Impact of Industrial Air Pollution on Agricultural Production

The effect of industrial and agricultural pollution on human spermatogenesis.

Dibromochloropropane (DBCP), a liquid nematocidal agent, had been in use since the mid-1950s. In particular, it was used on bananas in tropical and subtropical areas of the World (Central America, Caribbean Islands, Israel...). Although its spermatotoxic effect in rats was discovered in the early 1960s, its deleterious effects on human spermatogenesis were only discovered in 1977 (Whorton et al...

Population Dynamics and Air Pollution: The Impact of Demographics on Health Impact Assessment of Air Pollution

OBJECTIVE To explore how three different assumptions on demographics affect the health impact of Danish emitted air pollution in Denmark from 2005 to 2030, with health impact modeled from 2005 to 2050. METHODS Modeled air pollution from Danish sources was used as exposure in a newly developed health impact assessment model, which models four major diseases and mortality causes in addition to ...

Impact of Air Pollution on Public Health

The air we breathe contains emissions from many different sources: industry, motor vehicles, heating and commercial sources, household fuels as well as tobacco smoke. The effects of air pollution on health have been intensively studied in recent years. The results of these studies showed that air pollution harms human health and particularly is harmful for those who are already vulnerable becau...

Tourism Impact on Air Pollution in Developed and Developing Countries

T he main purpose of this paper is to investigate and compare the impact of tourism on air pollution in selected developed and developing countries during the period of 1995-2014. To this end, at first, the model was designed based on the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) assumptions and with the presence of the major influencing factors on air pollution along with the international ...
