Palm Islands are three artificial islands, Palm Jumeirah, Deira Island and Palm Jebel Ali, on the coast of Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Creation of the islands started in 2001. As of November 2011, only Palm Jumeirah has been completed. This island takes the form of a palm tree, topped by a crescent.

 

After completion, Palm Jebel Ali will take a similar shape. Like Palm Jumeirah, each island will be host to a large number of residential, leisure and entertainment centers and will add a total of 520 kilometers of non-public beaches to the city of Dubai. wikipedia

 

Palm Jumeirah[edit]

Main article: Palm Jumeirah

 

The Palm Jumeirah seen from the International Space Station.

The Palm Jumeirah (Coordinates: 25°06′28″N 55°08′15″E) consists of a tree trunk, a crown with 16 fronds, and a surrounding crescent island that forms an 11 kilometer-long breakwater. The island itself is five kilometers by five kilometers. It adds 78 kilometers to the Dubai coastline.

 

Residents began moving into Palm Jumeirah properties at the end of 2006, five years after land reclamation began.

 

Palm Jumeirah Monorail opened in 2009; it is connected to station 9 of the Dubai Tram (Palm Jumeirah Station).

 

Palm Jumeirah hosts the Atlantis hotel resort and it was opened in 2010.[1]

 

Palm Jebel Ali[edit]

Main article: Palm Jebel Ali

 

Palm Jebel Ali

The Palm Jebel Ali began construction in October 2000 and it was supposed to be completed by October mid-2008 but has been on hold since. Palm Jebel Ali was going to be built much larger than Palm Jumeirah, but has not yet been completed.[2][3]

 

Environmental concerns[edit]

The construction of the Dubai Palm Islands has had a significant impact on the surrounding environment, resulting in changes to area wildlife, coastal erosion, alongshore sediment transport and wave patterns. Sediment stirred up by construction has suffocated and injured local marine fauna and reduced the amount of sunlight which filters down to seashore vegetation. Variations in alongshore sediment transport have resulted in changes in erosion patterns along the UAE coast, which has also been exacerbated by altered wave patterns as the waters of the Persian Gulf attempt to move around the new obstruction of the islands. [4][5]

 

Dubai's megaprojects have become a favourite cause of environmentalists. Greenpeace has criticized the Palm Islands for lack of sustainability, and Mongabay.com, a site dedicated to rain forest conservation, has attacked Dubai's artificial islands aggressively, stating that:

 

Significant changes in the maritime environment [of Dubai] are leaving a visual scar [... ] As a result of the dredging and redepositing of sand for the construction of the islands, the typically crystalline waters of the Persian Gulf at Dubai have become severely clouded with silt. Construction activity is damaging the marine habitat, burying coral reefs, oyster beds and subterranean fields of sea grass, threatening local marine species as well as other species dependent on them for food. Oyster beds have been covered in as much as two inches of sediment, while above the water, beaches are eroding with the disruption of natural currents. wikipedia

South America - From Granary to Megaprojects for the World

 

BELÉM, Brazil (IPS) – South America has gone from the world’s granary to the site of innumerable international infrastructure, energy and mining megaprojects. It is now facing a new dilemma: bolstering the economy with the promise of reducing inequality, in exchange for social and environmental costs that are taking their toll.

BREAKFAST DISCUSSION SESSIONS

BUILD: DELIVERING MEGAPROJECTS EFFICIENTLY, ON TIME AND ON BUDGET

Over the past 20 years, the infrastructure sector has consistently experienced low productivity improvements, with megaprojects notorious for delays and budget overruns. Why do things go wrong and what can policy makers, project owners, and contractors do to enhance productivity and achieve better outcomes? What are the best ways to enable and deliver megaprojects more efficiently, at the system and project level?

 

Discussion Leaders:

Luis Castilla, Chief Executive Officer, ACCIONA Infrastructure, Water and Services

Alan Krause, Chairman and CEO, MWH Global

John Peabody, Deputy Commanding General for Civil and Emergency Operations, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
