Biomimic is one of the applied sciences that works to solve human problems by studying natural designs, systems and processes, by delving into nature and learning from it how to respond to environmental changes and problems from which we can learn how to solve the problems we face today (such as energy depletion, human resources and global warming..) It was necessary to find quick and effective solutions to the problem of that consumption while at the same time obtaining the requirements of thermal comfort for users, new architectural trends (biomimic) seeking to reach an internal environment that is thermally comfortable for humans while committing to the rationalization of energy consumption and maintain The desert environment is considered the suitable environment for study where the desert environment is characterized by the presence of many living organisms that have the ability to adapt to the environment and deal with it internally and externally, it has a unique strategy in adapting and responding to the variables of the hot climate, especially in It is about avoiding thermal acquisition from the outside and its ability to lose heat, raise its internal temperature and protect its bodies with good insulation.

Industrial development is supposed the main engine for economic growth, social development. Nevertheless, manufacturing sectors are directly and indirectly responsible for a large share of overall environmental pressures thus, it was a very important issue to improve the balance between environment, social and economic requirements to ensure sustainability, especially to establish a good sustainable industrial area that could improve balancing between sustainability pillars. Thus, this paper review environmental pressures (directly or indirectly) that could generate from the industrial sector in both developed and developing countries.

This study aimed to use GIS to assess the current status of public primary schools located in the fifth district through the applications and methods of analysis of the Geographic Information System Program (ArcGIS 10.7.1), which is the method of analysis using Nearest Neighbor analysis, spatial analysis and distributive justice. The study found that the state primary schools located in the fifth district have a pattern of distribution far apart in distances, as well as there is a very large overlap in the scope of influence for all schools, which indicates randomness in the choice of their places as well as indicates that there are areas within the scope of service more than one school. The study recommended that the study move away from spontaneity in the selection of school sites and follow the foundations and planning criteria, and rely on the environmental perspective to help decision makers to identify the best areas in the selection of school locations to achieve the sustainable development goals.
