ReportingonHealth.org Body Burden Webinar - Janet Wilson Presentation
A new study from state researchers in California estimates that air pollution is linked to 24,000 deaths annually in the state, much higher than the previous estimate of 8,200. The article discusses communities that face high levels of pollution, including Maywood, which is located in industry's shadow. It provides tips for testing pollution levels in one's own community, such as considering which chemicals to test for like lead, mercury, and arsenic, as well as ethical issues around consent and delivering results.
Social Relations
This document discusses the effects of urbanization on social relations. It notes that as populations increase and migrate from rural to urban areas, social bonds weaken as family and neighborhood ties are replaced by workplace connections. Urbanization also leads to less trust in society and the creation of social classes. Specific groups at risk are those experiencing unplanned population growth and poor living conditions. A lack of public, private, and civic institutions further exacerbates the negative impacts of urbanization on social relations.
Environmental risk factors for criminal behavior 7
Routine activities theory posits that young unmarried males are at highest risk of victimization due to their nightly activities away from home. Their drug and alcohol use, delinquent behaviors, and time in high-risk areas increases contact with offenders. Environmental factors like living in disorganized neighborhoods with high poverty and crime also increase risk of criminal involvement. Exposure to toxins such as lead, mercury, and food dyes has been linked to aggressive and antisocial behavior as well as increased violence and delinquency.
Environmental risk factors for criminal behavior pp5
Routine activities theory proposes that young unmarried males are at highest risk of victimization due to their nightly activities away from home. These activities expose them to offenders, risky behaviors like drug and alcohol use, and delinquent situations. Their lifestyles and routines therefore substantially increase their risk of victimization. Exposure to environmental contaminants like lead, mercury, and food dyes has also been linked to aggressive and antisocial behavior in studies. Living in neighborhoods with high poverty, crime, and pollution increases the likelihood that youth will engage in criminal acts.
Environmental risk factors for criminal behavior
Routine activities theory proposes that young unmarried males are at highest risk of victimization due to their nightly activities away from home. These activities expose them to offenders, risky behaviors like drug and alcohol use, and delinquent situations. As a result of their routine lifestyles, they are substantially more likely to be victimized. Additionally, sociobiological theories link exposure to environmental contaminants like lead, mercury, and food dyes to increased aggressive and antisocial behavior. Studies found communities with high lead levels had more violence and that lead poisoning predicted male delinquency and adult criminality. Poor and disorganized neighborhoods are also associated with higher criminal involvement due to weak social controls.
Joey Munley: Environmental Politics
Global politics and lack of environmental regulations have led to disproportionate environmental hazards in low-income and minority communities both in the US and globally. Research shows these communities are more likely to host hazardous waste sites and industrial plants. A key example is the Bhopal disaster in India where a Union Carbide plant leaked deadly gas, killing thousands due to lax regulations and being located near a dense residential area. While conditions have improved in some areas, overall environmental injustice has gotten worse as research finds toxins in nearly all people tested in the US.
Environmental racism
In many places across the globe, people share their neighborhoods with hazardous waste facilities, chemically contaminated areas, and toxic incinerators. The story of communities living in contamination is neither rare nor surprising anymore. However, did you know that not all of us get exposed to toxic waste and pollution equally? Many different studies have provided strong evidence for disproportionate vulnerability to environmental hazards that mainly affects the people of color, immigrants, indigenous communities, women, and members of low socioeconomic groups. This pattern has been referred to as Environmental Racism – the concept that developed as a part of the environmental justice movement.

Inequities in Enviornmental Stressors
The document discusses environmental stressors that disproportionately impact disadvantaged groups. It analyzes five main stressors: lead, heat, noise, air pollution and asthma. For each stressor, it provides evidence of biological mechanisms, epidemiological data on exposure patterns, and health impacts. Overall, the document argues that disadvantaged communities experience higher exposure and sensitivity to these stressors, with unknown cumulative health effects that could constitute environmental injustice.
What is transparency
This document discusses the concept of transparency as it relates to building materials and chemicals. It provides several examples of chemicals of concern found in common building products like phthalates, flame retardants, and BPA. These chemicals have been linked to health issues like reproductive harm and developmental disorders. There is increasing availability of data on product ingredients and impacts, driven by technology and demands for transparency from customers. However, full transparency remains challenging as many chemicals are still considered trade secrets. The era of "radical transparency" may provide more information on what products contain, how they were produced, and their global environmental and social impacts.

Phillip Blond: The big society
This document discusses Phillip Blond's perspective on using civil society and association to address health inequalities in the UK. It notes decreases in civic engagement, volunteering, and social cohesion. Strengthening social capital by supporting community groups and encouraging participation in health programs could help reduce inequalities. Peer-to-peer communication and promoting personal responsibility are highlighted as strategies.
Elderly mental health
This document discusses the development of an artificial companion called "Buddy" to help address issues of loneliness and mental health concerns in elderly populations. It notes that 20% of those over 55 experience mental health issues, and loneliness is a major problem for many seniors. Buddy is proposed as a conversational robot that provides mental stimulation, surveys health data, and reduces isolation. It aims to lower rates of depression and suicide in lonely or isolated elders. An evaluation plan and funding needs are outlined to develop and test Buddy over multiple years.
Water Words Cbi
This document presents the "Water Words That Work" method, a three-step process for more effectively communicating complex water-related topics to non-experts. It involves removing technical jargon, building confidence through demonstration, and inserting impactful language. Americans care about water issues but experts struggle to convey information clearly to most of the public, who get information from diverse new media sources. This method aims to overcome challenges of confusion and diffuse understanding.

This document presents the "Water Words That Work" method, a three-step process for more effectively communicating complex water-related topics to non-experts. It involves removing technical jargon, building confidence through examples, and inserting impactful language. Americans care about water issues but experts struggle to convey information clearly. This method aims to overcome challenges of confusion from technical terms and wide diffusion of information sources.
Water Words That Work WREN2008 Conference
This document summarizes a presentation on effective environmental communications. It discusses challenges like confusing terminology and information diffusion. It then introduces the "Water Words That Work Method" which is a 4-step process to translate expert information into clear, compelling language for non-experts. The steps are to identify common terms, answer common questions, insert effective words, and avoid common pitfalls. The goal is to give people confidence to understand issues and take meaningful actions.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.The Best Ayurvedic Antacid Tablets in India
