Determinants of variation in food cost and availability in two socioeconomically contrasting neighbourhoods of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
Stature and adiposity among children in contrasting neighborhoods in the city of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
It is hypothesized in this study that body size and shape vary by local area within the North American urban environment. This study tests that hypothesis by comparing stature and adiposity among children (of age 6-10 years) attending elementary schools in three neighborhoods that contrast by socioeconomic status and recent immigrant status. While the whole sample of children (n = 266) has 27.4% of children that can be classified as overweight/ob…
Food Fight
is that the increasingprevalence ofobesity follows inexorably from the pairing ofhuman biology with the created by presentday eating and exercise patterns. Much ofthe book is devoted todescribing this environment and the force-likenedto that ofatsunami-withwhich it shapes public health.In Part 1(Chapters I to 3), the authors make the casethat changing the toxic environment is the most effectiveapproach for halting the spread ofthe global obesity…
Monitoring Land and Water Use in the Gefara Region by Satellite Imagery
Over ninety-seven per cent of Libya's water for agricultural and other uses came from groundwater in 1980 (Pallas). By then it was obvious that the renewable water in the coastal aquifers was seriously depleted and would not be sufficient to sustain the levels of water use implied by the national agricultural development plans. Meanwhile the potential of the southern aquifers had become apparent through their development in Kufrah, Sarir and Fezz…
