EFFECT OF SPACE POLLUTION ON ENVIRONMENT AND HUMAN HEALTH
Dr. Sudhakar Jagannath Borase
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11107875
Abstract
Certificate
The problem of waste is now being felt in space as well as on earth. There is so much rubbish growing around the earth in space that a mission has to be launched for it. Scientists estimate that there is 7600 tons of space waste around the earth. If a small piece of debris hits a satellite in space, it could split into thousands of pieces. Not only is that, but the speed of the satellite in danger of increasing to 25000 kilometers per hour. Fragments of satellites orbiting in space at this speed can be dangerous to other satellites. It is better not to think about what will happen if these pieces hit a human spacecraft. In the current age of science and technology, the rate of launching satellites into space has increased rapidly. Private companies have also started sending satellites. Rockets and their components needed to launch a satellite into space do not usually return to Earth. They revolve around the earth. So naturally, the more rockets go into space, the more waste there will be. It usually lasts 10 to 15 years after launching a satellite into space. After that it fails. But it keeps moving in space. Moreover, some satellites fail after going into space. So they are also moving. So the more satellites go into space, the greater the risk. For this, the whole world needs to think of the future and take concrete steps

A STUDY OF CONSUMER’S AWARENESS OF ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY MOBILE BANKING IN DOMBIVLI
Manjushree Sanjay Dole
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11107904
Abstract
Certificate
Today, the use of mobile phones and the internet is an inseparable part of our daily lives. They play a significant role in every walk of day-to-day life, with banking not being an exception to this. Various mobile apps and websites have been developed to provide cost-effective and convenient facilities to customers. In the beginning, it was very difficult for a common man to adjust to this new system as cash transactions were a common and popular mode of making payments. However, the long queues and limited working hours of the banking system meant that a lot of time and energy was wasted on every transaction which led to fewer transactions per day. Further, the amount of paperwork involved meant that a lot of paper was used once and then discarded (Sesame, 2018). This was not environmentally sustainable. In the absence of Mobile Banking and Net Banking, the number of visits of the customers to Banks was significantly larger in number and if customers were using vehicles for these visits, it used to result in air and noise pollution, which was not environmentally sustainable.
Mobile banking has various benefits such as the convenience of checking account balance, and transactions, transferring funds, making and receiving payments remotely at any time, having fraud checking mechanisms, etc, faster than it would take them to do the same activity in person at the bank (Strohm, 2021).
Demonetisation and the COVID-19 pandemic proved that mobile banking is an essential service rather than a novelty (Wisniewski, 2022). This is due to the fact that it is both cashless and contactless.
This paper tries to focus on the customer’s awareness in the city of Dombivli of mobile banking in the city of Dombivli, with a special emphasis on its environmentally friendly aspect.

STUDY OF GEOETHICS AND ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES FOR MINING MINERALS IN INDIA
Anirudh Dilip Chakraborty and Dr. Rajendra Onkar Parmar
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11107914
Abstract
Certificate
The increasing incorporation of moral concerns and ethical values into industry practices could be a recent trend in mining governance, often enclosed underneath the umbrella term ‘responsible mining’. The effects of anthropogenic change require a strengthening of the socio-political and socio-economic anchoring of geoethical thinking. Geosciences are more than just technical and scientific disciplines. Geoscientific expertise connects geosciences and people's social life. The earth sciences are relevant to the functioning of societies, namely the operation of a techno sphere at local, regional and planetary scales. Therefore, expertise in geosciences includes a school of philosophical thought called Geoethics. Although originally conceived for professional use, geoethics should support the individual, professional and civil society actions of every citizen. India is blessed with important and large amounts of various natural resources that are primarily divided into 5 categories: fuel, metallic, non-metallic, atomic and minor minerals. The mining sites are generally in faraway and underdeveloped places along with indigenous lands and territories which are frequently ecologically sensitive. Mining enterprises have the ability to effect the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set up in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly, though historically a poor effect has been recorded that works against the fulfilment of the goals. We discuss a few suggestions for responsible mining that are all ethical practices to be followed by the mining sector in India

Mr. Naresh Uttamrao Patil
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11107921
Abstract
Certificate
Environmental governance is a concept in political ecology, environmental policy and human geography that support sustainable development as the highest consideration for managing human activities. Political, social and economic. Administration involves government, business, and civil society, and the emphasis is on system management as a whole. To capture this diverse range of components, environmental governance often uses alternative governance systems, for example watershed-based management. It sees natural resources and the environment as global public goods, which do not diminish when they are shared in categories. This means that everyone, for example, benefits from a breathable environment, stable climate and stable biodiversity.

DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11107937
Abstract
Certificate
The paper presents focused on the new agenda in Indian agriculture should have a goal that explicitly focuses on improving agricultural systems and addresses rural development in an integrated manner. While Indian agriculture has crossed the threshold of traditional farming to modern agri-business, the objective of ensuring equity and sustainability becomes all the more important. Agriculture must change to meet the rising demand, to contribute more effectively to the reduction of poverty and malnutrition, and to become ecologically more sustainable. This paper analyses the issues related to sustainable agriculture development. There is hope for positive changes as more and more farmers are becoming open-minded and government is coming up with new initiatives. The study recommends that problems – largely institutional, structural, and administrative – need to be overcome for development in general and sustainable agricultural development in particular. In general, the farmers considered their farm activities to be more sustainable than in the past. They demonstrated an understanding of the general idea of sustainable agriculture. The farmers demonstrated a realization that there were some new, or low-cost measures that could be introduced to make management more sustainable and pro-environmental, but there was still a need for wider adoption of sustainable agricultural practices.

DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108064
Abstract
Certificate
The growing population has a direct impact on the ecological balance. The world's population is growing rapidly and its adverse effects are being seen on the environment. In India, the population is on the rise and India's growing population is an obstacle to sustainable economic growth. As the population grows and the demand for goods and services increases, so does the pace of industrialization. Increasing industrialization is degrading the environment and raising the question of whether there will be natural resources for the welfare of future generations. Neglecting the environment in India will have dire consequences as the economy, which is being disrupted by environmental pollution, is adversely affecting people's livelihoods.

THE GREEN HYDROGEN POLICY OF INDIA
Dr. Priti Prasad Mahajan
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108111
Abstract
Certificate
The world is in transformation, and energy is at the center of it. Since 2000, India has been responsible for over 10% of the rise in global energy demand. India's energy demand has nearly doubled during this time, with the country's share of world demand rising to 5.7 percent in 2013 from 4.4 percent at the turn of the century. India's primary energy demand has increased from approximately 441 Mtoe in 2000 to approximately 775 Mtoe in 2013. In 2030, this demand is predicted to rise to around 1250 million toe (according to the International Energy Agency) or 1500 million toe (according to the Integrated Energy Policy Report). India's energy consumption has nearly doubled since 2000, with significant room for continued rapid expansion. However, the rise in domestic energy generation is far insufficient to meet India's consumption requirements.
Imports will account for more than 40% of primary energy supply by 2040, up from 32% in 2013. It's also worth noting that no country has ever been able to achieve a Human Development Index of 0.9 or higher without having at least 4 toe of yearly energy supply per capita. As a result, there is a significant unmet demand for energy services that must be met in order for people to have adequate earnings and a decent standard of living. India can use green hydrogen to decarbonize its energy-intensive sectors including industry, transportation, and power.

Dr. Gangotri Nirbhavane & Dr. Abhijit Sahasrabudhe
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108120
Abstract
Certificate
Sustainable agriculture is term used for growing food that will nurture environment, economy and society. Sustainable agriculture is capable of producing diverse forms of high-quality foods, fibers and medicines. It is regenerative farming which sufficiently produces food, fiber and repairs damage. In present era it is observed that prevalent practices of cropping under extensive as well as intensive farming have caused harm to soil and environmental problems because of which agricultural production cannot be sustained. Today’s industrial farming methods are depleting our natural resources through monoculture and overuse of pesticides and fertilizers. Sustainable agriculture is a way to maintain soil fertility, water purity, it preserves bio-diversity. It helps in conserving the biological, physical and chemical qualities of the soil.
Sustainable agriculture is an effort to produce food on a continuous basis, while adopting measure to overcome the damage caused by destructive practices. The principle of Sustainable agriculture points to -meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of the future generations to meet their own needs.
Sustainable agriculture is ecologically sound way, economically viable, socially just and humane, culturally appropriate and has a holistic as well as scientific approach. Sustainable agriculture does not deplete soil, it is based on the strategy to protect soil and water, and it supports local communities and promote health of the people.

