Abstract

The goal of this research is to address the causes and effects of climate change in Afghanistan and to develop strategies and solutions for a sustainable future. A qualitative approach was utilized, employing semi-structured interviews with climate change experts selected via snowball sampling. These interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed, coded, and analyzed through thematic analysis. The study identified various causes of climate change in Afghanistan, such as deforestation, fossil fuel combustion, urbanization, ongoing conflicts, industrial activities, inefficient waste management, and poor water management practices. These factors have culminated in escalating droughts, melting glaciers and snow, floods and storms, as well as adverse effects on agriculture and livestock, and an increase in diseases among humans, animals, and plants. The research underscores the urgent need for mitigation strategies and sustainable solutions for Afghanistan’s future. Proposed strategies and solutions include seeking foreign aid, collaborating with national and international organizations, raising public awareness, preventing deforestation and smuggling, implementing water storage measures, learning from other countries’ experiences, conducting further assessments and research, expanding greenery, and formulating comprehensive policies and strategic plans for water management. The findings are significant for the Afghan government, national and international organizations engaged in climate change efforts, and policymakers. Given Afghanistan's heightened vulnerability to climate change, it is essential to take proactive measures and prioritize mitigation and adaptation efforts to ensure a sustainable future for the country. Addressing these critical issues will require coordinated action and sustained commitment from all stakeholders involved.

Abstract

Nowadays, water contamination is a big issue due to concerns about health and water scarcity. Unfortunately, most water for human consumption is contaminated with various pathogenic microorganisms that cause water-related diseases. Most traditional chemical and physical disinfectants are energy- and time-intensive and prone to generating harmful disinfection by-products. The recent controversy about waterborne diseases and the safety of commonly used disinfection methods has renewed interest in other forms of disinfection. Low-cost, high-efficiency, and low-energy devices should be developed for potential water disinfection, enabling safe drinking water access. Recently, many researchers have been working on improving the scalability and economics of nanomaterial-based devices to overcome many of the limitations of using traditional anti-microbial agents. Herein, we develop a safe and efficient new nanomaterial decontamination device targeting bacteria in drinking water. Zinc Oxide (ZnO) Nanowires and polyurethane sponges were utilized as affordable and available materials that would lower the cost of the filtration device. The device is based on an electroporation method that applies a low voltage of ~6 V to inactivated bacteria in water. The performance of our device was optimized using different values of voltages, flow rates, microorganism concentrations, and various operation times. By relying on nanotechnology-enabled electroporation principles, this method aims to address the limitations of traditional techniques and offer a feasible solution, especially in areas grappling with contamination issues that lack water treatment infrastructure.

Abstract

Respiratory tract infections (RTIs) are a significant public health issue globally, with varying degrees of severity and implications. Environmental factors, particularly atmospheric parameters, can exacerbate these health conditions. Understanding the relationship between atmospheric conditions and RTIs is crucial for effective public health interventions. This systematic literature review analyzes research on the impact of atmospheric parameters on RTIs through a systematic search across multiple electronic databases using different keyword combinations. The retrieved articles were categorized based on atmospheric parameters investigated, such as temperature, humidity, air pollution, and rainfall. The review findings indicate that various atmospheric factors, including wind speed, air pollution (PM10, PM2.5, CO, and O3), air temperature, atmospheric pressure, and humidity, influence the occurrence and severity of respiratory infections. Low wind speed and high air pollution were identified as risk factors for severe acute respiratory infection (SARI). In children, meteorological factors like air temperature, atmospheric pressure, rainfall, sunlight hours, wind speed, and relative humidity were associated with lower respiratory tract infections. Pollutants like PM2.5, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and tropospheric ozone directly impact pediatric respiratory infections. Climate variables affect the seasonal activity of pathogens like respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). These findings underscore the importance of considering atmospheric parameters in understanding and preventing RTIs. Addressing these challenges requires a comprehensive approach integrating environmental and public health interventions. This approach can better mitigate the effects of atmosphere-related risks on respiratory health.

Abstract

The improper management of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) constitutes a critical global environmental challenge, with a significant proportion of e-waste ending up in landfills, posing substantial ecological and health risks. In the Philippines, particularly in areas like Marilao, many individuals rely on the recycling of e-waste for their livelihoods, primarily through junkshops and informal recycling networks. Despite providing economic benefits, these practices often result in substantial residual waste, exacerbating landfill overflow and environmental degradation. This study aims to establish a detailed e-waste inventory and propose practical strategies for improving residual waste management. This research used a mixed-method approach to collect data via surveys, interviews, and direct observations at selected junkshops in Marilao. The findings enabled a comprehensive categorization of e-waste based on economic value, highlighting "temperature exchange equipment" as the most economically valuable category while identifying "small IT and telecommunication equipment" as the least. Among the significant residual wastes identified were base/black plastics, styrofoam, and glass, which are commonly mishandled. The study proposes several management strategies, including partnerships with local governmental bodies and recycling companies to enhance recycling processes, improving dismantling techniques to reduce waste, and implementing rigorous waste segregation practices to prevent contamination and improve recycling rates. This expansion is critical for a more comprehensive understanding and monitoring of e-waste management practices, facilitating the development of more effective and sustainable waste management solutions. By adopting these strategies, junkshops and informal recyclers can optimize e-waste management, reducing environmental impact while maintaining economic viability.
