Environmental management systems for the warming world | Dr. May Mathew | TEDxChoiceSchool


hi I’m standing in front of an elegant

crowd and I’m really happy to introduce

my egalitarian theories formulated by me

through my research which is always a

passion for me for the last 10 15 years

or maybe 20 years very good evening to

all of you

the organizers speakers guests and all

environmental management systems for the

warming world that is my topic and I’ll

start with the poem written by me which

explains how I got into this

sustainability research and all the

background information you will get so

that you may not be able to ask me many

questions how and I landed up in this

sustainability research

I am from gods on land brought up in the

best blessed land

I am molded up by the real world and

because I’m just an average calculate

brought up in a place like born and

brought up in a place like China City

which is Mitch Kerala and the later part

of my life I was spending mostly in

inoculum and little wild time I was in

Delhi and I was surveying Pune also then

little time I was abroad of course I

joined my better half and siblings who

are who are always now or now they are

working in Middle East as well as in

America and also the places because now

I’m working as senior town planner I’m

working here alone and all my family

members are a Bey that you must

understand that’s with a dedication to

practice my theory Symes that is I am

remaining here and I’m working here as

senior town planner now in greatest

coaching Development Authority I’m the

head of the department there and on the

on the expectation that I will became

getting some chance to practice my

theories which would be beneficial for

my city and in turn it will be

beneficial for the entire world and my

characteristics I myself there that is I

myself decided and I know myself that is

I have got a strong will and also her

time I spring this I have got a logical

mind and I of course may be a paucity or

it may negative I have the habit of deep

thinking which I started thinking I

adore about mice

I found that it is not the it is not a

right thing to do because life is to

live not to think much so I wrote that

my flair because I always wanted to see

that all the negative things everything

has got a positive so I just wanted to

fit my characteristics my ability to a

positive thing so that and that I wanted

I rotate my flair for a berkeley cause

that is kept me occupied and content

give me acceleration as i use my spare

time because i never compromised my job

i never compromised my family the spare

time I have used for the betterment of

the world and I rooted my flair for the

vertical cause of global warming but the

will of die because I always believe in

God I am a big strong believer of God

form theories and concepts useful to

mankind and for the stable earth but for

but it is but a Herculean task to catch

the words I determined to work for the

course along with my dear ones to enjoy

it to the entire world a cool solace for

the bombing word one time till they

reach my god that’s a poem I I hope you

all of you much might have got some idea

how because everything my flare it has

come internally not from externally I

myself had to survive in a very happy

and content mood that’s why I wrote it

all my flair to her to us discourse and

in 2013 on the day about the 22nd day of

my daughter birthday of my daughter I

registered an NGO my name center for

environmental efficiency to propagate

and further develop the EA and CC

theories which were evolved my by me

during my PhD research in 2011 from the

Cochin University of Science and

yeah

he and CC theory I always I already told

you that is through my PhD research and

for which my Z has been formulated and

further I have improvised my c AE

environmental efficiency to may value

and my a I improvise my carrying

capacity to tone value and the like I’ll

explain what is may value because just

imagine earth is a factory orbit is a

machine so something is produced there

it has got a little it input as well as

an output what is input this is a

collage achill footprint that is all of

this will be knowing what is carbon

footprint a considered footprint is sand

and is the terminology invented and

propagated by world footprint Network

which is headed by dr. Mathis vector

noggin and it is been propagated by WWF

I got the idea of an illogical footprint

concept from my doctor Mathis Okanagan

and this input input I have taken for

the machine like Earth input is

psychological footprint that is the per

capita consumption of an individual

average Indian power average man that is

a collage occult footprint in short if I

am telling that it is such sum total of

land and energy energy it is again

converted to land plant what we are

using and notice again converted to

blank the amount of land required for

secreting the carbon dioxide so that

everything is expressed a collage achill

footprint is expressed in global

hectares and what is the output it is

again I will say that I have taken the

idea of that is UNDP United Nations

Development Program they have formulated

two things one is Human Development

Index which is characterized by health

education and income and in my language

health I have modified to wellness

education I have modified to skill

development and again income income the

same thing and then in the case of ihb

in inequality understood Human

Development Index formulated by you and

VP from 2010 onwards they are

considering the value of equity also

inequality adjusted Human Development

Index they have formulated and I have

made this ee or may value as inequality

adjusted human development / ecological

footprint that means we are getting in

quantified we are getting in terms of

numbers what is the environmental

efficiency of the word environmental