IMPACT OF AIR POLLUTION ON SOLAR ENERGY GENERATION IN RAIGAD DISTRICT
Mr. Satyajit S. Kamble
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108128
Abstract
Certificate
Due to the continuous increase of environmental pollution in recent years, the high concentration of particulate matters in air has greatly reduced the amount of solar radiation that can reach the earth, and this reduction has a direct effect on the use of solar energy in buildings. To quantify this attenuation effect, historical meteorological data collected from Panvel region from January 2021 to December 2021 and it is used to investigate the correlation between clearness index (reflecting available radiation) and air quality index (reflecting pollution level). The analysis results have revealed that higher air quality index would result in lower clearness index, and the sunny days gave higher decreasing rate than cloudy days. This study presents an impact of air pollution and PV soiling on solar resources and techno-economic performances of PV systems.

Mr. P.S. Thakur & Mrs. G. U. Patil
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108144
Abstract
Certificate
Saving Electricity & making renewable sources of energy the alternatives for electricity generation is perhaps the biggest problem the world is facing now. Looking at current electricity generation requirements and the declining supply of non-renewable sources of energy, Solar energy & solar enabled devices are the only hope for the future generations to meet the rising electricity demands. This paper focuses on a very innovative technique used nowadays called the grid connected PV systems in which one can take a benefit of both, the solar generated electricity and the usual grid system as per the requirements. This paper analyzes the cost of installing grid connected PV systems and the monthly savings on electricity bills after installation and the approximate time required to recover all the invested money. This paper also compares the electricity bills of every month generated before and after installation of solar panels with the grid system. For this analysis, we obtained electricity bills from 2017 till date for every month and studied the electrical units, bill amounts, electricity exported from solar panels to grid system & electricity imported from grid system to the actual utility. It was observed that the electricity bill reduced substantially after installation of grid connected PV systems and hence grid connected PV systems can be a good alternative in the near future.

DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108170
Abstract
Certificate
Role of land in the context of economic development of tribal is essential. Provisions of decent alternative livelihood support to the tribal and political economy of land relations are important because land is more contentions assets. Land relations are crucial in case of tribal development, well known economist Daniel Thorner remarked that colonial rule had left India with the most refractory land relations. To study the Impact of Land Acquisition on Tribal Development in India, to study a role of Government in tribal development and analyse Rehabilitation and resettlement policies of Government of India for displaced people are the objectives of this study. This study is purely based on doctrinal and qualitative approach for thorough analysis of existing data through studies, research papers, websites and observation of focus groups. Whenever government perform land acquisition for eminent domain tribal are often suffered. Tribal development is always underestimated by policy makers. Land is not only the source of bread and butter for tribal, but also a matter of dignity. While acquiring land under the eminent domain by government, tribals are often suffer because they are less united and do not have much bargaining power and that is why it is easy for the government to acquire tribal land.

DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108183
Abstract
Certificate
Labour plays an important role in shaping the growth of a country. Major labour force of India earns their living through work in the unorganised segment of the economy. Unorganised sector is in existence in rural as well as in urban areas. In rural areas Smaller and marginalized farmers, landless farmers, fisherman, wood cutting, labours in animal husbandry, brick kilns, quarries, mills etc. falls in unorganised sector. In urban areas construction workers, labourers in small scale industry, casual labour, handloom workers, employees in shops and commercial institutes, sweepers and scavengers, workers in other unprotected labour came in to this sector. There are various beneficiary schemes for organised workers but there are very less beneficiary schemes to unorganised sector workers.It is important to have welfare policies for unorganized workers because they form major proportion in Indian economy over organized sector. Because they they are having uncertainty in their work and wages. This gives rise to various problems. Like education of their children, pension, leaves and compensation etc. Though India is developing country there are many welfare schemes for unorganised sector workers are implemented. Labour welfare is in concurrent list so both central and state governments had worked some plans on labour welfare according to their needs .But there are many hurdles in implementations of these welfare schemes such as low literacy rate, lack of information, migrant workers, child labour etc. In the present research paper an attempt has been made to study some welfare schemes for unorganised workers and problems in their implementation

