In this study, the authors estimate the causal effect of air pollution on eye and ear health. They find that eye or ear disease possibility rises 1.48% for a 10 μg/m3 increase in four-week average PM2.5 concentration. The impacts can last about 28 weeks and will be insignificant afterward.
The article systematically reviews research linking climate change to food systems, nutrition, and health (FSNH) from 2018-2023. It identifies key research gaps and presents an Evidence and Gap Map (EGM) to visualize the current landscape. Most studies focus on climate impacts on crop and livestock production, while fewer address nutrition-related health and postharvest processes. Addressing these gap is critical for developing effective climate adaptation and mitigation strategies that promote both human and planetary health.
The article dives into various carbon capture technologies to provide a thorough understanding of the various techniques used in Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage.
This text ties into several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) and SDG 13 (Climate Action). It highlights the potential of lignin as a sustainable material that can reduce reliance on traditional plastics and contribute to carbon fixation, promoting circularity and environmental sustainability.
The Leaders Summit is the UN Global Compact’s dynamic day-long conference dedicated to providing the tools, network, knowledge, and inspiration needed to scale the impact of private sector contribu
This One Earth Research Article shows how increasing urbanization & land use change is contributing to warmer temperatures at regional and continental scales. The results have important implications regarding the need for climate mitigation and adaptation (SDG 13), urban planning (SDG 11) and the terrestrial biosphere (SDG 15).
The Great Salt Lake is drying up, and the dried lake edges emit significantly more greenhouse gases. This One Earth Research Article measures the GHG emissions and estimates how much of those emissions are 'anthropogenic', i.e., caused by excessive water withdrawals. The results show that unmitigated lake drying contributes significantly to the state's anthropogenic GHG emissions (SDG 13).
This research emphasizes the critical importance of recognizing the socioecological intricacies of coastal zones for informed policy-making and sustainable management, calling for a paradigm shift in the conceptualization and governance of these vital ecosystems.
This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health and Goal 13: Climate Action by exploring the relationship between mental health and climate anxiety in subjects of differing ages.
The study of Laguna Bacalar's paleoecology during the Late Holocene provides important insights into how regional climate changes and sea level fluctuations have shaped the vegetation and ecosystems of this region, which can inform conservation efforts and climate adaptation strategies.
