Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the growth of population in Bangladesh, houses and other settlements are increasing horizontally in rural areas. However, non-demographic factors are more responsible for such expansion as the study reveals. There are a number of social, cultural, political, economic and other reasons behind the new settlements on cultivable land. Based on the study at a rural village in Bangladesh, it argues that the area of land for cultivation has been decreased over the years. People who build new settlements on cultivable land rationalize the benefits of new home and other settlements in kind rather than in cash. The study is based on the theory of rural settlement. If the government or any authority is to take some steps regarding the declining trend of cultivable land in rural areas, the socio-economic background of the households and the non-demographic factors must be considered with great attention.

Download or read book Evolution of Rural Settlements in West Bengal 1850 1985 written by Sukla Sen and published by Daya Books. This book was released on 1989 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alteration of the physical condition of a region through natural processes forces men to give up their age-old occupations and to take up new ones. This is followed by a corresponding redistribution of population. The latter phenomenon is also motivated by a change in the economy of the region, through a change in the mode of production. It is needless to say that rivers are of vital importance in a deltaic land of their own creation. The rivers of the Bengal delta were responsible for a particular form of economy of her people who concentrated along the banks of the rivers. But deterioration of the river channels coupled with human interference brought in a number of problems including agricultural decline, beginning of malaria fever, periodic growth and decay of population and tendency of clustering of population away from river banks to sites along railways and roads. The moribund Ganga delta was selected for the study due to its very special settlement problems. In this moribund Ganga delta when the land-building activity of the rivers ceased, there set in a period of physical stagnation, a period of transition witnessed the worsening of the salubrious climate with consequent downward trend in population density and decline in agriculture in comparison to earlier periods (pre-1850s). After the lapse of a century, the study area suddenly experienced a cataclismic increase of population which are not due to any improvement in ecological situation, but owing to mass immigration from the then East Pakistan (Bangladesh), which was followed by a larger cropped area and other manifestations of economic development in post-independence period.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the "greenhouse effect" and "global climate change" have been the subjects of scientific scrutiny for many decades, only recently have they received widespread public attention. Two major events helped generate this attention. First, in 1990 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published its findings on the science, impacts and policy implications of climate change. The findings of the IPCC, prepared and reviewed extensively by the world's leading experts in the field, confirmed that the increasing atmospheric concentrations of "greenhouse" gases, such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and the chlorofluorocarbons, could cause the world to warm and sea level to rise. Second, in 1992 the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) inRio de Janeiro focussed the attention of the world's national governments, as well as organisations and individuals outside the governments, on the threat of global climate change. The Framework Convention on Climate Change (FCCC), signed by nations at UNCED, reflects both the concern about the effects of climate change and the urgent need for action to prevent or reduce its potential impacts, particularly with respect to the vulnerable developing countries of the world. Bangladesh ratified the FCCC on 15 April 1994. The countries that have signed and ratified the FCCC are obligated to report to the Conference of the Parties (CoP) to the Convention on a number of inter related issues.
