...Abstract: The city of La Oroya’s, population is about 35,000 residents whose economy depends on one company Doe Run, that is creating health and environmental problems all around its surroundings, by releasing poisonous chemicals such as lead, sulfur dioxide, arsenic, cadmium, antimony, copper, and zinc. The environment is suffering the consequences from the emissions of smelter that causes acid rain and makes it almost impossible for vegetation to survive and animals to feed themselves. In addition, the smelter emits heavy black smoke consisting of “1.5 tons of lead and 810 tons of sulfur dioxide on a daily basis,” (Salazar, 1) into to the atmosphere. This kind of air pollution affects 99% of children since they are under the age of six and are still developing physically and mentally; this includes pregnant women. As a result, parents are faced with difficult decision between their child’s health and having job to survive. Several programs such as “Program of Adaptation and Environmental Handling” have been put into place to help reduce the detrimental effect air pollution has on La Oroya’s residents. ________________________________________ Since 1922, the adults and children in the small mining town of La Oroya have “been exposed to toxic emissions emitted from the local factory that specializes in poly-metallic-smelter,” (Blacksmith Institute, 21). What are the toxic substances? Located in the Peruvian Andes, roughly 112 miles from Lima, La Oroya is considered one...

...materials produced by various activities of the society, which have lost their value to the first user. Improper disposal of solid wastes pollutes all the vital components of the living environment (i.e., air, land and water) at local and global levels. There has been a significant increase in MSW (municipal solid waste) generation in India in the last few decades. This is largely because of rapid population growth and economic development in the country. Due to rapid growth of urban population, as well as constraint in resources, the management of solid waste poses a difficult and complex problem for the society and its improper management gravely affects the public health and degrades environment. The population of Mumbai grew from around 8.2 million in 1981 to 12.3 million in 1991, registering a growth of around 49%. On the other hand, MSW generated in the city increased from 3200 ton per day to 5355 ton per day in the same period registering a growth of around 67% (CPCB 2000). This clearly indicates that the growth in MSW in our urban centers has outpaced the population growth in recent years. This trend can be ascribed to our changing lifestyles, food habits, and change in living standards. Waste referred as rubbish, trash, garbage, or junk is unwanted or unusable material. According to European councils’ directive “Waste is any substance or object which the holder discards or intends or is required to discard." Waste if it is hazardous or toxic, it could even be a harbinger of...

...Does anyone ever think about what they’ve flushed down their toilet or rinsed down the sink? While looking at many of the current articles related to environmental health, I’ve learned that we, as a whole, are ruining our water supplies for the future. We have continuously flushed whatever we don’t want to deal with into our sewer systems. The toxins, mostly from cleaning supplies and body treatment products are being reintroduced into our water sources. The waste water treatment facilities are efficient in removing the organic waste from the water supply, but they are not active in removing chemicals, and nutrients from the water table. I would like to discuss a few things that everyone should know about our waste water treatment facilities and what we can do to protect ourselves from being poisoned by our tap water. First, I would like to go over a few of the intricacies of our wastewater facility in Chillicothe. Second, I am going to discuss the chemicals, nutrients, and hormones that are occurring in our supply water due to the lack of regulations and filtration of our wastewater facilities. Third, I am going to discuss a few ideas that may aid the problem. Let me begin by first describing the waste water treatment process in our Chillicothe area. The Easterly Chillicothe Waste Water Treatment Facility is the subject of my studies because it affects most of us here today. Waste water is drained into the sewer by everyone living in the eastern side of the city....

...is shown above. In some models, the product is shipped from the Manufacturer to the Distribution Center as soon as it is manufactured. In other models, such as a Hub & Spoke model, the product is held at the manufacturer once produced. It is then sent out to the Distribution Center only when it is needed. OBJECTIVES OF SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT: The fundamental objective is to "add value". That brings us to the example of the fish fingers. During the Supply Chain Management '98 conference in the United Kingdom this fall, a participant in a supply chain management seminar said that total time from fishing dock through manufacturing, distribution, and final sale of frozen fish fingers for his European grocery-products company was 150 days. Manufacturing took a mere 43 minutes. That suggests an enormous target for supply chain managers. During all that time, company capital is-- almost literally in this...

...accounted for 46.10% of the Greater Accra’s Population. The past decades have seen solid waste management present a major challenge to the Accra Metropolitan Assembly, and many other municipal, and district assemblies in Ghana. Waste generation in Accra is estimated to have increased over three-fold in quantum over the last two decades due to population growth, increased urbanization, and life-style changes (WaterAid & EU, 2008). The population in urban areas like Accra is projected to double within the next decade (WaterAid & EU, 2008), a tendency that could see the quantum of waste generated, and for that matter plastic waste sky-rocket. Considering the anticipated population growth in the near future, and urbanization, strategizing the solution for effective and efficient solid waste management in Accra is not negotiable. The subject of solid waste management of which plastics are a greater component is critical in low-income areas, which particularly are vulnerable to the negative effects of a poorly managed metropolitan solid waste management. In an attempt to curb the waste canker in the metropolis, the Accra Metropolitan Assembly has recently embarked on waste incineration projects as a capable means to minimize the city waste, but the fundamental step in determining appropriate metropolitan solid waste management is first, having detailed and accurate data on quantity and composition of waste to draw upon for the purpose of planning. The importance of data on solid waste...
