. Thanks a lot.

  • @NatashaGorton very good area to consider, fiction generating heat is one, and for another of the heat source, I am thinking of the rounded rock forms holding the glacier which could possibly become a concave lense form; that can focus the rays from the sun.
    This will equally generate heat, causing more melting.

    That dried lake could possibly be...

  • Surprised nobody has given you an answer. Lee from last year to now I am quite sure you should be surprised how much of the climate change terms you can play around with. Please, let nobody be inhibited by trying to amass the technical jargons of any field of study that weighs heavily on human sustainability.
    What is important is good understanding that will...

  • @BarbaraLister I can remember, it seems like I'd seen the video. I was getting BBC iPlayer I suppose during King Charles 111 coronation from Nigeria. But today trying to watch Big oil Vs The World returns no show, no show from my region.

    Could I request you give us some high lights of the contents? I bet I will not shout it down here cause I probably be...

  • @JuliaStern Good question because! That could be a reason for a person in governance, would not have endorsed some climate change mitigation measures before him or her.
    Measuring past changes is today easy, a piece of cake actually. Yes a carrot cake. The past lies in the layer of glacier, and preindustrial is pretty recent comparing to millions of years in...

  • @CarlosAlfonsoCortésB. Snow making by human machine to balance the ablation could spring some ideas. Ablation by the sun rays and energy from the sun to power the man made machine making the snow. Good contribution Carlos.

  • Thanks very much for the video. The shorter time scale changes, the glacial effect. They say, 'net attitude' understands Caps to mean shouting. GLACIAL EFFECTS! Imagine the human body system composed of 70 percent of water. Out of this 10 percent is say the blood. I have not researched much about the percentage biologically. Let us make an analogy with this...

  • Satellite as Sunshade

    As we have understood that most sheltered glacier do have more positive SMB, another possible question might be, could there be solutions to provide artificial sheltering of these glaciers?

    Permit me to start the thread in a " Serious Chatworld" thread:
    GPS can be employed to map out a free satellite orbital zone that is aimed...

  • David Rippin's post worths going back to understand this better. His post's paragraph 3 and all others got me imagining the equilibrium line to be not just on the surface of the ice mass.

    If you have read it, how do you see this?

    Also the higher you go the cooler it becomes was aiding the understanding of that paragraph 3.

    Does it also make sense to...

  • Thanks.

  • Thanks David I thought I was done with this but my to do got me back here going through your post. Very excellent one indeed.

  • Another possible way to understand this could be by imagining that all the involved: the earth, and the ablation actuators, and processes taking place in a time lapse video.

    As the sun rays for example flames on ice or glacier, receding line could be visualised going up the globe. Impliedly it is going high. But remember that on the other hand after the...

  • My view is that spaces are different and this need to be conserved. I could imagine that someone might sometimes; need to have a change of environment away from a usual environment of one's own culture.

    The child of multilingual or bilingual family might need this to be the school. That initial stage or formative stage of language learning can be reduced;...

  • Do not under rate the capability of a child to grapple with these situations. The mistake to make is to pigeon hole a child's development process. We have talked about the use of some cartoons which does make a good inputs.
    Environment change could equally help. Place them in the cultured cultural environment and they will pick what's necessary for them to...

  • I have used some educational games designed by myself. One which is stories written on papers that are having perforated lines to enable one turn it into puzzles. The learners will read the one given to their group secretly and tear it to make a puzzle that another group will have to put together.

    Each group tell the story or read it and just a very limited...

  • If a child keeps getting confused about the appropriate use of has and have or she and he in English language, starting a French Language learning will solve such error in grammar.

  • * singlets, doublets, mutual exclusivity bias, and so many other terms.

    * Good narrative skill we display later in life must have been based on our grasping and application of the referential and evaluative functions of narratives during those early learning stages in life.

    Wish: If this is something more than discovery learning; could there be anything...

  • That of using 'to have' to say one's age is very peculiar. This because the English use 'to be' instead of to have.
    We do get down to heated debate, I can tell you and we would wish that using 'to have' is more humble to God who has given us the gift of life. I do this usually in a missionary school, then comes my own question what language does the Holy...

  • When I am teaching young ones who are about to make a career choice, I usually point how much of scientific names or processes and originated from French. For example fer meaning iron in French, also has the chemical name Fe. Saponification and savon which is soap. First time on this I'd wished it be sapon......, Salon and Saloon etc.

  • This is also the case in French librairie is bookshop. Library in French is not in anyway similar - Bibliothèque. 'Why is this Teacher, have you found out why?' I always get this in my language class from learners.

