Anaikuttam Dam. Anaikuttam Dam is a dam situated in Tamil Nadu's Virudhunagar district. The dam is built on the Arjuna River. Anaikuttam Dam finished its construction in 1989. This remarkable structure has been a lifeline for the region, providing irrigation, clean energy, and drinking water to the communities it serves

Capacity 
Anaikuttam Dam is a significant engineering feat, characterized by its earthen construction. The dam stretches an impressive 2,940 meters in length and stands at a height of 9.5 meters, forming a reservoir that harnesses the flow of the Arjuna River. The design and construction of the dam are a testament to meticulous planning and execution, aimed at effectively managing water resources for the benefit of the region's inhabitants.

The dam provides drinking water to the Virudhunagar district. According to a news article published in 2020, the dam had the capacity to give 2 million litres of water to Virudhunagar every day.

Challenges and Accountability 
While Anaikuttam Dam has brought numerous benefits, its journey has not been without challenges. In 2015, an investigation was launched against officials from the Public Works Department (PWD) due to alleged negligence in maintaining the dam. These accusations raised concerns about wastage of water and highlighted the need for responsible management and upkeep of vital infrastructure. Such incidents underscore the importance of effective governance and maintenance to ensure the long-term viability of such critical resources.

Arnould Carangeot. Arnould Carangeot (12 March 1742 – 16 December 1806) was a French naturalist and mineralogist who invented one of the first goniometers for measuring the angles of the faces of crystals. Through its use came about the first ideas in crystallography on the constancy of the dihedral angles and symmetry of crystals of specific chemicals.

As an assistant to Jean-Baptiste Romé de L'Isle he examined crystals to make clay models and invented the goniometer in 1780. This led to Romé de L'Isle establishing the law of constancy of interfacial angles, a slight advance over Steno's idea that the interfacial angles were constant for a given substance.

He also contributed to a work on the butterflies of Europe.

Nzambi Matee. Nzambi Matee born at the date September 19 1992, is a Kenyan trained mechanical engineer, environmentalist, hardware designer, inventor and serial entrepreneur. She is well known for her innovative and creative ways of converting waste into sustainable materials. She pioneered the sustainable efforts by recycling plastic to make bricks that can be even stronger than a concrete. Her sustainable efforts have also been hailed as one of the successful strategies to curb the plastic pollution in Kenya. She founded Gjenge Makers, which is based in Nairobi, Kenya.

Career 
She pursued her interest in physics and material engineering. She also worked as an engineer in the oil industry of Kenya.

In 2017, she decided to quit her job as a data analyst in order to focus on sustainability and waste management. She eventually made arrangements to set up a small laboratory in her mother’s backyard. She began creating and testing pavers, and she waited for about a year in order to develop the right ratios for her paving bricks. Furthermore, she developed the first brick from a plastic waste in 2018 and a year later in 2019 she made her own self-made machine in order to convert plastic waste to bricks in a large scale.

She also confronted few challenges as her neighbors complained about the noisy machine which she utilized for her efforts. Matee also stopped associating with her friends for a year, and it was a brief stop in her social life while she was determined to carry her mission. She won a scholarship to attend a social entrepreneurship training programme in the United States of America. During her short tour to the USA, she used the material labs in the University of Colorado Boulder to test and refine the ratios of sand to plastic.

She founded the startup company Gjenge Makers in order to recycle plastic waste into bricks. She used her own experience of design thinking when establishing the Gjenge Makers foundation. She was heavily inspired to set up Gjenge Makers after witnessing the plastic bags being untidily scattered along the streets of Nairobi. She designed her own machines at the Gjenge Makers factory and her factory has recycled around 20 tonnes of waste plastics as of 2021.

She was recognised at the United Nations Environment Programme with the prestigious honour Young Champion of the Earth 2020 Africa winner.

Orca (carbon capture plant). The Orca carbon capture plant is a facility that uses direct air capture to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere (The name, "Orca" comes from the Icelandic word, "orka" which means "energy". It was constructed by Climeworks and is joint work with Carbfix, an academic-industrial partnership that has developed a novel approach to capture . The plant uses dozens of large fans to pull in air and pass it through a filter. The filter is then released of the  it contains through heat. The  extracted is later mixed with water and pushed into the ground, using a technology from Carbfix.

