1Human Impact on the environment
2- When you look at the history of humanity it's
basically a relationship between the two most
complicated systems on Earth Human society and
nature. - Now , We are causing the devastation to our very
foundation of our life system that has given us
birth. - We should come out of the illusion that people
are separate from nature.
3Pollution
- Since the industrial revolution, society has had
a tendency to assume that the environment can
absorb any amount of pollution. - Many of the most disastrous incidents of
pollution involve industrial chemicals that are
toxic or carcinogenic
Pollution from thermal power plant
4Pollution and Acid rain
- Rain and snow carry the sulfuric acid formed
when sulfur reacts with water back to the surface
in the form of acid rain. - It causes loss of species diversity in bodies of
water. - Destruction of trees and organisms due to low pH
levels in ground water. - Extinction of a lot of species.
Trees killed due to acid rains
5Depletion of Ozone Layer
- Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are a class of
chemicals involved in ozone destruction. - Coolant in refrigerators and air conditioners
propellant in aerosol dispensers release CFCs. - Ozone depletion will cause and increase in the
number of people who develop skin cancer and
cataract.

6Global Warming
- Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere influences
global temperatures.Global warming during Earth's
current interglacial warm period has greatly
altered our environment and the distribution and
diversity of all life. - Global surface temperature increased
0.74 0.18 C (1.33 0.32 F) between the
start and the end of the 20th century - Broader effects are expected to include glacial
retreat, arctic shrinkage, including long-term
shrinkage of Greenland ice sheet, and worldwide
sera level rise due to global warming.
7Extinction of Species
- Over the last 50 years, about half the worlds
rain forests have been destroyed for pasture and
farmland or for timber - Rain forests have the highest species diversity
in Earth - It is estimated that at least 1/5 of the worlds
animals and plants will become extinct over the
next 50 years
8Non-replaceable Resources
- Fossil fuels Fossil fuels like coal, natural gas
and petroleum products once used are not
replaceable and will add global warming gasses
in to the environment. - Loss of top soil by repeatedly turning over soil
to eliminate weeds, by allowing animals to
overgraze ranges and pastures, and by practicing
poor land management we permit the wind and rain
to remove more and more - Pollution and depletion of ground water Water
seeps into aquifers at too slow a rate to replace
the large amount of water being withdrawn for
unnecessary use (watering lawns, washing cars,
and running fountains)
9Examples of Disastrous Events
- In the early 1970s, Lake Erie was so polluted
from large amounts of industrial chemicals that
few fish could survive there - The Exxon Valdez ran aground on the Alaska coast
in 1989, spilling 11 million gallons of oil and
killing thousands of marine animals. Even today
the evidence of damage to local wildlife
continues to mount - UN estimates by the middle of the century there
may be 150 million environmental refugees at any
given time from climate change.

11The 5 components of solving any environmental
problem
- Assessment
- Risk analysis
- Public education
- Political action
- Follow-through
12Assessment
- The gathering of information
- Data collection
- Performing experiments
- Make predictions
13Risk Analysis
- Use the information from assessment to predict
the consequences of environmental intervention - Evaluate the potential to solve the problem as
well as any adverse effects the plan might create
14Public Education
- Inform the public
- Explain the problem in understandable terms
- Present alternative actions
- Explain probable costs and results
15Political Action
- The public, through its elected officials,
selects and implements a course of action. - Exercise your right to vote.
- Write to elected officials.
- Support special interest groups.
16Global Warming Solutions
- Reducing the amount of gas released in the
atmosphere - energy efficiency
- renewable energy
- vehicle technology solutions
- Increase the efficiency of photosynthesis
17Why aren't we responding to climate change?
- First and foremost economy
- gtgtThe greatest weapon of mass destruction is
corporate economic globalization. - gtgtPeople think that, to implement
eco-friendly measures - is expensive.
- Lack of awareness
- gtgtMany people still dont know what is green
house effect. - gtgtwhat extent it is damging our eco-system
-
18Fundamental opportunity cost of economic growth
- As the economy grows, it displaces, it encroaches
upon the biosphere, and this is a fundamental
cost - What would it cost us to take carbon dioxide out
of the air and put oxygen back in it, which all
the green things do for us for nothing. - What would it cost to pollinating all of the
flowering plants. - In our modern globalized world growth continues
to be the focus of many corporations and
governments who deplete our environment for
economic gain.
19What BLAZE can offer?
- Blaze considered both environment and economy to
design products which keep balance between both
of them. - One of its kind is BLAZE occupancy based
lighting system. - On an average 30 of the energy on lighting can
saved by implementing occupancy based lighting. - There are other indirect benefits from occupancy
based lighting. Refer to annexure 1 -
20How occupancy based lighting works (example)
Provide light when and where it is required an
egress path for late night workers eliminates
unnecessary energy usage after hours.
21Estimates average saving potential for different
space types using occupancy sensors
- Private office 1350
- Conference room 2265
- Classroom 4046
- Restrooms 3090
- Corridors 3080
- Store areas (including warehouses) 4580
22Detection pattern of Occupancy sensors
23Features Blaze Occupancy sensors
- All occupancy detection sensors feature advanced
robust platform along with Day Light Harvesting
sensor inbuilt. - Easy installation with out retrofit or
reconstruction -
- On-board management selectable setting for
maximum control without requiring advanced
technical knowledge - Multiple rooms, HVAC and balcony doors easily
accommodated with no additional wiring required - Occupancy detection only requires single occupant
movement.
Wide range of cost effective and reliable
occupancy sensor are available with BLAZE
24ROI - Conclusions
- Average ROI for 30 saving 18-24 months
- Note Here we have assumed that the
Lighting fixtures are ON 12 -14 hours per day and
there is a saving of only 30 averaged
considering all the areas in a typical corporate
setup of the energy for Lighting through
Occupancy sensors. - This also includes savings through indirect
savings.
25What it contributes to environment
- Suppose if you going to save minimum of10000KWh
per month for you whole building see how it will
help environment