efficiency of this country that country

so that now human development wise very

high values of the countries may go down

what is their human development

achievements with respect to inequality

and district human development that is

again I am introducing this thing that

is turn value of course this name is put

under my husband husband slave Anthony

and I call him a fan a stone and I want

I put this value that says an SEC

improvised Ron value and he believes in

spinning that is making consumption or

expenditure with the with respect to

water but is in hand he doesn’t like our

expenditure or overshooting so I just

formulated this non value that is this

is the comparison between what is the

ecological footprint and what is the

mire capacity this ecological footprint

calculations as well as bio capacity

calculations are there with a worldwide

WWF site one footprint Network site also

so what is it Oh what is the comparison

between what what we have that is bio

capacity and what we are consuming and

if you are if you are consuming more

ecological footprint tone value is

negative if it is with respect to by a

capacity if you are consuming less

psychological footprint that means stone

value is positive and if it is balanced

so based on da that is a database from

UNDP and WWF I have calculated this HDI

HDI these are all the figures we have

taken from the a WWF that is your DP

site but he and CC where value I have

derived it is 2.5 10.65 but may value is

it that is H I H P by AFP it has again

come down because so much of inequality

is existing in this world which is

quantified that is May value it is going

down that is in equally good they

adjusted May values the crux of

everything about our achievement and non

value is negative that means

psychological overshoot is taking place

we are consuming what more than what we

have that is indication and at least

dawn value should be 0 it should be non

negative value that’s the favorable

condition and they said for the country

some calculations and see that in the

Canada in the case of Canada may value

is 1.2 while this is 1.3 that means

little bit of this more gap is there

with respect to inequality but in the

guise of countries like that is India

this is the environment left shake 6.09

Wiles may value has to reduce to four

point three five that means inequality

gap the gap between the haves and

have-nots is it’s more that is the

indication and the case of tone value in

some of the countries see them that sit

in the Canada it is positive that means

they are having much resources with

based on this I have made ten

commandments of sustainability such

thing in critical decisions have to be

anthropocentric because there are two

ethics that under percent rake as well

as a cassandra k–

anthropocentric man is the man is the

most important person based on him

everything needs to be managed and he is

of course the custodian of the earth but

in the case of eco-centric that

human beings will be just like any other

animal in this world that means I

believe in our center for environmental

efficiency or EE and CC theories are

formulated based on the anthropocentric

principle they not raise the nature’s

resources and instead produce

multiplying output in the form of

inventions peace passion and happiness

share both natural and man-made

resources so that resources or

facilities shall have more utility land

utility space utility etc because the

same piece of plant suppose it is used

on different times they are time period

different people are using land

utilities floor because more people

depends on the number of people who use

that suppose the log departments or

locked that is once a normal lock term

this thing this houses that means it’s

not land utilities less it should have

Maud land utility

similarly phase space utility common

apartments common ownership of plan

space utilities small because more

number of people are enjoying the

facilities given in the system give

prime importance to integrity of

ecosystems and award ecosystem

disturbance because all these power

lines and detergents and what all manual

activities are going on that is in the

ecosystems it all creates echo system

disturbance and it will kill with the

micro organisms in their core systems so

that ecosystem functioning is not done

properly so that there will be

productivity loss the performance loss

that is what is happening in Kerala I

must say that because it because of the

scattered development pattern

wherever we go wherever this thing on

the mountaintop world so we can see the

mobile tower we can see that electrical

line and we can see the man-made

activities there so ecosystem this list

of our ecosystem integrity is the most

important thing to have performance

curse for out for our own sake for man

for his for his own sake this kind of

ecosystem the servants should be avoided

to so that the indelible in the

ecosystems will function properly so

that there will be productivity and

there will be quality for the ecosystem

promote walking and pedaling for

mobility because working in better Lima

that is a cycling that is very important

for a city because it contribute to

health but it produces ecological

footprint health is a part of human

development while ecological that is

energy consumption is the part of a

collage achill footprint so both said

there will be effect in the case of

walking and pedaling and in great Ammar

use both use of public mass transport

again it reduces emissions because more

number of people are using for about

green spaces and open spaces inside the

city because more number of people will

be able to the enable human development

and creates high rates accommodations

with lane less ground coverage and more

space utility respect and reward

intellectual property as innovations