A ZERO-SUM GAME? LOOKING AT THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF PUNE CITY
Dr. Manisha Viraj Pimpalkhare
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108747
Abstract
Certificate
The conflict between economic development and environment sustainability appears to be never ending. While the world as we know it is melting in the onslaught of climate change manifested in untimely rains, loss of agriculture, and threat to the cities from rising sea levels, a ‘global-to-local’ vision is imperative for understanding the issues in proper perspective. This paper is an attempt to trace the economic development of Pune city which has emerged as a major urban centre in the last few decades with all its economic glory, in the form of educational centres par excellence, magnificent IT and auto clusters, and a bustling young population. A noticeable change in the social culture has added colours to this development. All these factors converge into an undeniable fact that Pune has arrived on the global map. While this journey is fascinating enough, the questions that need to be asked are about the loss of irreplaceable environmental assets of trees, river bodies, pleasant climate and quality of life that comes from these environmental treasures.

DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108802
Abstract
Certificate
Agriculture is India's most common occupation and is often regarded as the country's economic backbone. The share of agriculture in gross domestic product (GDP) has reached almost 20 per cent for the first time in the last 17 years, making it the sole bright spot in GDP performance during 2020-21, according to the Economic Survey 2020-2021. Agriculture is strongly established in Indian culture, and it is more than a career or a business. Tourism is a growth driver for many countries throughout the world. Agrotourism is a type of tourism that combines farming with tourism. As a result, supplementing agricultural revenue with some touristic activity is bringing fresh optimism and better lives to the region. Agrotourism is a sort of alternative tourism that is a better option than mass tourism in current scenario. People in urban areas are becoming agitated and distancing themselves from nature. They get away from their city lives every now and then. This study discusses how agrotourism can be used to boost agriculture and strengthen rural communities of Karjat taluka which is located at Raigad district of Maharashtra state.

SEVERE CYCLONIC STORMS OVER THE ARABIAN SEA- A RISING ECONOMIC BURDEN
Dr. Smita Salunke
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108896
Abstract
Certificate
Climate change is the outcome of natural as well as man-made reasons. What we currently see is a set of erratic climatic episodes which are predominantly correlated to excessive amounts of CO2 and other GHGs released by mankind. Mankind definitely seems to have not been kind enough in matters of environmental protection and conservation.
Although scientists are uncertain whether climate change will lead to an increase in the number of storms, there is more confidence that warmer ocean temperatures and higher sea levels are expected to intensify their intensity and impacts. Stronger hurricanes will be far more costly in terms of damages and deaths without action to make coastal (and inland) areas more resilient.
The economic cost of climate change can be seen in the ever-growing losses caused by cyclones and hurricanes. As a result of global warming, cyclones are proving to be the worst accounting for major loss of lives as well as economic damage.

TEMPORAL CHANGE IN AREA UNDER FOOD CROPS IN HIMACHAL PRADESH
Mrs. Yashu Sharma
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108923
Abstract
Certificate
Himachal Pradesh is primarily an agricultural state, with agriculture employing 71% of the population and cash crops accounting for the majority of the state's earnings. Wheat, maize, rice, barley, seed-potatoes, ginger, vegetables, vegetable seeds, mushrooms, chicory seeds, hops, and olives are among the most important food crops cultivated in Himachal Pradesh agriculture. Because of its large-scale fruit production, Himachal Pradesh is also known as the "Apple State of India." Farmers' principal priority is how to make the best use of limited land. The current research seeks to examine the change in area under different food crops in Himachal Pradesh from 1990-91 to 2015-16. According to the findings, the state's typical cropping pattern is altering. From 1990-91 to 2015-16, the area under cereals and pulses in Himachal Pradesh declined by 5.1 percent and 1.5 percent, respectively, while the area under fruits and vegetables grew. The state is moving away from cultivating cereals and pulses and toward growing fruits and vegetables. During the given time, the biggest negative change in the area of cereals was discovered in Shimla, while the highest positive change in the area of cereals was found in Solan. Shimla district has the largest positive change in fruits, whereas Una district has the highest negative change in the given time. The most practical method for utilising these restricted resources is to adjust the cropping style.

