URBAN AGGLOMERATION IMPACT ANALYSIS USING RS AND GIS TECHNIQUES IN MALEGAON CITY, INDIA
Abstract:
During the past three decades the study area which is Malegaon city, has observed hasty urban growth which resulted in major environmental ecological problems, in urban and peri-urban areas. The study focusing on the changes in population, urban agglomeration, land cover and land use and its relation with population, urbanization that lead the problem of environment and water. From the satellite images which are taken at different time and date, and digital image processing classified land use like urban, forest, agriculture and water. This study revealed 78% increase

• Keeping track of water quality
• Forecasting future behavior through different models.
• Assessment Support Systems
• Design the urban areas by keeping in mind that water is sensitive issues
• Improve agricultural management measures.
• Mapping of acid sulfate soils and solve this problem.
Plastic waste management:
The advantages of plastic are many but the disadvantages can be decreased by the following points:
• Plastic that is waste can be recycled and it can be used for different purposes after recycling.
• The plastic can be burn by the incinerator but it produces the air pollution which can be controlled by the technology. The policies should be made for the production and selling of environmental hazard plastic.
• The eco-friendly bags can be made and used instead of plastic bags.
Urban planning:
The major contest for study district Malegaon is its land use patterns and unplanned urban growth. The urban environment according sustainable development can be design with the help of RS and GIS by considering the following points:
• Efficient land use
• using public transport
• protect the areas with natural vegetation
• Keep the environment
Impacts of Plastics on Laysan Albatross Located across the Pacific Ocean is a seabird known as the Laysan Albatross. These large birds glide gently over large distances with little to no wingbeats a day. They generally appear around the sandy beaches of the Hawaiian Islands. They have large heads with long, thin wings while showing off a vibrant white color across the body with dark circles around the eyes. These seabirds eat during the night by sitting on the water and catching smaller prey with their bills.
Prompt #1: In a connected system of parts the arrival of something new requiring shared resources will change the system. Different variables affect how society interacts, down to how a single person acts. This has been happening from the beginning of living organisms. Ecosystems change, environments collapse and new technology is introduced.
To recycle plastic one must use low temperatures. Since low temperatures are used residue is still left behind. If higher temperatures were used than toxins would be released. The truth is, plastic does not go away.
For example, we drink from it, eat from it. People from all walks of life depend on plastic so much as it is a cheap and convenient product. However, people do not know where do the plastic finally throw away. With highly consumption of plastic, it raises up various questions as mentioned above. In this documentary, Angela Sun would like to lead us to find out the answers of these thesis.
About 71 percent of our planet Earth is covered by water, and the majority comes from the oceans (about 96.5 percent of all Earth’s water). It remains as the most expansive, diverse, and mysterious places on planet Earth. But it is being threatened by the pollution by people and nature itself. By polluting the habitat of marine organism will indirectly affect the ecosystem of the marine life. Marine life is dying and as the result the oceanic ecosystem is threatened.
The reason plastic is used in many products is because it can withstand up to tons of pressure per cm3, is cheap, is durable, and finally, there is no worry for discoloring. But these days, plastic is becoming a major problem the world has to deal with. Plastic is thrown into the ocean, and it is breaking down into very small pieces, and killing marine life, as they mistake those pieces to their prey. As a matter of fact, nearly all plastics are recyclable, but it 's the recycling companies ' machines that refuse to recycle that kind of plastic(eartheasy.com). I. Plastic, what have you done?
Karin 20/08/2014 English 8A Nearly everyday in our lives, we see banners, magazines, newspapers, as well as posters telling us to be environmental friendly and to stop pollution. But do people listen to the advices? Do people realize that pollution is one of the biggest global killers? Pollution is the number 1 cause of death in the developing world; it kills approximately 10 million people every year. It’s hard to tell when and where pollution began.
Resistant on implementing and installation of the new technology might force government to really impose such regulation and that they are always monitored by the regulatory board and also penalties are very serious matter. 3. Plastic manufacturing produces toxic because it composes several chemical that might endanger the living organisms in the water and can be harmful to humans and it is against the law of the Philippines if companies are not responsible with its wastes. III.
Obviously the development of producing plastic went to quick and people did not think of a unified and sustainable way of how to dispose the huge amount of plastic. Unfortunately many countries decided to dispose all the garbage into the ocean but also ship accidents are a reason why so much plastic accumulated in our ocean. Every year more than eight million tons of plastic waste leak into the ocean. A big issue nowadays is that most of the plastic which is produced in one year is used to make disposable items of packaging or other short lived products that are discarded within a year (Philosophical Transactions of The Royal Society, 2009).
Now we are talking about recycling. So, what actually does recycling means? Turning used materials that are labeled as recyclable over to your local waste facility designated in a disposal container as “recyclable” materials to be taken and reused as material for a new purpose defines recycling . In order to create a new and different product, a recyclable product is turned back into a raw form that can be used. Recycling efforts can significantly reduce additional waste that will not only harm the planet today , but future generations as well.
2.1 Urbanization and river water quality Due to movement of people from rural to urban areas, physical growth of the urban areas occurs, which ultimately leads to the urbanization, Over the past several years, river systems have always been extensively altered to meet various human demands, which led to them becoming the most intensively influenced ecosystems by human activities on the Earth (Nilsson, et al., 2005 )]. ‘’Among these human activities, the influence of urbanization on river systems was the most significant, and 60% of river systems were changed profoundly because of urbanization in the world’’ as cited by (Nilsson, et al., 2005 ) Recently, a number of studies have been done to understand the effects of urbanization on river water quality. The study manifested on Pearl River Delta Economic Zone is in China, that there is a positive correlation between the rapidity of urbanization and the pollution levels of urban river water.
The Garden City One idea in rban design which was developed in nineteenth century ,which has survived until today,is the importance of green spaces in the cities. Ebenzer Howard was disturbed by the haphazard growth and the unhealthy conditions of the cities,he proposed an idea in his book entitled Tomorrow ,published in 1898 and the idea was of garden city. He described a town where the land remains in the single ownership of the community. In the central court all the public buildings would be located and around which all the dwellings would be distributed.
Industrial and capital hubs in developing countries are similarly characterized by multiple urban sprawls, informal settlements and overcrowding. The local governments or municipalities in many developing countries are highly challenged by mainly poor or weak policy and legislative provisions to regulate and enforce waste management guidelines. They also lack adequate funding and the correct capacity in terms of waste management personnel. All these challenges lead to situations where these local authorities are failing to take effective decisions with regards to solid waste management. It is worth noting that the decisions which municipalities are facing in terms of managing solid waste are not only difficult and capital intensive but they impact greatly on the natural environment as well as on social lives of people, therefore solutions to this issue are a matter of
INTRODUCTION URBAN LAND USED SYSTEM Urban land use system means the system which manages the land area in urban cities. The land in urban areas should plan very well to mitigate the issues that arise in the future. Planning of buildings, roads, highways, rail ways, ports, stations and flyovers has to be planned under this system. It is very important to plan the urban land properly by placing the infrastructures in the proper places because wrong management plans will creates huge cost for the economy.
The new place not only lacks such avenues for meaningful employment, it also lacks most civic amenities” URBAN AREA is that place where the density of human population is higher and the human-built features are vast in number when compared to its surroundings. Cities, towns etc comes under the urban areas. Urban areas are created and developed through the process of urbanization. According the census of India 2011, the urban area is defined as: • The places which are well facilitated; like having municipal facilities, corporational facilities, cantonment board or notified town area committee, etc.
