Green GNP. GNP does not take into consideration the cost in terms of (i) environmental pollution, and (ii) depletion of natural resources caused by production of output. Mere increase in GNP will not reflect improvement in quality of life if it increases environmental pollution or reduces available resources for future generations. That is why concept of Green GNP has been introduced while measuring economic welfare.
Green GNP is defined as "GNP which is indicator of a sustainable use of natural environment and equitable distribution of benefits of development." This concept denotes the following characteristics (i) Sustainable economic development, i.e., development which should not cause environmental degradation (pollution) and depletion of natural resources (ii) Equitable distribution of benefits of its of development. (iii) Promotes economic welfare for a long period of time.
Expressed in the form of an equation:
Green GNP = GNP - Net fall in stock of national capital

The Champaran episode is considered to be the beginning of the Indian struggle for independence because, for the first time, farmers and peasants rose against the Britishers. The English landlords had owned most of the arable land in Champaran. The Indian tenants worked on the land. The chief commercial crop was indigo. The English planters compelled all sharecroppers to plant 15% of their holdings with indigo. They had to surrender the entire indigo harvest as rent to the landlords. Later, it was found that the Germany had already developed synthetic indigo. The British Landlords realised that the plantation of natural indigo was no more a profitable business for English landlords. So, they decided to free the Indian sharecroppers from the 15% contract. They were to pay compensation for this freedom. The peasants saw through the trick and fraud of the landlords. Therefore, they wanted their money back. The peasants had always been oppressed by their British landlords, but they lacked the courage to revolt. Now, under the leadership of Gandhiji, they became aware of their rights. Thousands of peasants demonstrated courageously. Soon, a commission of enquiry was set up and its findings forced the landlords to agree to refund the money to the peasants. The surrender of landlords declared the victory of the peasants and the victory of the Civil Disobedience in India. 

Man pollutes the earth by causing death and destruction and by spreading hatred and enmity through wars. The war also causes irreparable damage to the earth's environment by polluting it with dust, debris and smoke caused by war weapons.

एक मैदान की लम्बाई 40 मी तथा चौड़ाई 15 मी है। यदि इस मैदान पर 50 मिमी वर्षा हुई हो, तो ज्ञात कीजिए कि मैदान पर कुल कितने लीटर पानी गिरा, यदि 1 घन मी = 1000 लीटर।
हल:
मैदान की लम्बाई = 40 मी
मैदान की चौड़ाई = 15 मी
वर्षा के पानी की ऊँचाई = 50 मिमी = 0.05 मी
मैदान में कुल पानी गिरा = 40 x 15 x 0.05 = 30 घन मी = 30 x 1000 = 30000 ली।

A rational number, in Mathematics, can be defined as any number which can be represented in the form of p/q where q ≠ 0. Also, we can say that any fraction fits under the category of rational numbers, where the denominator and numerator are integers and the denominator is not equal to zero. When the rational number (i.e., fraction) is divided, the result will be in decimal form, which may be either terminating decimal or the repeating decimal.

The best time to water flowers is in the morning between the hours of 6-10 a.m. The cooler weather reduces evaporation and helps the water stay where you need it – with the plant.

The cramps occur when muscle cells respire anaerobically. The partial breakdown of glucose produces lactic acid. The accumulation of lactic acid causes muscle cramps.

 An integer is a number with no fractional part (no decimals).
Includes:
• the counting numbers {1, 2, 3, ...},
• zero {0},
• and the negative of the counting numbers {-1, -2, -3, ...}

We can write them all down like this: {..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...}

Examples of integers: -16, -3, 0, 1, 198

There are a variety of subconcepts which are related to answering questions based on boat and streams. Given below are the four terms which are important for a candidate to know to understand the concept of streams.

• Stream – The moving water in a river is called stream. 
• Upstream – If the boat is flowing in the opposite direction to the stream, it is called upstream. In this case, the net speed of the boat is called the upstream speed
• Downstream – If the boat is flowing along the direction of the stream, it is called downstream. In this case, the net speed of the boat is called downstream speed
• Still Water – Under this circumstance the water is considered to be stationary and the speed of the water is zero

The terms upstream and downstream oil and gas production refer to an oil or gas company's location in the supply chain. Upstream oil and gas production is conducted by companies who identify, extract, or produce raw materials. Downstream oil and gas production companies are closer to the end user or consumer.

When a boat travels in the same direction as the current, we say that it is traveling downstream. Thus if b is the speed of the boat in still water, and c is the speed of the current, then its total speed is. Downstream speed = b + c. When a boat travels against the current, it travels upstream.

Coagulation is a process of aggregating together the colloidal particles so as to change them into large sized particles which ultimately settle as a precipitate. It can also be called as precipitation.

Coagulation is generally brought about by the addition of electrolyte.

When an electrolyte is added to the colloidal solution, the particles of the sol take up the ion which is oppositely charged and thus get neutralised.

Following are the three methods by which coagulation of lyophobic sols can be carried out.

(i) Electrophoresis: In this process, the colloidal particles move towards oppositely charged electrodes and get discharged resulting in coagulation.

(ii) Mixing of two oppositely charged sols: When equal proportions of oppositely charged sols are mixed, they neutralise each other resulting in coagulation.

(iii) Dialysis: By this method, electrolytes present in sol are removed completely and colloid becomes unstably resulting in coagulation.

The elders of the village were present in the classroom to attend the last French lesson by Mr. Hamel. They not only paid their respects and tribute to Mr. Hamel but also showed their interest towards their own language which was, perhaps, being taught for the last time in the village.

The British landed on the Indian Subcontinent at the port of Surat on  August 24, 1608 AD for the purpose of trade, but after 7 years British got royal order (i.e. Farman) to establish a factory at Surat under the leadership of Sir Thomas Roe (Ambassador of James I). Following this, the East India Company also got similar permission from the Vijaynagara Empire to set up their second factory at Massulipatnam.

Some of the major features of a democracy are:

• The final decision making power rests with those elected by the people.
• It must be based on a free and fair election.
• Each adult citizen must have one vote and each vote must have one value.
• It should rule within limits set by constitutional law and citizens’ rights.

According to American political scientist Larry Diamond, democracy consists of four key elements: a political system for choosing and replacing the government through free and fair elections; the active participation of the people, as citizens, in politics and civic life; protection of the human rights of all citizens; ... A good democracy is defined as an institutional structure that understands the liberty and equality of citizens through the correct functioning of the government and its method. Also, it is an regime that should completely satisfy the citizens with its result.

The maximum displacement of a vibrating object from its Central position is called the amplitude of vibration. The amplitude actually tell us how far the vibrating object is displaced from its central position.
