Download or read book Meeting the Needs of the Poor for Water Supply and Waste Disposal written by Fredrick L. Golladay and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines economic, political, social and cultural obstacles to meeting the needs of low-income people for water supply and waste disposal and it proposes steps to reduce these obstacles. Households are often poorly informed about available options and are unable to allocate resources efficiently among their members. The paper suggests ways in which communications, peer and family support for innovators and incentives can be strengthened. Communities organize and manage resources in order to carry out activities that cannot be profitably undertaken by households, encourage constructive change and sanction undesirable behavior. The paper proposes methods for facilitating the formation and operation of community organizations to carry out these functions. Formal bureaucracies provide professionalized technical and administrative services, and supply policy guidance, goods and financial resources to operating agencies and communities. Largely because of their inherent conservatism, formal bureaucracies often fail to satisfy these needs, especially for innovative activities. Governments must revise legal codes to permit adoption of affordable technologies, and must assist community organizations in dealing with legal, financial, technical and administrative problems.

Download or read book Arsenic in Drinking Water and Food written by Sudhakar Srivastava and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arsenic contamination poses a major environmental problem, especially in Southeast Asian countries like Bangladesh and India. Threatening the health of millions of people due to arsenic’s toxicity and carcinogenicity, the major routes of arsenic exposure for humans are either through drinking water or crops. Rice is the crop most affected by arsenic owing to its cultivation in major arsenic contaminated areas, biogeochemical factors in the soil during rice growth, and specific features of rice that enable it take up more arsenic than other crop plants. This book addresses the problem of arsenic by pursuing a holistic approach. It presents the status quo in different parts of the world (North and South America, Europe, Asia, etc.) and provides essential information on food-related arsenic exposure risks for humans, and possible preventive and curative measures for tackling arsenic poisoning. It covers the arsenic contamination status of rice, rice-based products, other vegetables, fishes, mushrooms, and other foods, with a special focus on rice-arsenic interactions. The mechanisms of arsenic uptake, translocation and distribution in plants and grains are also explained. In closing, the book reviews a variety of prospective agronomic and biotechnological solutions to the problem of arsenic accumulation in rice grains. The book is intended for a broad audience including researchers, scientists, and readers with diverse backgrounds including agriculture, environmental science, food science, environmental management, and human health. It can also be used as an important reference guide for undergraduate and graduate students, university faculties, and environmentalists.

Download or read book Poverty and Social Developments in Peru 1994 1997 written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1999 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where, when, and how much to invest in wastewater treatment is a policy decision that presents many challenges and is not properly addressed in most situations worldwide. The most common situations are, unfortunately, those in which no treatment is provided at all... The integration of wastewater management and pollution control interventions and policies within the broader water resources management policy are essential for achieving the efficient use of the scarce resource available. With that in mind, this paper has three objectives: * Emphasize the need for systematic evaluation of wastewater management actions and investments as part of any water resources management initiative. * Define the conceptual framework that should guide the analysis process. * Identify and explore techniques appropriate to this analysis. The ultimate purpose of the paper is to provide a general approach to developing and implementing wastewater management interventions. Its scope is determined by two main considerations: (i) the need to incorporate the general principles that determine water resources management policies into the design and selection of wastewater management and pollution control interventions; and (ii) the need to address water quality problems at the appropriate geographical scale.
