Around 03 billion people still cook using biomass fuels, these cooking practices are hazardous and produce a wide range of health-damaging pollutants causing high level household air pollution. Most of these people using solid fuels belong to lower wealth quintile household and resides in low and middle-income countries. The women and young children who spend most of their time near the domestic hearth are comparatively more exposed to toxic amount of household air pollutants every day. The current study compares the scenario of child respiratory health; assessing the occurrence of ARI and cough among children aged under five in South and Southeast Asian countries. The current study is comprised of analysis of Demographic Health Survey data for Afghanistan, India, Nepal, Cambodia, Bangladesh and Philippines. A comparative study was conducted between the selected countries. The differences in categorical variables were tested using Pearson’s χ2 Statistics, since both treatment and outcome variable in the study are binomial, a simultaneous equation was used (probit regression model). The results indicated that there is an increased likelihood of occurrence of ARI and cough among children aged under five belonging to the households using solid fuel in the selected South and Southeast Asian countries

Demographic variability and micro-regional disparities are two important concepts in the study of population and development. Demographic variability refers to changes in the size, structure, and composition of a population over time, which are influenced by birth and death rates, migration patterns, and other factors. Micro-regional disparities, on the other hand, refer to the unequal distribution of economic, social, and environmental resources within a small geographic area. These disparities can lead to unequal outcomes for different population groups and negatively impact their quality of life. Understanding the interplay between demographic variability and microregional disparities is essential for developing effective policies and programs aimed at promoting equitable and sustainable development. The purpose of this study to analyse the micro-regional disparities and demographic variability in the demographic development across 727 inhabited villages and 17 are un-inhabited/forest villages of Singrauli district of Madhya Pradesh, 2011. The study is mainly based on secondary sources of data collected from various sources like, the District Census Handbook, 2011 and official websites of the government of Madhya Pradesh. To examine the status of demographic variability and the level of demographic development in the study area, have been applied the composite index (CI) method by considering 10 indicators at the village level. The study reveals that the villages of Singrauli district have huge microregional disparity and demographic variability and it is classified into various levels.

Inoculating sewage water onto Gambusia relative can make both positive and adverse consequences. On the positive side, it can give supplements to the fish, including nitrogen, phosphorus, and other fundamental components. Also, the microscopic organisms in the sewage water can assist with lessening how much alkali and different poisons are in the water. This can be valuable to the fish by assisting with keeping the water spotless and sound. On the negative side, the microorganisms in the sewage water can be pathogenic, implying that they can cause sickness or disease. In addition, the sewage water might contain different impurities, for example, weighty metals, which can be harmful to the fish. Also, the microscopic organisms in the sewage water can make disturbance and irritation the skin and nutritious channels of the fish. This can be entirely awkward for the fish, and it might be deadly if not tended to rapidly.

The outbreak of Covid-19 was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 31st January, 2020. Every country can take at national, sub regional and local levels to reorganize essential health services in the pandemic context and maintain a safe access to every citizen. To deal with this catastrophic Corona Virus India is making preparedness with its high urban population density, deficiency in hygiene and sanitation facilities and most crucially insufficient treatment capacity. The first 2000 cases were reported in 56 days. The next 2000 in 15 days and the next 2000 cases in a week. According to the data released by the state health department, West Bengal took just 5 days from June 3 rd to June 7th to register the next 2000 cases. Till Tuesday (9th June) total cases in the state stood at 8985. With increased number of testing and the entry of migrant labourers, there was a sudden spike in the number of cases. The returning migrant workers from the highly infected zones after an unplanned lockdown delivers a major catastrophe at our doorstep. The objective of the study is to focus on the arrangement of health services for this disaster in Birbhum District, West Bengal. According to the direction of the Bengal health department, separate hospitals for Covid-19 patients are to be set up in each district in order to arrange a local set-up before the contamination expands into the community transmission stage.

The intent of this study is to concentrate on the rising rate of migration among tribal children in the Dungrpur District. Migration of children for labour has been an increasing cause of concern. Both primary and secondary data have been used at the level of villages to highlight the problem at hand. Migration, which accounts of 56 percent of the aggregate income in this area, is the main source of income for households. Tribes and non-tribe people migrate from the district in search of employment because it seems impoverished. In this paper looks at the circumstances surrounding the migration of children into the district's rural areas for work. Additionally, the locations of migrants' final destinations, their working environments, and the challenges that these migrants' children encounter with their schooling were highlighted. Results from primary and secondary sources comes out that in search of employment in the BT cotton fields, brick manufacturing, construction, hotels, Dhabas, and tea-stoles. Numerous individuals physically and mentally harass them at their place of employment. At destinations, these children become extremely vulnerable. They experience numerous illnesses as children and lose their childhood without any fun. This issue is so serious that the government wants to implement some measures to stop this kind of migration in the Dungarpur district.

Bangladesh’s coastal area is vulnerable to the changing climatic condition because of its geographic location and low-lying topography, and this vulnerability has been acute due to reducing upland flow during dry periods and sea level rise contributing to saline intrusion and inundation of coastal freshwater resources. Over the past 25 years, salinity intrusion in Bangladesh has increased by about 26 percent with the affected areas expanding each year. According to a study by World Bank in 2014, climate change is likely to further increase river and groundwater salinity dramatically by 2050 and exacerbate shortages of drinking water in the southwest coastal areas. Because of the salinity of both groundwater and surface water in the Mongla port municipality area, compound river water and rainfed pond water became the main source of drinking water here. Currently, Mongla Port municipality located in the coastal belt is supplying water to town dwellers by pipeline with a water treatment system taking raw water from both harvested rainwater and a limited period of river water through ponds. From physical observation, focus group discussion with water users, and interaction with key information providers, the study team assessed the quantity of water against the demand and also analyzed the quality of water both are satisfied. By using secondary data, the study team also analyzed the Mongla River’s water salinity and rainfall intensity for assessing its long-run feasibility of it. The result of the study on Mongla Port municipality’s water supply shows that it is a well-functional system, that could be replicated in another coastal area as it is a nature-based solution which makes the people and authority adapt it easily with keeping well-functioning

Because of the salinity of both groundwater and surface water in the Mongla port municipality area, compound river water and rainfed pond water became the main source of drinking water here. Currently, Mongla Port municipality located in the coastal belt is supplying water to town dwellers by pipeline with a water treatment system taking raw water from both harvested rainwater and a limited period of river water through ponds. From physical observation, focus group discussion with water users, and interaction with key information providers, the study team assessed the quantity of water against the demand and also analyzed the quality of water both are satisfied. By using secondary data, the study team also analyzed the Mongla River’s water salinity and rainfall intensity for assessing its long-run feasibility of it. The result of the study on Mongla Port municipality’s water supply shows that it is a well-functional system, that could be replicated in another coastal area as it is a nature-based solution which makes the people and authority adapt it easily with keeping well-functioning","PeriodicalId":420878,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Global Resources","volume":"22 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132810571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
