This book covers pollution and environmental engineering strategies aimed at achieving cleaner industrial and environmental outcomes, serving as an educational reference text rather than a primary research study.
Does Individuals’ Perception of Wastewater Pollution Decrease Their Self-Rated Health? Evidence from China
Researchers found that individuals in China who perceive higher levels of local wastewater pollution report significantly lower self-rated health, using large-scale survey data from all 31 provinces to quantify the associations between environmental pollution perception and subjective health outcomes.
Social Inequalities of Climate Change With a Regional and Global Approach
This paper examines the social inequalities created by climate change, arguing that its effects disproportionately harm lower-income and marginalized communities. The analysis connects climate change, environmental pollution, and systemic inequity as linked challenges requiring coordinated global responses.
Olumsuz Çevresel Faktörlerin Toplum Sağlığı Üzerine Etkileri (Hava-Su-Toprak Kirliliği)
This review examines how air, water, and soil pollution affect public health through a One Health framework, noting that environmental pollutants including microplastics and nanomaterials pose emerging risks. Researchers found that urbanization, industrialization, and climate change are intensifying environmental health threats, with vulnerable populations disproportionately affected. The study emphasizes the need for monitoring, early warning systems, and protective strategies to address deepening health inequalities.
Contaminación Ambiental y sus Efectos en la Salud Publica
This Spanish-language review analyzes the relationship between environmental contamination and public health effects, examining evidence from epidemiological studies on noise, air pollution, and other contaminants. The review reports that traffic noise significantly increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and that much of the global population continues to live in areas with poor air quality.
Health Literacy and Environmental Risks Focusing Air Pollution: Results from a Cross-Sectional Study in Germany
Researchers surveyed health literacy related to air pollution risks in a sample of the German general population. The study found that people's understanding of environmental health risks varied based on their information sources and prior knowledge, suggesting that more targeted communication strategies are needed to help the public better understand and respond to air quality threats.
