CONTENTS INTRODUCTION TYPES OF CRISIS WATER CRISIS FOOD CRISIS ENERGY CRISIS ENVIRONMENT CRISIS FINANCIAL CRISIS CONCLUSION

INTRODUCTION - CRISIS unstable and dangerous situation

specific, unexpected and non-routine event

poor function - affects individual or whole society

immediate decision is necessary

TYPES OF CRISIS water crisis

energy crisis

food crisis

environmental crisis

financial crisis

WATER CRISIS

WATER elixir of life

70 % of our body content

limited and can be exhausted

cannot be substituted

WATER AVAILABILITY

WATER CRISIS

biggest crisis in terms of spread and severity

inadequate access to safe drinking water, sanitation, waste disposal

depletion in ground water level

CAUSES NATURAL REASONS

availability of water is small

global warming

NURTURANT REASONS

population explosion

Excessive irrigation

deforestation

pollution

Virtual water trade

EFFECTS rise of warfare

waterborne disease

damaged ecosystems

less rainfall

Hunger

education

Unfertile land

financial threats to the people

FACTS More than 3.4 million people die each

year from water, sanitation, and hygiene-related causes.

780 million people lack access to an improved water source; approximately one in nine people.

India ranks 120 in a list of 122 countries ranked for their water quality

Per capita water consumption

SOLUTIONS

rain water harvesting

reduce, recycle and reuse

desalinization technology

multinational treaties – water sharing

small improvements in handling water

ENERGY CRISIS

ENERGY

life blood of our daily life

key to rapid industrial growth

fuels in automobiles

sources of energy: hydro, solar, nuclear, wind, geothermal, biogas and wave

ENERGY CRISIS

increase in the global demand for energy

imbalance between production and supply

social, technical and political problem

disruption of energy supply and rapid increase in energy price

CAUSES population explosion

over consumption

increase in automobiles

lack of planning and technology

CAUSES

sharp increase in demand

power theft

shortage of coal 

poor utilization of electrical equipments

EFFECTS increase in price of natural gas,

gasoline, petrol, diesel

utilization of non-renewable energy

slow down in economy

Increased electrical blackouts / brownouts nationwide

FACTS around 1.6 billion people live without

electricity

an investment of $20 trillion is needed to meet the world's surging demand for energy over the next two decades

2.64 billion people are denied access to modern fuels for cooking and heating

SOLUTIONS

save energy

use efficient equipments

pay for what you use

adoptation of renewable energy

aquatic architecture

Aquatic architecture

built in middle of ocean

FLOATING TURBINE - water depth – 50 feet or less - wind is typically consistent and stronger - reduce visual pollution - in 2009, Norway, North sea

Aquatic architecture SOLAR ENERGY :

- flat open space withoutmuch cloud cover

WAVE ENERGY : - waves slowly turns thewave fans - simillar to that of windturbine

FOOD

to feed all of us

healthy and life giving nutrition

produced ecologically

eaten with gratitude and joy

FOOD CRISIS

rise in rates of prolonged hunger and malnutrition

sudden spikes in food prices

water mismanagement

land related problems

CAUSES climate change

low grain reserves

higher oil prices: transport

rise in the cost of fertilizers

over population

plant disease

EFFECTS poverty

damaged health

child labour

social-political instability

FACTS at present 854 million people-one person

in every eight are hungry

hunger kills 10 million people every year

a child dies of hunger every 5 seconds

average person throws away 194kg of organic waste each year

SOLUTIONS good governance

controlling the prices

food security analysis

improve the productivity level

weather protection device

ENVIRONMENTAL CRISIS

ENVIRONMENT

physical and biological factors

influence survival, development and evolution

surrounding that affects organism

aggregate of social and cultural conditions

ENVIRONMENTAL CRISIS

multiple forms of destruction

collapse of the planetary ecosystem

destabilizes the survival of species

irreversible worsening of the environment

CAUSES

climatic change

population explosion

environmental pollution

technological development

EFFECTS biodiversity extinction

damage mental and physical health

more expenditure in family and lowers their standard of living

resource depletion

FACTS approximately 5 million tons of oil

produced in the world each year ends up in the ocean.

50 million acres of rainforest are lost every year

Average temperatures will increase by 12 degrees Fahrenheit by the end of the 21st century

SOLUTIONS

curbing global warming

reviving the world’s oceans

defending endangered wildlife and wild places

protecting health by preventing pollution

FINANCIAL CRISIS

financial assets suddenly lose their large part of nominal value

associated with banking panics

stock market crashes

loss of paper wealth

TYPES

banking crisis

speculative bubbles and crashes

international financial crisis

wider economic crisis

CAUSES

stock market decline

unanticipated deflation

increase in interest rates

leverage

uncertainty and herd behavior

EFFECTS

deceleration of growth, economic contraction

increasing unemployment,poverty,hunger

contract action of world trade

real estate bubble

INDIAN ECONOMY GDP - $1.824 trillion (2012)

GDP by sector agriculture: 17.2%, industry:

26.4%, services: 56.4% (2011)

Population below poverty line29.8% (2010)

Unemployment 3.8% (2011)

Main industries textiles, chemicals, food processing, steel,transportation,cement, mining, petroleum, machinery, software, pharmacy

FACTS industrial production nearly fell by 45%

between 1929 and 1932

house building dropped by 80% and 5000 banks went out of business between 1929 and 1932

1.3 million people became unemployed

SOLUTIONS

national banking system

proper tax payment

stabilizing financial markets

safeguarding economic, development and social gains

CONCLUSION Recycle,reuse,reduce are the solutions for water crisis.

Efficient equipment should be used to save the energy and use of renewable energy should be initiated.

Government and private sector should expand their investment in agriculture productivity

CONCLUSION Curbing global warming to prevent ecological crisis

The government should close the opportunities for foreign corporations to compete unfairly against our home industries.

The government should institute policies to cut back our consumption, and particularly consumption of imported products.
