  • Beyond technical details : the stalled Kwabenya engineered sanitary landfill project in Accra, Ghana

  • The development of a modern, sustainable system of waste management in developing countries is frequently delayed by causes that cannot be directly attributed to technical or economic reasons. One such project is the Kwabenya Engineered Sanitary
  • Landfill Project which was conceived in 1991. The paper examines why the project was not actualized though the technical details and financial component were duly secured. Using mainly a qualitative research method, the study revealed that the authority’s
  • poor governance practices spelt the doom of the project. The paper maintains that successful implementation of projects like a landfill demands the collective participation and acceptability of all stakeholders.

  • Analysis of landscapes designed for shared residential projects created during the period of post-war France (1945–1975). The three cases studies presented—La Butte Rouge, La Maurelette and Les Chatillons—are part of a larger examination of more
  • than 200 projects realised during this time. The methods include cartographic and textual analyses, on-site verifications, and archival studies. These projects represent a little-known stratum within landscape research. By revealing the landscape
  • designs of these projects, and how they were formational in the careers of significant French designers, it is hoped that a more nuanced revitalisation will be considered.

  • Will the southern African west coast fog be affected by future climate change? Results of an initial fog projection using a regional climate model
  • The AA. present an initial study to project the long-term development of fog occurrence along the southern African west coast. For this purpose, they implemented a basic fog diagnostic scheme based on liquid water content into the regional climate
  • model REMO. Regarding the long-term development of fog, two 20-year time slice simulations for a control (1981 to 2000) and a future (2081 to 2100) period following the A1B emission scenario were conducted. The model generally projects a slight increase

  • Historical and projected climate trends along the Appalachian Trail, USA, and the implications for trail usage
  • Observed historical (1895-2008) and projected future (to 2099) seasonal temperature and precipitation trends were examined along the Appalachian Trail (AT), a 3500 km continuous hiking trail in the eastern United States. The AT has generally warmed
  • increased more in the northern than southern AT. Temperature and precipitation are projected to increase for all regions during all seasons in the future. Implications of these changes are discussed with respect to hiker experience and trail management.

  • mask the political economy of environmental injustice and uneven urban development. This argument is fleshed out through a case study of the Adyar Poonga river restoration project in Chennai, India. The case study highlights two key dimensions of what

  • asymmetries that characterize the civic sphere in urban India. As environmental best practice is being actively formulated and replicated through projects like the Adyar Poonga, it becomes ever more urgent, to interrogate the mechanisms of political inclusions
