These few pictures are from a photo assignment where we had to meet someone on the street who was selling something and take photos that showed them in their environment. I happened to find some men selling luggage, though they were making tea at the time.

The shortest project of the term, based as a site-specific environment piece.
This was a project that focused purely on photography.

Philadelphia
Development in Philly is out of control, worsening conditions for working class people & the environment. Hundreds of community activists took to the streets to set the tone for Philly's 2023 election: anyone running for mayor or city council better have policy solutions for ensuring long-term, working class residents have a place in this city and that Philly is truly tackling and prepared for the climate crisis.
The march was organized by community groups fighting for land justice across our city, including Philly Thrive, Sunrise Movement, VietLead, Save UCTownhomes, Save the Meadows, Cobbs Creek EJ, and more!
Op 5 oktober organiseerde Built Environment een bedrijvendag: een matchmakingsdag. Studenten en bedrijven kunnen met elkaar in contact komen voor stages, afstudeeropdrachten en ter oriëntatie op de arbeidsmarkt. Welke banen zijn er straks?

One Point Office Supplies recently announced a merger with Corporate Environments, a Bethlehem, PA company. The merger will enable One Point to offer our clients the Herman Miller line, the office furniture industryʹs most recognized brand and respected manufacturer.
During our Environment Unit we tested the water tolerance of 4 different types of plant seeds - barley, radish, corn and pea.
We planted 3 seeds of each plant into 4 containers. Everything was kept the same except we add different amounts of water to each container. One container had no water, and contained dry soil, one container we added moist soil but no water. We added 40mls of water to one container and 80mls of water to the last container. We also had one class container labeled swamp - it had 120ml of water added to it. All containers were sealed in zip-lock bags.
UNEP has provided remote and real-time advice to the Government of Nepal, international agencies, and the UN system on dealing with the environmental issues linked to the the earthquake. UNEP also actively participated in a Post Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA) completed in June 2015.
In order to ensure that environmental issues are addressed during the reconstruction process, UNEP is working closely with the World Wildlife Fund for Nature on a rapid environmental assessment to inform the recovery process. In addition, UNEP has also facilitated the establishment of a coalition between WWF, International Union for Conservation of Nature and the Kathmandu-based International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD), with the objectives of promoting good environmental management principles and promoting healthy ecosystems in the reconstruction progress.

This is my favorite study place on the East Coast. Its the Andlinger Center and Chancellor Green Rotunda at Princeton University. A bit more inspiring than my basement, Starbucks or my church office...

Historic Environment Record for H BUILDING, Malvern, UK
The building, having military purposes and designated locally as H building, sits on a former Government Research site in Malvern, Worcestershire at Grid Ref SO 786 447. This site was the home of the Telecommunications Research Establishment (TRE) from 1946. It has been owned by QinetiQ since 2001 and is in the process (October 2017 to February 2018) of being sold for redevelopment.
This unique building has at its heart a ‘Rotor’ bunker with attached buildings to house radar screens and operators as well as plant such as emergency generators. Twenty nine Rotor operational underground bunkers were built in great urgency around Britain to modernise the national air defence network, following the Soviet nuclear test in 1949. Two factors make H building’s construction and purpose unique; this prototype is the only Rotor bunker built above ground and it was the home to National Air Defence government research for 30 years.This example of a ROTOR bunker is unique instead of being buried, it was built above ground to save time and expense, as it was not required to be below ground for its research purpose.
H Building was the prototype version of the Rotor project R4 Sector Operations Centre air defence bunkers. Construction began in August 1952 with great urgency - work went on 24 hours a day under arc lights. The main bunker is constructed from cross bonded engineering bricks to
form walls more than 2 feet thick in a rectangle approximately 65ft x 50ft. The two internal floors are suspended from the ceiling. The original surrounding buildings comprise, two radar control and operator rooms, offices and machine plant.
The building was in generally good order and complete. The internal layout of the bunker remains as originally designed. The internal surfaces and services have been maintained and modernised over the 55 years since its construction (Figure 3). The first floor has been closed over.
There are some later external building additions around the periphery to provide additional accommodation.
In parts of the building the suspended floor remains, with 1950s vintage fittings beneath such as patch panels and ventilation ducts.
The building has been empty since the Defence Science & Technology Laboratories [Dstl] moved out in October 2008
As lead for radar research, RRE was responsible for the design of both the replacement radars for the Chain Home radars and the command and control systems for UK National Air Defence.
Project Rotor was based around the Type 80 radar and Type 13 height finder. The first prototype type 80 was built at Malvern in 1953 code named Green Garlic. Live radar feeds against aircraft sorties, were fed into the building to carry out trials of new methods plotting and reporting air activity
A major upgrade of the UK radar network was planned in the late 1950s – Project ‘Linesman’ (military) / ‘Mediator’ (civil) – based around Type 84 / 85 primary radars and the HF200 height finder. A prototype type 85 radar (Blue Yeoman) was built adjacent to H Building in 1959. live radar returns were piped into H Building.
Subsequently a scheme to combine the military and civil radar networks was proposed. The building supported the research for the fully computerised air defence scheme known as Linesman, developed in the 1960s, and a more integrated and flexible system (United Kingdom Air Defence Ground Environment or UKADGE) in the 1970s.
The building was then used for various research purposes until the government relinquished the main site to QinetiQ in 2001. Government scientists continued to use the building until 2008. Throughout its life access was strictly controlled by a dedicated pass sytem.
Notable civil spin-offs from the research in this building include the invention of touch screens and the whole UK Civil Air Traffic Control system which set the standard for Europe.
Chronology
1952 - Construction work is begun. The layout of the bunker area duplicates the underground version built at RAF Bawburgh.
1953 - Construction work is largely completed.
1954 - The building is equipped and ready for experiments.
1956-1958 - Addition of 2nd storey to offices
1957-1960 - Experiments of automatic tracking, novel plot projection systems and data management and communications systems tested.
1960-1970 - Project Linesman mediator experiments carried out including a novel display technique known as a Touch screen ( A World First)
TOUCHSCREEN
A team led by Eric Johnson in H building at Malvern. RRE Tech Note 721 states: This device, the Touch Sensitive Electronic Data Display, or more shortly the ‘Touch Display’, appears to have the potential to provide a very efficient coupling between man and machine. (E A Johnson 1966). See also patent GB 1172222.
Information From Hugh Williams/mraths
1980-1990 - During this period experiments are moved to another building and H building is underused.
1990-1993 - The building was re-purposed and the bunker (room H57) had the first floor closed over to add extra floor area.
2008- The bunker was used until late 2008 for classified research / Joint intelligence centre
2019 - Visual Recording of the buildings interior by MRATHS. Be means of a LIDAR scan and photographs being taken. The exterior was mapped with a drone to allow a 3D Image of the building to be created via Photogrammetry. This was created in Autodesk Photo Recap.
2020 - Building demolished as part of the redevelopment of the site.

Feb. 26, 2016 marked the final day of our Environmental Film Festival in Paramaribo. The Paramaribo Zoo brought a baby howler monkey to our 10:30 a.m. screening. And Environmental Policy Advisor to the President of Suriname Dr. Haydi Berrenstein and Ambassador Nolan spoke at the evening screening.
