Also in laboratories we should be critical about the amount of water, energy, and resources used. There is room for increasing efficiency and better mangement there as well. The objective of this study is to evaluate the carbon and water footprints present in an environmental laboratory..

Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent synthetic chemicals with strong carbon-fluorine (C-F) bonds, making them resistant to environmental degradation. Their widespread presence in groundwater, surface water, and drinking water, is a serious environmental threat. This artciles demonstrates the potential of novel adsorbents to achieve high PFAS removal rates while minimizing secondary contamination risks.

IoT technologies are a powerful tool for large-scale water distribution systems, this survey highlight the key challenges such as interoperability, scalability, and energy efficiency. It proposes a framework that combines water network analysis, wireless network simulation, and optimization algorithms to enable sustainable and efficient deployment of massive IoT in water distribution systems

This study examined perceptions and awareness of brain health among Cuban youth through an online survey of 1,049 participants using the Global Brain Health Survey. Results showed that participants viewed the social environment as the most influential factor on brain health and were generally aware of conditions like Alzheimer’s and depression, but had limited understanding of the cognitive effects of chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes, underscoring the need for targeted public health education and awareness campaigns.
