Immune-mediated disease caused by climate change-associated environmental hazards: mitigation and adaptation

Frontiers in Science, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 2

Global warming and climate change have increased the pollen burden frequency intensity of wildfires, sand dust storms, thunderstorms, heatwaves—with concomitant increases in air pollution, heat stress, flooding. These environmental stressors alter human exposome trigger complex immune responses. In parallel, pollutants, allergens, other factors increase risks skin mucosal barrier disruption microbial dysbiosis, while a loss biodiversity reduced exposure to diversity impairs tolerogenic development. The resulting dysregulation is contributing an immune-mediated diseases such as asthma allergic diseases, autoimmune cancer. It now abundantly clear that multisectoral, multidisciplinary, transborder efforts based on Planetary Health One approaches (which consider dependence health environment natural ecosystems) are urgently needed adapt mitigate effects change. Key actions include reducing emissions improving quality (through fossil fuel use), providing safe housing (e.g., weatherization), diets (i.e., diversity) agricultural practices, increasing green spaces. There also pressing need for collaborative, multidisciplinary research better understand pathophysiology context New data science techniques, biomarkers, economic models should be used measure impact disease, inform mitigation adaptation efforts, evaluate their effectiveness. Justice, equity, diversity, inclusion (JEDI) considerations integral these address disparities

Green Infrastructure for Urban Flood Resilience: A Review of Recent Literature on Bibliometrics, Methodologies, and Typologies

Water, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 15(3), С. 523 - 523

Опубликована: Янв. 28, 2023

Urban flood resilience can critically diminish the negative effects of extreme climatic conditions. In recent decades, green infrastructure has been gaining attention among researchers and authorities in terms its use urban contexts to enhance resilience. This paper tries provide knowledge on how recently approached through infrastructure. To do this, distribution topics interest, authors, sources/regions publication are investigated a systematic review articles. Additionally, methodological approaches typologies examined. Findings show an agglomeration publications developed countries. It was also observed that there is predominance quantitative low connectivity for some hot within this field research (e.g., biodiversity). The most common used discussed. noticeable more than half papers general park/open space) describe rather using technical providing information water flow management characteristics. outcomes discussed give overview latest hotspots gaps research, which gives future directions/expectations be followed forthcoming investigations.

Exploring the causal relationship between PM 2.5 air pollution and urban areas economic welfare and social‐wellbeing: Evidence form 15 European capitals

Sustainable Development, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 32(5), С. 4567 - 4592

Опубликована: Фев. 8, 2024

Abstract This paper aims to investigate the relationship between air pollution (PM2.5) and a collection of features related urban areas economic welfare social‐wellbeing based on data collected from number 15 European capitals, for seven years' period (2010–2017). The empirical analysis describes correlation particulate in selected areas. Moreover, PM2.5 pollutions may affect social development these as, both entrepreneurs population are inclined relocate healthier environment. models emphasize aspects impact PM 2.5 different dimensions as follows: real estate rent values land prices, restaurants food community development, human welfare, well traffic. From various correlations we have also discovered that included research, at early stages urbanization has highest pollution. findings this study offer hints decision makers their policy options. A clean environment will attract more skilled employees seeking economic, environmental wellbeing. If agglomerations authorities fail mitigate properly issues wellbeing decrease along with willingness stay such

Urban green spaces accessibility in two European cities: Vilnius (Lithuania) and Coimbra (Portugal)

Geography and sustainability, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 3(1), С. 74 - 84

Urban green spaces (UGS) are essential for human well-being, contributing towards quality of life and promoting social interactions inclusion. Accessibility to recreational UGS is key well-being in urban areas. However, there a lack works focused on accessibility cities from different countries, using types transport. In this work, we studied the Vilnius (Lithuania) Coimbra (Portugal) through four transport modes (foot, bike, bus car) within 5- 10-minute distance. The results showed important differences between cities. had higher than all modes. both cities, was highest by car lowest bus. Also, percentage population covered distance Coimbra, despite lower density Vilnius. A large number UGS, their geographic distribution, dispersed pattern, location several urbanizations near increased inhabitant's were mainly attributed road network density, cycleways footways lines Vilnius, compared Coimbra. This work identified areas where difficult need be improved study support planners increase cities' well-being. findings will management