  • Visual cues has been very paramount in my language learning with early learners. It equally does wanders for my French classes. Someone times I have discovered some of the children actually moving their lips following my pronunciations without voicing out. It usually tells that these or those ones are very eager to learn. This is very interesting article and...

  • Very good contributions, including the language tree. The similarity of Igbo language to french is fascinating. And most chemical names and processes we use in English are French names and or French derived. Later could be down to history I suppose.

  • I have been using questions to design the topics. Simply expect questions as topics in my French Language Teaching classes. Just as one hears that it makes room for the learner to explore, it enhances my use of dialogues to teach French language.

  • It should a gradual transition.

  • * Definition of multilingualism and bilingualism.
    * Teachers, and language and Speech practice should share their findings.
    Wish: Multilingualism and AI

  • An action to enhance/validate a child's multilingual identity is by initially, counseling the child how useful different languages could be as having different views of issues before decisions are made. The same goes with some encouragement that a multilingual learner is likely could grasp meanings of what are thought better, and I will measure this by...

  • Social issues like where priority is given to the language of the host is a focus point. UK education is doing well in trying to help everyone conserve or sustain their values, on this premise I would say, we work on the narrative before it is too late first.

    Let it be rooted in the mind of every child that all that there is to our world is the outcomes of...

  • Tender minds become mature minds with education. At the rooting stage, not much knowledge has yet been impacted to absorb any identity threats in a multilingual child learning development. This is the reality in less developed world where in most cases this has not been identified as problem. Equal opportunity, means therefore that SLT should not only limit...

  • I have added my comments to the map. I hope it shows.

  • This is going to be quite interesting.

  • Clifford C. Nwogu made a comment

    Today, I actually used the knowledge I got from here, after the first week, to add some excitements to the class I taught. It was very satisfying because it was very engaging kind of. I hope to get access to the second week learning.

  • Clifford C. Nwogu made a comment

    Despite my gadget challenges to access the course, it was worth it and I am looking forward to week 2 sessions.

  • Mine didn't.

  • Persevering until your niche appears is the way his message comes to me.

  • Creativity spectrum should likely be weighed from the appreciative standpoint. This could mean that human factor overides.

  • The phrase is authentication search engine, an AI powered by machine learning.

  • I have earlier said that this might not be a big challenge to do the categorisation or classification. We could get the AI itself to do this and any creative piece can be screened within nano second; that your search returns with the percentage of originality for that piece. Furthermore request can then give more details of original or primary algorithms that...

  • It simply calls for further categorisation or ownership classification. Just like in the use of information by writers: original and secondary information classification. We' ve been through this before. The previous must be acknowledged by the subsequent. By this perspective creativity will not be stagnated.

  • Clifford C. Nwogu made a comment

    Gesture recognition can assist disable people live happier life.
    Recommender may not likely categorise someone using the outcome as intent driven actuator. Hope my legal jargon squares up, do I need a 'wordcraft' AI technology this time?

  • I have checked out TendorFlow. I also like to check out Pytorch and the workflow chart has been very helpful.

  • Chloe robot says that humans have given it soul. The AI taking over should really be of concern. Viruses whether biological or digital are posing some threats to humans life at the moment. As of today their capabilities or potentials to interfere in humans daily life should be of some concerns: be it for a little period then their threats are being brought...

  • To give a most correct answer, project oneself to where AI is taking us to and not what is at the moment.

  • New approaches to create from natural, we capture, manipulate even to the extent that one could not be able to produce manually. We store, introduce some form of logic or not, and retrieve or output eventually. What is to be achieved defines the AI, while the process leading to that could be the ML.

  • I believe that I have known quite a bit of AI but one never stops learning, does one? l have just started again little by little, to get my hands on gadgets that will enable me to follow online studies like this. I look forward to be thrilled with new developments, trusting the pedigree of our training team, and networking with like minds to make the future...

  • I can see there is a challenge "What we cannot do is ..........." How about foregoing using what goes in or what comes out for our deduction; and take another scenario dream state instead of conscious or the mind when awake. Anyone who is capable of observing what goes on in the dream state could possible beat the challenge or solve the

  • I am up for the latest and here I am. Thank you for this opportunity.

  • It could be toward digital world. Virtual Reality designed set could be a threat.

  • New more cities will spring up and we might be wrong in our predictions about urbanization.

  • The time is now, watch out for macro sense of physical distancing in new city developments as a result of Covid -19 pandemic.

  • The word for me here is Holistic approach! Whole and encompassing to achieve that sustainability we crave for.