broster human development with the lower

ecological footprint because now the

population is increasing like anything

and if the anthropocentric principles

are right then we have to by protecting

all our ecosystems and everything in

fact we have to have a common that is

innovations how more number of people

can be accommodated in earth without

causing damage to the environment

compensate and ecological overshoot my

polluter pay this of the ten

commandments and these ten commandments

i have evolved from these two to

summarizing commands like improve the

environment efficiency and may value and

then imbrue carrying capacity and turn

value and these are the applications

level it has got applications everywhere

from the individual level to global

level from the ball country state region

city all these actions are to be done

from the government in the case Minda in

the

in the form of policies and projects

while at the bottom level action from

bottom it should be action from people

or ham it should be at the individual

family and community level what what we

can do what are all the tips small tips

reduce the energy bill that is use of

solar energy and wind energy that is a

non-renewable energy renewable energy

and setting up a fair earth condition is

set to 24 to 26 degrees which occurs in

the mustard city there in in Abu Dhabi

we can see that there the policy is say

no don’t put the a/c below 25 degree

because 25 degree is more than enough

why 16 degree and putting a set s and it

is going to the hall the heat is going

to the outside and outside people also

will be prompted to you say AC then what

will happen at the end of the day or end

of the year because that should be our

policy then avoid wastage electricity

wastage of electricity by using LED

lights and other means reducing fossil

fuel usage by walking pedaling and use

of mass transport reducing travel time

travel time is a waste of human

development because we are simply idling

in the treads vehicles so reduce the

travel time so our house location should

be in such a way that our travel time

should be reduced for all the families

then where dude is reducing water usage

that is rainwater harvesting can be done

rainwater harvesting that too can be

done first water care shall be collected

on the rooftop so that the pumping can

be avoided then the balance water can be

collected at the sum and again the

balance can be rare that is underground

recharge then food resources we should

take food resources from the nearby

which ecosystems because the transported

the food which is transported from them

that is faraway places it reduces the

food value which affects health at the

same deputy increases the ecological

footprint because of the pants PO

then locus of the house or apartment it

has got a square effect square effect

means it is that is it increases because

if if our house is located in a very

environmentally efficient location and

we thoughts at schools colleges and

hospitals and the railway stations and

things like that if it is nearby it is

known as the environment the efficient

location that means our human

development opportunities will be high

while at our College footprint is radios

that means square effect is there it is

known as alpha square effect because

accessibility is a very important factor

I have named it my thesis it has alpha

so alpha square effect because that

multiplying effect is therefore the

location of the house and all these

reducing reducing reducing things these

are all without compromising human

development because we feel we need it

we use it avoid wastage and so that all

emissions will be brought back either it

will be the input will be reduced or it

can be brought to the output so that it

will be functioning they are functioning

with the environmental high

environmental efficiency and I have made

presentation this is the presentation

which I made action from people and so

far I was making presentation in

different places with the action from

the government and I have made

presentation for attention Indian

engineering Congress 2011 Robert submits

London 2012 Carol eight engineers forum

Doha Qatar 2012 presentation at the IITs

Rotterdam Netherlands in 2015 and smart

cities in India conference 2016 at New

Delhi and Paton also I filed both India

and international and in didn’t patent

it is published and international patent

patent pending number I am waiting for

and my achievements are that is this

early one part I have explained my

achievements are developed by logic for

quantum quantifying that

maleficents of cities in a das platform

and developed a methodology for

performance ranking of cities based on

sustainability because in India if there

are so many cities based on

environmental efficiency and carrying

capacities we can quantify it see this

it is the first rank the city’s the

second rank the city’s the third rank I

have formulated this ranking for the

Asian cities index based on the database

of cements calm and let us host for

deriving this management system is from

I acknowledge it now that’s already I

told you that is UNDP world footprint

Network and WWF and special thanks to

third choice team and led by Rose me boo

then my family members

Antony kata Karen Maria and George Kutty

Karen who we are all through supporting

me helping me and Tanika together has

sitting away in Doha he was correcting

that’s doing anything part of it while

Maria and George we’re making the visual

part of it I am very thankful that that

choice team has given this opportunity

to explain this theories for the benefit

of the humanity so that this Ted is a

very famous even even thing that is it

will be thrown to the entire world

and I keep my fingers crossed so that it

will be brainstormed at higher levels to

bring this concept into a reality

okay thank you so much [Applause]
