Neglected Musculoskeletal Injuries

By: Anil K. Jain,Sudhir Kumar

There is rapidly growing burden of trauma worldwide, in a wide spectrum of socioeconomic societies and a complex heterogeneous health delivery infrastructures. There is a mixture of great contrast with most advanced corporate hospital of international repute and the poorest of the health unit with no medical facility. The injuries may remain neglected as a large section of population may not have an access to modern health care either due to lack of education or because of high cost of treatment and the non-availability of transportation to reach the required place in right time. The suboptima.

Sustainable Development

Economics and Environment in the Third World

By: David Pearce,Edward Barbier,Anil Markandya

Blueprint for a Green Economy put the economics of the environment onto the public agenda. Its authors have now widened the issue by applying the principles of their earlier, ground-breaking work to the tangled issue of sustainable Third World development. They offer a definition of sustainable development in terms of not depleting natural resources and then examine its economic implications. The bulk of the book contains six lively case-studies of major developmental issues, from the watersheds of Java to the drylands of the Sudan; from Amazonia to Africa, all of which show the crucial importance of incorporating the economics of sustainable development into our thinking.

Adsorption Technique for Removed of Heavy Metal Ions

By: Dr. Anil Rameshwar Somwanshi

Water is generally obtained from two principal natural sources: surface water such as fresh water lakes, rivers, streams and groundwater such as borehole water. Water is one of the essentials that support all forms of plant and animal life and it has unique chemical properties due to its polarity and hydrogen bond which means it is able to dissolve, absorb, adsorb or suspend many different compounds. Groundwater is the major source of drinking water in the world because of its availability and constant quality [1-3]. Groundwater is also the preferred source of drinking water in rural areas, particularly in developing countries, because no treatment is often required and the water source is often located near consumers. However, in nature, water is not pure as it acquires contaminants from its surroundings and those arising from humans and animals as well as other biological activities

South Asia's Hotspots

The Impact of Temperature and Precipitation Changes on Living Standards

By: Muthukumara Mani,Sushenjit Bandyopadhyay,Shun Chonabayashi,Anil Markandya

South Asia is particularly vulnerable to climate change. Most previous studies have focused on the projected impacts of sea-level rise or extreme weather - droughts, floods, heatwaves and storm surges. This study adds to that knowledge by identifying the impacts of long-term changes in the climate †“ rising temperatures and changes in precipitation patterns †“ on living standards. It does so by first building an understanding of the relationship between current climate conditions and living standards across South Asia. The study also identifies the set of climate models that are best suited for projecting long-term changes in climate across South Asia. This novel understanding of living standards and climate change is then combined to project impacts of long-term changes in climate on living standards in South Asia. The study finds that higher temperatures will reduce living standards for most of South Asia, with the severity impacts depending on future global greenhouse gas emissions. The study projects “hotspots†?, which are locations where long-term changes in climate will have negative impacts on living standards. Many hotspots are in locations that hitherto have not been identified as particularly vulnerable to climate change. Moreover, hotspots have distinguishing features that vary from country to country. This detailed assessment provides a mosaic of information that enriches our understanding of how climate change will impact people and which populations are most vulnerable. The report also provides guidance on the kinds of actions are most likely to reduce impacts of climate change in each country. The study is a major contribution to our understanding of how increasing temperatures and changing precipitation patterns interact with social and economic structures at a fine granular level across South Asia.
