Abstract

The objective of this study is to use the Guideline UI GreenMetric World University Rankings 2023 guide, with the purpose of evaluating the sustainability performance of the Faculty of Sciences of Engineering and Technology (FCITEC) Valle de Las Palmas Academic Unit of the Autonomous University of Baja California (UABC). According to the available documentary information from years 2020 to 2023 of the annual activity reports of the faculty’s Dean, in addition to statistical data and Study Plan documents of the Educational Programs offered at FCITEC, as well as activity reports of environmental management, all published on the institutional website, which are used to evaluate according to the six categories of the UI GreenMetric 2023; with the intention of generating a baseline to help propose actions and strategies for continuous improvement for the benefit of the university community, as well as the local environment and community. With the self-assessment, the findings of compliance with the categories were between 27% and 75%, where the highest global average corresponds to waste management and the lowest for transportation. Continuous work and improvement is necessary to achieve the sustainable performance of FCITEC, so that it can comply with the UI GreenMetric standards, in a way in which the academic unit can reduce negative environmental impacts in its surroundings.

Abstract

The rising population, changing climate patterns and land use changes have emerged to be a serious consequence for the freshwater resources across the globe. Apart from water quantity, the water quality also holds a significant importance for the human health and the overall ecosystem. Due to the high population growth, massive migrations, and greater anthropogenic activities, the urban centers of the developing and underdeveloped countries are highly susceptible to water quality deterioration and waterborne diseases. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the water quality of domestic water supply in the three (03) major and highly populated districts of Karachi city of Pakistan including District Central, South, and East, receiving water from Keenjhar Lake via COD treatment plant. The physical test results showed higher turbidity levels (6.33 NTU) in Dhoraji (District East), 5.9 NTU in Boat Basin (District South), and 7.58 NTU in COD influent. Chemically, all samples showed satisfactory results as per the WHO guidelines. However, the biological water quality analysis showed significant presence of bacterial content (E-Coli and Total Coliform) in all collected samples. Conclusively, the treatment efficiency of COD treatment plant was found to be satisfactory and the contamination was mainly found due to the sewage and fecal mixing, presence of mud and silt in conduits, and leakage of sewage from the waste water pipes into the domestic water supply. The presence of harmful biological contaminants found in water is alarming, as it may consequentially lead to Diarrhea, vomiting, Typhoid, Cholera, and Jaundice. Thus, the research outcomes clearly unearthed the existing water quality of the mega city and would significantly serve to formulate well-integrated and holistic source water protection practices and to take effective measures for sustainable water quality management.

Abstract

Stunting is associated with food insecurity and diarrheal infections. Age under five years is a golden age, which is very important for optimizing growth and development in the future. This study aimed to investigate the association between food insecurity and diarrhea and the prevalence of stunting in toddlers aged 2-5 years. Analytical observations using cross-sectional design. The study sample comprised 140 children aged 2-5 years. The sample was selected by simple random sampling. Data analysis was performed using univariate, chi-squared, Kruskal-Wallis, and multivariate tests. A total of 18.6% of the toddlers were stunted, 66 families were food insecure, and 31 toddlers had diarrhea. There was a relationship between chronic diarrhea and short nutritional status (p<0.001), and there was a significant relationship between food insecurity and the incidence of stunting (p=0.001). Results of the multivariate analysis using logistic regression. The final modal formula was log p (stunting) = -2.549 + 1.808 (parental income < minimum wage) + 6.098 (history of diarrhea) + 1.396 (food insecurity). Diarrhea is the dominant factor that most influences the incidence of stunting.
