Poor ventilation and polluting cooking fuels in low-income homes cause high exposure, yet relevant global studies are limited. We assessed exposure to in-kitchen particulate matter (PM2.5 PM10) employing similar instrumentation 60 across 12 cities: Dhaka (Bangladesh); Chennai (India); Nanjing (China); Medellín (Colombia); São Paulo (Brazil); Cairo (Egypt); Sulaymaniyah (Iraq); Addis Ababa (Ethiopia); Akure (Nigeria); Blantyre (Malawi); Dar-es-Salaam (Tanzania) Nairobi (Kenya). Exposure...
In-kitchen air pollution is a leading environmental issue, attributable to extensive cooking, poor ventilation and the use of polluting fuels. We carried out week-long monitoring CO2, temperature relative humidity (RH) in five low-income residential kitchens 12 global cities (Dhaka, Chennai, Nanjing, Medellín, São Paulo, Cairo, Sulaymaniyah, Addis Ababa, Nairobi, Blantyre, Akure Dar-es-Salaam). During average in-kitchen CO2 concentrations were 22.2% higher than daily indoor average. Also,...
We state Ancestral Human-Water Feedbacks (AHWF) into derived regional models of anthropogenic effects and interactions with local communities. On the one hand, we revisit alternative AHWF from Ailton Krenak’s ancestral future perspectives, quoted for value history in global hydrological paradigms (Beven et al, 2025) even enhanced heritage living droughts (i.e. Pereira 2025). other adapt scales both non-formal cosmogony (e.g. Apgar 2009) externalist perspectives on metacognition...
Synergies are required to ensure coordination between UN agencies (on norms and indicators), Member States coherence of policy instruments) consumers perceptions safety affordability services) advance the achievement Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target 6.3 which focusses on reuse wastewater. In this paper we employ theoretical insights derived from an agent-based modelling approach undertake a critical examination recent UN-WATER directive SDG advocate for improved understanding...
Droughts present significant challenges to global food security, particularly impacting small farms – a vital source of the world's production, vulnerable drought. Identifying farms' vulnerability and resilience drought is essential avoid its adverse socioeconomic impacts. This paper presents results from survey experts on indicators for small-scale farms. An online questionnaire was sent asking them rate list 36 in terms five metrics: relevancy, accessibility, objectivity, understanding,...
Foi avaliado o impacto da poluição do ar nas internações por doenças respiratórias e cardiovasculares em residentes Município de Cuba-tão, São Paulo, Brasil. Utilizaram-se modelos séries temporais, com aditivos generalizados, regressão Poisson, testando como variáveis independentes as concentrações diárias material particulado (PM10); dióxido enxofre (SO2) ozônio (O3). Como controle a temperatura, umidade, dias semana feriados. Para cada incremento 10µg/m³ PM10, encontrou-se um excesso 4,25%...
Objectives: We assessed sociodemographic and health care factors of mothers newborns during a 2015-2016 outbreak microcephaly in Recife, Brazil, we analyzed the spatial distribution incidence risk with relation to socio-environmental indicators. Methods: collected data from August 2015 through May 2016 Brazil’s Live Birth Information System Bulletin Microcephaly Notification, geocoded by maternal residence. constructed thematic maps districts, according vector identified aggregates using...
Infant cereals, one of the first solid foods introduced to infants, have been reported pose risks human health because they contain toxic elements and an excess essential elements. The objective this study was assess cancer non-cancer risk exposure in infant cereal Brazil. In our analyses, we included data from 18 samples cereals made different raw materials estimated incremental lifetime hazard quotients (HQs) for their consumption. Rice is particularly concerning it immensely popular...
Abstract. This paper describes the process of creating a global survey experts to evaluate drought resilience indicators. The lessons learned include five main points: (1) heterogeneity in conceptual background should be minimized before construction survey; (2) large numbers indicators decrease engagement respondents through survey, and ways apportion whilst maintaining reliability considered; (3) it is necessary design balance response rate accuracy; (4) questions have clear statements...
