Environmental Issues and Business Intelligence Reporting

Environmental Issues

Executive Summary
This report talks about the Business intelligence tools. The purpose of this report is
to provide on-hands experiences on utilizing the SAP Analytics tools for the students,
so that they can explore, extract and analyse the provided enterprise data. The topic
to be discussed is environmental issues. The intension of this project is to generate
innovative analytics solutions, with the application of SAP Business Object/Predictive
Analytics to design a visualization solution and a predictive model for environment
such as climate change, carbon footprint, energy consumption, greenhouse gas
emission, pollution dashboard, and so on. A real-world dataset is used for illustrating
the used approach. The usage of dashboard to support the Earth’s environmental
issues is presented. A discussion on descriptive analysis and Prescriptive analysis is
discussed with a SAP analysis. A design model application is developed. Suggestion
to resolve environmental issues are presented depending on a dashboard analysis.
Finally, justification for the Business intelligence Reporting solution is provided.

1. Background of Environmental Issues
The environmental issues are discussed to see the level of environmental
harm to the earth which results in global warming. CO2 emission is considered as the
primary reason to face global warming. Thus, it is very important to control global
warming to save our planet Earth.
Some of the gases that are released into the atmosphere includes, carbon
dioxide is released when the fossil fuels are burnt along with other greenhouse
gases are also released. The gases released form the vehicles also contribute to air
pollution and all these emissions increases climate change, ozone layer depletion
and results in global warming. The environment at present is highly vulnerable to
these emissions, as it leads to calamities and serious threat to human life of earth.
The case of Turkey is considered as an example where there is high need to
decrease the greenhouse gas emissions for controlling the climate changes (Yüksel
& Sandalci, 2011)
Hence, it is important to find solutions to stop these greenhouse gases. This
research demands identification of potential environmental issues, which impacts on
electricity supply. This report’s investigation uses the analytic tools to provide best
solution to the identified environmental issues, including on energy consumption
aspects.
2. Used Business Intelligence Reporting Solution
This section discusses about the Business Intelligence reporting
solution/dashboards that are used to develop for environmental dataset. The two
types of analytics are:
