Title A name given to the resource <h2>Outdoor air pollution: assessing the environmental burden of disease at national and local levels</h2> Subject The topic of the resource This 62-page guide is available in English and is intended for intermediate level public health professionals and environmental health specialists. This guide outlines a method for quantifying selected health impacts associated with outdoor air pollution. Such an estimate can be performed at the level of a country or city, according to locally available exposure and health data, and can be used as input to decision-making regarding for example transport options or standard setting in air quality. The following health outcomes are considered in this guide: adult cardiovascular diseases and lung cancer associated with long-term exposure to PM2.5, all-cause mortality for all ages associated with short-term exposure to PM10, and infant and childhood mortality from respiratory diseases associated with PM10 exposure. Outdoor air pollution has been associated with many more health outcomes, for example asthma exacerbation. However the evidence is currently not sufficient to make recommendations for quantitative methods that are applicable at global level. The guide reviews the scientific evidence for the effects of air pollution on both mortality and morbidity. It summarizes the steps for calculating the disease burden, discusses associated uncertainties and illustrates the method using a step-by-step numerical example for Bangkok, Thailand.

Title A name given to the resource <h2>Outdoor residential misting systems (including mosquito misting systems)</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>This fact sheet is available in English. It provides safety awareness information to those who use or plan to use residential misting systems. An increasing number of households have purchased timed-release outdoor residential misting systems to control mosquitoes and other insects around the home. However, advertisers, the media, and other sources sometimes provide information about misting systems that is difficult to understand or might conflict with other information. This fact sheet page will help consumers: decide if residential pesticide misting systems are appropriate for their home; understand safety precautions about using outdoor misting systems; find related information on Integrated Pest Management -- using a variety of methods for mosquito control; understand the role of the US EPA and state agencies in regulating misters.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/factsheets/misting_systems.htm" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/factsheets/misting_systems.htm</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
