Effect of compositional and contextual factors on the perceived importance of environmental change and livelihood sectors in three Caribbean countries
Perceived changes in the quality of terrestrial, coastal, marine environment and natural resources in coastal communities in the Caribbean
Economies and livelihoods in the Caribbean strongly depend on the terrestrial and marine natural resource base. There are critical gaps in quantitative data and the contextual and compositional factors affecting perceptions of changes in ecosystems and natural resources. This paper used interview data from 441 households in Belize, Dominican Republic, and Suriname to explore the contextual and compositional determinants of perceptions of change i…
Estimating virtual land use under future conditions
Climate Mitigation and Hidden Vulnerabilities
This study used the United Kingdom and feed barley as case example to highlight the potential of climate mitigation policies in the global north to create food vulnerabilities in the global south or widen the food gap between the global north and south. Future UK feed barley supply was assessed under the influence of projected climate change, climate mitigation policy scenarios, and population growth. The results showed that land-based climate mi…
Assessment of Self-Reported Adverse Health Outcomes of Electronic Waste Workers Exposed to Xenobiotics in Ghana
One out of every eight deaths globally is attributable to air pollution and these disproportionately ensue in high population density areas in lower income countries characterized by higher long-term levels of ambient pollution. Yet, our understanding of how population attributes and neighborhood effects jointly influence exposure to e-waste related air pollutants and disease symptoms is limited. Generalized linear models (logit, complementary lo…
Predictive Probabilities of Access to Clean Cooking
Access to clean cooking fuels is critical for human health and features, prominently in the UN Sustainable Development Goals. However, our understanding of the probabilities of access to clean cooking across sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is emergent. A pooled regression analysis of the compositional and contextual factors that cumulatively influence access to clean cooking fuels in 31 SSA countries, between 2010 and 2016, was carried out. Household ac…
Mapping of noise risk zones derived from religious activities and perceptions in residential neighbourhoods in the Cape Coast metropolis, Ghana
Ambient noise levels emanating from religious activities in residential neighbourhoods are an emerging environmental problem that educes little attention from enforcement agencies and policy makers in Ghana. This paper set out to quantify religious noise exposure in urban residential neighbourhoods in the Cape Coast metropolis of Ghana. Subjective annoyance levels of residents in selected communities were determined. Noise risk zones were mapped …
