The second component was to paint the pedestrian of Jadara, one of the Decapolis in North West of Jordan. This event is a continuation of a campaign of LHAP launched 7 years ago with the purpose of educating the public and lobby on the government to come up a national legislation to monitor the market of paints that contain lead. The following are photos of the event. - Greening Public Buidling: Community Model for Scarce Resources Adaptation and Replication 2015-2017. The two projects that was supported by UNDP and the International Coca Cola and USAID and FHI360 , implemented by LHAP and its local partners addressing key public sites was able over 20 months, the project life, to conclude many results at two levels energy and water that constitute critical challenging issues to Jordan. At the level of energy the project was able to install 53 kilo watt peak per hour electricity in the four sites (2 mosques, 2 churchs, 1 municipality buildings and two convention centers). The calculated and estimated electricity saving range from 100% to 50% based on the capacity of PVCs. Additional factors are contributing to reducing electricity bill in specific to the mosque in which 201.55 meter square of double windows replaced the single ones with an estimation to reduce energy loss by 40% according to literature. Furthermore, the 2346 LED bulbs that are fixed in sites add to the electricity saving with an estimation of energy loss according to literature equal 40%. At the water level, the project installed 276 water saving devices, estimated to harvest 276 cubic meter of water this winter supplied by pumps to elevate water for use and complete water collection system. The project impacts are measured at different levels: At the environmental level the project is reducing the emissions of CO2 by 78 tons/ year, the NOx by 52 kg/ year, SOx by 49 kg/year and 6 kg of particulates per year. In addition water is made available to overcome cuts and shortages mainly during summer season when the rain water is collected into cisterns and tankers to use in summer in addition into introducing water saving devices the economize in consumption and thus make water available for longer time. A the economic level: economic strains are reduced by the electricity and water bills, something clearly spilled by the people in the church and the mosque who face hard time to collect money to cover the incurring costs of electricity bill and water buying when they are in shortage. For instance, the mosque bill was tremendously reduced from 700 JD (1000 USD) in Ramadan to become 2 JD (3 USD) after connecting the PVCs on grid and installing both the double glaze and LED bulbs. Water in the tanks is staying longer as stated by the Imam after fixing the water saving devices. The one week water consumption time is nowadays enough for three weeks after the site saving technology renovation introduction. It is worth mentioning that mosques and churches committee are responsible for taking care of bills associated with their sites and therefore, the project came as a gift from God and relief for them. Moreover, the sites in which there are schools are getting more popular due to the actions considered by this project that ensure better environment for their kids such as the church that make the fathers and mothers choice where to send their kids is much easier. At the Social level: The community in which the four sites are located have highly appreciated the initiative and therefore many were driven by the impacts spoken about by the owners of the 8 sites to think seriously about installing in specific photo voltaic cells to reduce to zero the electricity bill that constitute stressful economic factor and due to the fact of gradual and continuous increase by the government. Tens of requests were received from individual people in churches, mosques; restaurants and firms after have been exposed to the sites environmental renovations and due to their participation in the hand over ceremonies on how to adopt such systems in their premises due to the strains caused by high electricity bills in specific. This means that the project goal of replicating and impacting the community at large is progressively getting achieved. The community is highly valuing the support given to their public premises and therefore more local support is gained by the committees in charge of these sites. At the Political level: Jordan is enjoying the progress occurring mainly in the area of energy saving and therefore is promoting at the community at large to use of PVCs. The collective reduction of emissions of CO2 is helping Jordan to comply with the international conventions namely: The Climate Change through the reduction of CO2 emissions and Minamata through the phase out of mercury through introducing LED bulbs (mercury free). The government has established an energy fund to support mosques and other public buildings to install PVCs to contribute into reducing the country fuel high bill. At the Health level, the project is by reducing air pollutants emissions and thus becoming green is reducing the respiratory diseases and at the same time provide adequate water which is detrimental to having good hygiene.