Abstract
Certificate
Robert Forst has created indelible niche as a nature poet in the realm of American Literature. He is a prolific American poet of twentieth century who combines humanity and nature. He emphasizes on inter-relationship between nature and man. He focuses on the manner in which human emotions and nature are inseparable. In his poems--“Birches”, “Stopping by Wood on Snowy Evening” and “After Apple-Picking” he convincingly relates the human emotions, feelings and nature. He narrates a story of a man who deeply connected with snowy evening while passing through the woods spontaneously. He also depicts his attachment with the nature and observes the beauty of the forest but at the same time, he agrees the woods are lovely but he has to control his temptation as he has certain responsibilities to be performed in his life. Frost reflects his nostalgia after observing a common birch tree and traces how in company of nature human people can accomplish highest bliss. After Apple Picking is also an embodiment of significant facet of nature becoming source of happiness. In short, poet witnesses the presence of nature in human life. There is inspiring and powerful philosophical vein prevalent in the nature poems of Robert Frost. This research paper primarily aims at exploration of beauty of nature and its grandeur in the poems of Robert Frost.

Digambar K. Patil & Jitendra M. Pawara
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108962
Abstract
Certificate
The new mixed ligand complexes of the Cerium metal are obtained by using (2Z)-2-(N-hydroxyimino)-1, 2-diphenylethan-1-ol as a primary ligand and various amino acids like L-Arginine, L-Glutamine, L-Asparagine as a secondary ligand .The analysis of synthesized complexes has been carried out on the basis of elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility measurements, electrical conductance details, UV-Visible and IR spectrophotometric measurements, TG DTA studies. All new complexes are formed in the ratio of 1:2:1 which is finalized by elemental analysis. Paramagnetic nature of the new synthesized Ce (III) complexes has been confirmed by magnetic susceptibility measurements. Electrical conductance studies clears their non-electrolytic nature. FTIR spectra shows that the Cerium(III) metal ion is bonded to primary ligand and secondary ligand through donor atoms which are N and O atomes present in the given ligands, while intra ligand and LCMT transitions are proved by electronic absorption spectra of the complexes. The thermal studies of complexes reveal the presence of coordinated H2O molecules, metal ion and primary as well as secondary ligand in the synthesized complexes. Antibacterial activity of all the complexes studied against selective microorganisms S. typhi, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, C. diphtheriae by Tube dilution and Agar cup methods exposes that the complexes have moderate activity against the chosen microorganism strains.

EXTRAPOLATING DATA BY USING POLYNOMIALS: A CASE STUDY ON PANVEL TAHSIL POPULATION
Sagar Lahanu Khairnar
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108970
Abstract
Certificate
In the numerical analysis, spline interpolation is a form of interpolation where the interpolant is a special type of piecewise polynomial called a spline. That is, instead of fitting a single, high-degree polynomial to all of the values at once, spline interpolation fits low-degree polynomials to small subsets of the values. Spline interpolation is often preferred over polynomial interpolation because the interpolation error can be made small even when using low-degree polynomials for the spline. Spline interpolation also avoids the problem of Runge's phenomenon, in which oscillation can occur between points when interpolating using high-degree polynomials.

ROLE OF VLOGGERS IN ENHANCING ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS AND SUSTAINABILITY – A CASE STUDY OF SINDHUDURG DISTRICT OF MAHARASHTRA
Mr. Shivaji Vishnu Naik
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108976
Abstract
Certificate
Videoblogs (vlogs) have emerged as a new form of communication in a virtual community. During Corona, pandemic viewers on various online platforms increased due to a number of phases of lockdown. The objective of this study was to explore and understand the video vlogger community, its content, and its impact on viewers. The number of vlogs has increased significantly in the last few years. Video blogs (or vlogs) are blogs where each post is a video. Vlogs have become increasingly popular over the recent years. The use of videos allows the video bloggers (vloggers) to express their opinions/views and interact with their viewers/subscribers more directly and interactively. Most vloggers look to other vloggers and friends for feedback and support (Luers, 2007). Luers (2007) also identified a few social needs fulfilled by vlogging- being connected, finding validation for one’s experience and ideas, and being a producer as well as a consumer (Luers, 2007). As vlogs are becoming increasingly popular, their potential business applications cannot be overlooked. Sindhudurg is the smallest district in Maharashtra with a population of 849,651 (2011 census). Located in one of the hotspot regions in Western Ghat increasingly witnessed by many events. Especially mining, sons of soil issues, power projects, road projects, deforestation, elephant migration, tourism, etc. Vlogs can not only serve as web-based journals for everyday users but also can be used as a motivation factor. Hence this paper is an attempt to understand the role of regional vloggers in creating awareness about the environment and sustainability

DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11108995
Abstract
Certificate
Tourism is one of the most vital industries in the global economy. It is a tool for development in countries where there are fewer resources available. One of the significant aspects of tourism is its impact on the stakeholders. One of the important stakeholders in tourism is the host communities at tourist destinations. Local communities are involved in the tourism industry directly or indirectly. The tourism industry has a significant impact on the lives and livelihood of the local populations. The locals living near tourist destinations always have a different viewpoint towards tourists and tourism. Understanding of the local perception towards tourism activity is considerably important as it can help in the careful understanding of tourism in that destination.
In Himachal Pradesh, Kangra is the most populous and well-known district for tourism. A perspective survey was conducted to understand how tourism activity impacts the local communities in the two tourist centres of the Kangra district. Dharamshala and Palampur were the two tourist centres where the survey of 200 local populations was carried out. A total of 32 indicators or outlook statements were considered here covering the aspects of the environmental, economic, infrastructure, and socio-cultural impact of tourism. These impacts were categorized as positive and negative impacts. The purpose of this research was to examine how tourism influences the way of life of host communities in Kangra district, Himachal Pradesh as a case study and thereby give suggestions for sustainable tourism development in the region.

SURFACE RUNOFF ESTIMATION OF AMRAVATI RIVER BASIN USING INTEGRATED SCS-CN, RS AND GIS TECHNIQUES
Dr. Satish P. Patil
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11109009
Abstract
Certificate
A river basin is a hydrological unit surrounded by natural ridges that allow the runoff to drain in a well-defined drainage pattern of streams flowing within the boundaries of the watersheds due to rainfall. Rainfall and runoff are the substantial hydrologic component in the water resources assessment. Various methods are available to estimate runoff from rainfall; still, the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) method remains the most popular and often used method as runoff curve number (CN) is an essential factor of the SCS-CN method and depends upon land use/land cover (LULC), soil type, and antecedent soil moisture (AMC) data. Also, various parameters, such as Hydrological Soil Characteristics (HSG), precipitation (P), Potential Maximum Retention (PMR), and Antecedent Moisture Condition (AMC) are the mandatory inputs to the SCS-CN model. In the results, the daily runoff from the Amravati River basin for an average of 31 years, i.e., 1990 to 2021, has been used. As a result, the average annual surface runoff calculated for the Amravati River basin is 223 mm. The total average volume of runoff is 1.77 X 108 m3/year or 1.77 X 1011 Liters/year or 6.25 thousand Million Cubic Feet (TMC), representing 35.68 % of the total average annual rainfall.

RIVERS - LIFELINES FOR ECONOMIC GROWTH
Mr. Haribhau Sama Kharat
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11109023
Abstract
Certificate
When Arthur Hamilton wrote the famous song “Cry me a River" in 1953 he used it as a metaphor for grief. Today that grief may well pervade the state of our rivers in India. Rivers have had both a cultural, economic and spiritual significance in the life of Man since time immemorial. For example the famous Dr David Livingstone a medical missionary whom we learnt about in school, went on a long adventure of the Rift Valley which extends all along from Egypt to East Africa, in search of the origin of the Nile. When Henry Morton Stanley met Dr Livingstone in the town of Ujiji on the shores of Lake Tanganyika he is known to have uttered those famous words “Dr Livingstone, I presume". Many old civilisations flourished next to rivers and that is true of India as well. The first Harappan civilisations were located next to the River Indus. The Indus Valley Civilisation located itself mainly in the north-western regions of South Asia extending from what today is northeast Afghanistan to Pakistan and northwest India. Along with ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia it was one of three early civilisations of the Old World and of the three, perhaps the most widespread. In this paper I will try to prove the importance of Rivers in Indian Economy and its growth.

Mrs. Sneha T. Bandal, **Mrs. Michel Jancy Arul Kumar
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11109117
Abstract
Certificate
India being Agro-based country, majority of rural households depend upon agricultural sector but currently facing two major problems related to availability of fertile land and water, so integration of aquaculture and agriculture i.e., Aquaponics is a big hope for sustainable crop production at a very minimum cost and less requirement of water and land.
As per primary research, not everyone is aware about its benefit and demand in coming times. The main aim and objective of this study is to make people aware about aquaponics farming techniques its benefits especially in underdeveloped region with scarcity of water and land and educate people about setting up aquaponics systems. People will have a positive approach towards adopting this method not only commercially but also individually, as suggestions one can set up aquaponics individually at home backyard or terrace, govt. can take initiative in making people adopt this system in private buildings and infrastructures.
So as conclusion, it will become consumers first preference as the food produced using aquaponics method is 100% organic and chemical free and variety of crops can be grown.
Also, for entrepreneurial spirits it’s the most demanded field, generating employment by attracting youth towards agriculture sector, sustainable development and waste management and welfare towards the society and its development.