The plant started sequestering carbon dioxide in 2021. It is said to have cost between $10–15 million to build. It is located in Iceland and is the largest facility of its kind on earth. It is located about 50 kilometers outside Reykjavík next to the Hellisheiði Power Station, which is run by Reykjavík Energy.  It was inaugurated on 8 September 2021 in presence of Katrín Jakobsdóttir, the Prime Minister of Iceland.

Carbon offsetting potential 
Climeworks claims that the plant can capture 4000 tons of  per year. This equates roughly to the emissions from about 870 cars. It counts Microsoft founder Bill Gates and the reinsurance company Swiss Re as current customers.

The thousands of tons of carbon dioxide being removed is owed to the nearly 20 direct air capture plants currently functioning in the world. As the world's climate climbs towards 2 degrees Celsius, more technology is needed desperately to sustain our climate, preventing it from reaching severe temperatures.

Tega Brain. Tega Brain is an Australian-born digital artist and environmental engineer who is also an assistant professor of Integrated Digital Media at New York University (NYU). Brain is known for her eccentric and often purposefully dysfunctional information systems that examine the intersection between digital networks and natural phenomena. Her art works have been discussed widely in press outlets such as The New York Times, The Atlantic, Artforum, NPR and The Guardian. Brain's works have been exhibited in multiple museums such as the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin. In 2021, Brain co-authored the textbook Code as Creative Medium which serves as a guide for educators and computer scientists about teaching and learning computational art and design.

Education 
Brain received a Bachelor of Environmental Engineering and a Bachelor of Arts at University of New South Wales in 2006. She then completed a Masters of Art at the Queensland University of Technology in 2012.

Notable works 
In 2015, in response to the decision by John Hancock Insurance to offer discounts if members shared their personal fitness data as logged by a Fitbit, Brain, alongside engineer Surya Mattu, created the website Unfit-Bits. The website offers solutions to spoof fitness data, to "produce data to qualify [users] for incentives from employers or insurers, even if they can't afford a high exercise lifestyle". This work was part of the exhibition, "24/7: A Wake Up Call for Our Non-Stop World" in 2019.

In 2020 she created the work, "New York Apartment", with collaborator Sam Lavigne. This work aggregates all New York City real-estate listings and presents them as a fictional massive apartment. Again in 2020, the pair collaborated on a website titled "Get Well Soon!", which archives over 20,000 comments from GoFundMe campaigns and lists them in alphabetical order. The New York Times described the piece as an "archive of well-wishes and fears, prayers and pleadings, represent a slice of the grief, love, medical costs and mutual aid that define illness in this country."

French aviso Quartier-Maître Anquetil. Quartier-Maître Anquetil (F786) is a  in the French Navy. She was transferred to the Turkish Navy as TCG Bandırma (F-502).

Design 

Armed by a crew of 90 sailors, these vessels have the reputation of being among the most difficult in bad weather. Their high windage makes them particularly sensitive to pitch and roll as soon as the sea is formed.

Their armament, consequent for a vessel of this tonnage, allows them to manage a large spectrum of missions. During the Cold War, they were primarily used to patrol the continental shelf of the Atlantic Ocean in search of Soviet Navy submarines. Due to the poor performance of the hull sonar, as soon as an echo appeared, the reinforcement of an ASM frigate was necessary to chase it using its towed variable depth sonar.

Their role as patrollers now consists mainly of patrols and assistance missions, as well as participation in UN missions (blockades, flag checks) or similar marine policing tasks (fight against drugs, extraction of nationals, fisheries control, etc.). The mer-mer 38 or mer-mer 40 missiles have been landed, but they carry several machine guns and machine guns, more suited to their new missions.

Its construction cost was estimated at 270,000,000 French francs.

Construction and career

Service in the French Navy 
Quartier-Maître Anquetil was laid down on 1 August 1975 at Arsenal de Lorient, Lorient, Launched on 7 August 1976, and commissioned on 4 February 1978.

Service in the Turkish Naval Forces 
The ship was purchased from France in November 2000 and commissioned on 25 July 2002 as TCG Bandırma (F-502) after salvage work was carried out at DCN.
