Seasonal Variations in Household Water Use, Microbiological Water Quality, and Challenges to the Provision of Adequate Drinking Water: A Case of Peri-urban and Informal Settlements of Hosanna Town, Southern Ethiopia
Environ Health Insights. 2024 Mar 21;18:11786302241238940. doi: 10.1177/11786302241238940. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTSeveral studies have been conducted on household water use and microbial water quality globally. However, studies that considered seasonal variability of household water use and microbial water quality were limited. Therefore, this study investigated the seasonal variability of household water use, microbiological water quality, and challenges to the provision of adequate water in the peri-urban and informal settlements of Hosanna town, Southern Ethiopia. A longitudinal study was conducted on 288 households. ...

Ethiopian Street Foods: Working Conditions and Governance Perspectives. A Qualitative Study
CONCLUSION: Though Ethiopia has a national food and nutrition policy, the policy doesn't adequately address the street food vending sector. Besides, it is not well communicated to the implementers resulting in poor policy implementation. Quantifying socio-economic benefits of street food vending activities in Ethiopia needs further investigation.PMID:38525296 | PMC:PMC10958792 | DOI:10.1177/11786302241241414 (Source: Environmental Health Insights)

Level of Heavy Metals in Fish and Associated Human Health Risk From the Omo Delta in Southern Ethiopia: A First-Hand Report
This study was the first to investigate the levels of heavy metals in commercially important fish species (Lates niloticus and Oreochromis niloticus) and the human health risk in Southern Ethiopia. Sixty fish samples were collected from the Omo delta. The target hazard quotient (THQ), hazard index (HI), and target cancer risk (TCR) were used to estimate the human health risks. The mean levels of heavy metals detected in the liver and muscle of Lates niloticus generally occurred in the order of Fe> Zn > Pb > Cu >Mn> Cr > Co > Ni and Fe > Pb > Zn >Mn > Cu > Co > Cr >Ni, respectively....

A Study on Environmental Impact of Slow Moving Electric Vehicles Using Microsimulation on Lucknow Urban Road With an On-Ramp
CONCLUSION: The study shows that the environmental benefits of E3Ws in a limited section of Lucknow road are offset by their low-speed capability. Hypothetical scenarios wherein Modified E3Ws and Electric Buses were introduced reported benefits both in terms of emissions and traffic performance.PMID:38495797 | PMC:PMC10943754 | DOI:10.1177/11786302241231706 (Source: Environmental Health Insights)