A STUDY THE IMPACT OF EFFECTIVE CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT ADOPTED BY BANKING INDUSTRY
Dr. Vinod Chandwani
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11109117
Abstract
Certificate
Customers are the focal point in the development of successful marketing strategy. Marketing strategies both influence and are influenced by consumers’ affect and cognition, behavior and environment. In the banking field a unique ‘Relationship’ exists between the customers and the bank. But because of various reasons and apprehensions like financial burdens, risk of failure, marketing inertia etc., many banks are still following the traditional ways of marketing and only few banks are making attempts to adapt CRM. It is with this background, the researcher has made a modest attempt towards the idea that CRM can be adapted by the Greater Bank in the banking industry for betterment of Banking Services. The lack of understanding on Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is always a concern among the service providers especially banks. Banks have their own way of managing their relationships with the customers. However, the perception of customers on CRM practices among banks should also be taken into consideration. Here in this paper, effort is given to study the comparative perception of Greater Bank customers in the issue of CRM practices. It is observed that the approach of CRM by Greater Bank and other nationalised are to some extent same and one but the reach is quiet distinguishable. It is due to the profile, their capability and the strategy of CRM in making it and reaching down to customers. On the contrary, it can also be asserted that the background of both banks also found as a big cause for reaching the top CRM. Hence, CRM is an inevitable tool of marketing that can be considered as Critical Responsibility of Market with regard to Banks in present context.

Abstract
Certificate
Geography is an interdisciplinary subject studies the man-environment relationship over a period of time along with spatial distribution. The subject includes the physical and man-made environment. The modern society is responsible for disturbance in natural geographical environment having negative impact on people. There is need to conserve the environment for sustainable development. Geographical knowledge can be well described with the help of graphs, diagrams, tables, photographs, satellite images and maps. Geography is one of the important subjects taught in schools by using different methods. Map is a tool used to create geographical environment awareness among school children. The map reading and map filling skills are very much important to teach and learn about geographical environment, its degradation and conservation. After thorough observation the researcher felt that there was a need to look at the awareness level of subject content in relation to map reading skills as an effective strategy to understand environmental conditions, degradation and its conservation. Thus evaluation of awareness level of a group of rural and urban students including boys and girls was carried out. Environment Awareness Measure was used as a tool for data collection. Map Reading technique was used to understand the aspects of geographical environment, its degradation and conservation in relation to global warming. After environmental awareness training, another Environment Awareness Scale was used to measure awareness level. The data has been compiled by using percentiles, correlation and ‘z’ test techniques. The concluding remarks and findings were based on the data analysis and observations.

OPPORTUNITIES AND STATUS OF TOURISM ACTIVITY IN JUNNAR TEHSIL FOR RURAL UPLIFTMENT
Mr. D.D. Bombe & Dr. Prakash Dongre
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11109167
Abstract
Certificate
Tourism is a major economic sector that deploys natural and man-made resources. Junnar Tehsil has a wide range of tourist attractions. It is needed to be integrated with pilgrimage and agro-tourism for tourism promotion with the sense of environment conservation and overall development of the Tehsil. The identification of tourism potential and supportive development may cause the multi-tier effect of rural development which was dreamed by Mahatma Gandhi. His thought was provoking and it inspired the search for new assets for rural development so that employment opportunities would be available in rural areas. The migration flow of labour would be from urban to rural areas instead of rural to urban. The tourism industry is an upcoming sector which is responsible for generating value of resources and in turn helping the rural development. The tourism industry will also help to reduce regional imbalance by overcoming the gap between urban and rural as well as the rich and poor by generating new assets for economic opportunities. The Junnar Tehsil is tremendously affected by the expansion of the tourism industry. Thus, the government has declared the Junnar as tourism tehsil on 9th January 2018 and made a tourism development plan for the tehsil. The present investigation proposes to assess the requirement and development of tourism activity in Junnar Tehsil as well as potentials of tourism activity for rural development. For that purpose the data is collected from primary and secondary sources and wisely interpreted with specific evidences to conclude the relationship of tourism and rural development in Junnar Tehsil of Pune district.

