3) Research like the Human Microbiome Project shows that humans are intricately interconnected with other life forms through our microbiomes, and should view ourselves as part of larger living systems rather than as a singular species. This highlights our dependence on nature and other organisms.
Deep Ecology rejects the anthropocentric views of shallow ecology and recognizes nature as having intrinsic value. It is based on the ideas that humans are part of the larger ecological community, that nature has moral standing, and that human interference disrupts ecosystems. Key figures like Aldo Leopold, Arne Næss, and Peter Singer argue for a land ethic, minimizing human impact, and applying a utilitarian standard of suffering to non-human animals. While utopian, Deep Ecology strives to see humans as members of rather than masters over the natural world.
The document discusses disaster management and defines key terms. It explains that a disaster occurs when hazards meet vulnerability. The combination of hazards, vulnerability, and inability to reduce risk results in disaster. Vulnerability is defined as the diminished capacity to anticipate, cope with, resist, and recover from hazards. Natural hazards become natural disasters when they affect vulnerable human populations and infrastructure. Man-made disasters result from human-caused hazards like technological or industrial accidents. The disaster management cycle includes impact/response, rehabilitation, reconstruction, mitigation, and preparedness phases. Preparedness aims to strengthen community capacity through activities like risk assessment, response planning, and resource mobilization.
This document summarizes and discusses a paper on taking a feminist studies approach to examining eco-food relations. It is divided into three parts. Part A addresses how environmental constraints will further disadvantage women in the food system and impact health and well-being. Part B describes a gender-based livelihood and nutrition intervention in Bangladesh to address constraints facing women farmers. Part C discusses advancing approaches to food justice based on critical nutrition studies and feminist perspectives.

INTRODUCTION
Evolution by natural selection has been biology's organizing principle for more than a century, but only in the last few decades has it been applied to the social sciences and medicine. Its application to medicine, known as evolutionary or Darwinian medicine, uses an evolutionary perspective to understand why the body is not better designed and why, therefore, diseases exist at all.1,2,3 This article outlines some basic principles of Darwinian medicine, summarizes the usefulness of evolutionary principles for medicine, and provides some examples from key literature sources.
For example, traditional clinical medicine looks at the problem of obesity in terms of individual differences that explain why one person becomes obese and another does not. These factors may be due to genes, early environment, or current lifestyle. Now that one half of Americans are overweight, however, it is time to answer the evolutionary question: why are our bodies designed so that most of us eat too much and exercise too little?

EVOLUTIONARY EXPLANATIONS FOR OBESITY
An initial answer is simple. In the environment in which we evolved, natural selection shaped appetite regulation mechanisms to ensure that we survived periods of famine. In those ancient times, eating required walking for hours each day to get food, a caloric cost that made it impossible for most people to accumulate much surplus as fat.4 Exposure to intermittent periods of food shortage sets off a system that prepares for a coming famine by increasing appetite and basal weight above the starting point. Dieting activates the same system, so weight can rebound to above what it was when the diet began. When young people try to lose weight by using willpower to drastically limit their food intake, their regulation mechanisms react with a response that is adaptive: they often gorge themselves. These episodes of uncontrolled eating can make the dieter even more fearful of becoming obese, so still further efforts of will arouse the mechanism more strongly, setting in cycle the positive feedback spiral we see in anorexia and bulimia.
As for our food preferences, one would think we would be designed to eat what is good for us. The system would work fine if we lived on the African savanna. In the natural environment, fat, salt, and sugar are in such short supply that when they are encountered, the useful response is to consume them. Fat provides twice as many calories per gram as carbohydrates. Sugar is often associated with ripe fruits, and seeking it out was usually beneficial. Now that we can choose our foods, we prefer what was in short supply on the African savanna.
We also choose our levels of exercise to minimize caloric expenditure—a wise strategy in the Paleolithic era when wasting calories could bring death. This tendency to be sedentary, in combination with our preferences for large amounts of high-calorie, high-fat food, has resulted in an epidemic of atherosclerotic disease. N.

Abstract
Toxoplasma Gondii is a parasite that can only sexually reproduce in cats. (Dubey, J., & Jones, J. 2008) It is able to modify animal behavior and mood through a variety of means, such as increasing the amount of Dopamine in the system through the release of the enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase causing increased impulsivity and risk taking behaviors (Costa, R. M.,2017). It is also able to modify genes through epigenetic means causing things like increased testosterone causing its host to be more aggressive. Toxoplasma Gondii does all of these things in order to make its main host, which is rats, more likely to be eaten by cats. The same things that are modified in rats in order to help the parasite in its quest to sexually reproduce also causes humans to have symptoms of psychosis and increased impulsivity. For example, people who are infected are found to have 2.5 times the amount of car crashes likely due to the increase in risky behavior (Flegr, J, 2002) and are more likely to develop disorders such as Schizophrenia and Intermittent Rage Disorder (Emil F. Coccaro, MD , 2016). This is likely due to changes in neurotransmitters and gene expression.

Population Growth since the 1800’sThe majority of population growth is a direct result of a decline of the death rate.Two factors are responsible for this:
Great advances in sanitation and health care
A rapid increase in the per capita output of both food and manufactured goods.Many social scientists view this increase as a result of the industrial revolution.
The great advances of science and technology.
The world began supporting larger populations at a higher standard of living than ever before.
Unequal population GrowthIn the late 19th century many of the less developed countries began to experience some of the benefits of modern science, industry, and transportation. This however, lowered their death rate, causing a surge in population growth much more substantial than in the U.S., Canada, or Europe. Often the increase in population in these areas occurred at the expense of standards of living.

Seeds of Change- Integrative Community Approaches to Remedy Nature Deficient...Kelly Duckert
This document discusses approaches to addressing "nature deficit disorder" in Americans by increasing access to nature in communities. It describes nature deficit disorder and how lack of nature exposure can negatively impact health and development. It argues that integrating natural areas like parks and community gardens into urban planning can help remedy this issue. Specifically, it recommends preserving natural spaces through approaches like low-impact development and creating designated areas for nature immersion and food growing through community gardens. This allows opportunities for nature connection that promote well-being.

Assignment #1 – This assignment should help you to organize your thoughts about your research. Take time to really think about the questions – this effort will make writing the actual paper much easier. Please complete this worksheet and submit on Bb. You need to submit only once per pair (make sure I know who you are working with!).
1. With your partner, develop a research question. Write your research question here:
*Please ensure that the question is not answered by the book’s author.
Question is. "How has the development in human society led to the increased frequency of obesity?"
2. Why do you have this question? Please write a paragraph or two explaining your interest in this question. Give specific information from the book that leads you to ask this question (include page numbers). Explain how this information relates to your question.
Obesity in the whole world has become a public health problem in that it has raised concern. About 700 million people aged 15 years and above in the entire world are obese. The prevalence rate of based on years past shows a rapid increase of obesity in developed countries mainly Pacific region. Various cancers, cardiovascular diseases-morbidities, type II diabetes are some of the factors which lead to morbidity and mortality; this is based on literature on body exhaustive.
A public health strategy is, therefore, to be developed based on prevention of obesity rate of increase. The development and also the process of policies on preventing obesity should target factors which tend to contribute to obesity. Moreover, it should target barriers to lifestyle changes which are personal and also environmental and levels socioeconomic.
There are etiologies which contribute to obesity in which this etiologies are multifactorial,some if these factors include sedentary lifestyle, adverse socio-economic conditions which are there in developed countries, high rate of energy dense food, rigid restraint, alcohol, large portion sizes and food ratio which are prepared outside home (mostly in developed countries) page 70 (International journal of environmental research and public health).
There is a proposed framework by sacks (2009) where a suggestion is made that there should be policy actions and implementation of health strategies to preventing obesity. These factors target environments, behaviors directly influencing people, physical activity settings, food environments and also the socioeconomic environments.
3. What do you need to learn as a biologist to understand your question in the context of human evolution?
Obesity, diabetes and also metabolic syndrome has become a worldwide health concern due to that they are growing rapidly, and their causes are not fully understood. Therefore a research into the obesity epidemic etiology is highly appreciated depending on the evolutionary roots of metabolic control. Thrifty gene hypothesis argues that obesity is an evolutionary roots of metabolic control .

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
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.

Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