MICRO CLIMATE – CASE STUDY OF PUNE
Dr. Prakash Dongre & Miss. Mewada Yamini B.
DOI : 10.5281/ERJ.11109205
Abstract
Certificate
The term urbanization refers to a process whereby a traditionally rural bound community, wholly or partially, moves to adopt a different pattern of life where activities are basically non-primary. Urbanization in India began to accelerate after, 1991 due to the country's adoption of a mixed economy, which gave rise to the development of the private sector. In India new cities are emerging whereas existing cities are growing horizontally and vertically. Due to lack or poor planning, majority of the cities of India are facing various environmental, economic and social issues. Construction activities in cities results disappearance of vegetation cover and wetlands. This may results in formation of Urban Heat Island (UHI). Large build-up areas, concentration of anthropogenic activities and multistoried buildings makes urban area warmer then surrounding country side. Within the UHI researchers also identified the areas of lower temperature and they termed it as Urban Cool Islands (UCI). As per the studies in different cities of the world it is realized that UCI can mitigate negative impact of UHIs. So the town planners can consider the creation of artificial UCIs in those areas associated with warmer temperature in the cities.

The main aim and objective of this study is to make people aware about aquaponics farming techniques its benefits especially in underdeveloped region with scarcity of water and land and educate people about setting up aquaponics systems. People will have a positive approach towards adopting this method not only commercially but also individually, as suggestions one can set up aquaponics individually at home backyard or terrace, govt. can take initiative in making people adopt this system in private buildings and infrastructures.
So as conclusion, it will become consumers first preference as the food produced using aquaponics method is 100% organic and chemical free and variety of crops can be grown.
Also, for entrepreneurial spirits it’s the most demanded field, generating employment by attracting youth towards agriculture sector, sustainable development and waste management and welfare towards the society and its development.

The modern society is responsible for disturbance in natural geographical environment having negative impact on people. There is need to conserve the environment for sustainable development. Geographical knowledge can be well described with the help of graphs, diagrams, tables, photographs, satellite images and maps. Geography is one of the important subjects taught in schools by using different methods. Map is a tool used to create geographical environment awareness among school children. The map reading and map filling skills are very much important to teach and learn about geographical environment, its degradation and conservation. After thorough observation the researcher felt that there was a need to look at the awareness level of subject content in relation to map reading skills as an effective strategy to understand environmental conditions, degradation and its conservation. Thus evaluation of awareness level of a group of rural and urban students including boys and girls was carried out. Environment Awareness Measure was used as a tool for data collection. Map Reading technique was used to understand the aspects of geographical environment, its degradation and conservation in relation to global warming. After environmental awareness training, another Environment Awareness Scale was used to measure awareness level. The data has been compiled by using percentiles, correlation and ‘z’ test techniques. The concluding remarks and findings were based on the data analysis and observations

Tourism is a major economic sector that deploys natural and man-made resources. Junnar Tehsil has a wide range of tourist attractions. It is needed to be integrated with pilgrimage and agro-tourism for tourism promotion with the sense of environment conservation and overall development of the Tehsil. The identification of tourism potential and supportive development may cause the multi-tier effect of rural development which was dreamed by Mahatma Gandhi. His thought was provoking and it inspired the search for new assets for rural development so that employment opportunities would be available in rural areas. The migration flow of labour would be from urban to rural areas instead of rural to urban. The tourism industry is an upcoming sector which is responsible for generating value of resources and in turn helping the rural development. The tourism industry will also help to reduce regional imbalance by overcoming the gap between urban and rural as well as the rich and poor by generating new assets for economic opportunities. The Junnar Tehsil is tremendously affected by the expansion of the tourism industry. Thus, the government has declared the Junnar as tourism tehsil on 9th January 2018 and made a tourism development plan for the tehsil. The present investigation proposes to assess the requirement and development of tourism activity in Junnar Tehsil as well as potentials of tourism activity for rural development. For that purpose the data is collected from primary and secondary sources and wisely interpreted with specific evidences to conclude the relationship of tourism and rural development in Junnar Tehsil of Pune district.
