Environmental Science Discussion 1

/in /by

500 word minimum discussion .

 

you-tube videos this week that speaks to the health of our generation and the desperate need for primary prevention and public health intervention. It still puzzles me that every year we seem to have this conversation as to our nation’s health but very little gets done on the federal and local level. Nevertheless, I usually begin our discussions series in this course by asking two important questions in hopes of eliciting your perspectives and understanding of what public health is and what it means to you.

In 1995, President Bill Clinton designated the first full week in April [National Public Health Week] to focus on prevention and interventions to improve the nation’s health. This is a goal that has continued steadily long after his presidency. Former President Clinton has long recognized that public health was more than a science of protecting and improving the health of communities through education, promotion of healthy lifestyles, and research for disease and injury prevention. He stressed that as a nation we have to become empowered and engaged to bear witness to these health issues with deep compassion no matter what. This is such an important issue now more than ever because what if in just one generation, America’s health system ranking improves from 37th to first? If we each commit to promoting good health in our own homes and communities, the effort of solving some of these problems will be seen and felt nationwide.

Watch these three videos to learn more about your role in public health and discuss clearly what does it mean to YOU:

Unit VII Case Study Safety Plan

Consider the following scenario.

    You are the safety and occupational health professional for your city’s health department. You received a call from a major food-distribution warehouse about some employees who are complaining of dizziness and feeling sick.

    The scene is a very large warehouse; a significant portion is refrigerated. The illnesses are being reported from a refrigerated section (about 40 degrees F), where workers are blister packing food products on a production line. The warehouse has 20 loading docks, two railroad car lines that end directly inside the warehouse (in close proximity to the production area), a dozen or so gas powered forklifts, and no sensors or environmental monitors of any kind except those associated with the refrigeration systems.

    The warehouse manager is cooperative, but he points out that he is in the middle of contract negotiations with the union. He is also very proud of the fact that they have special seals on the loading dock doors and throughout the warehouse to keep the cold in and the heat out.

    You cannot identify any discernible odors other than the exhaust from the forklifts when they move by you. There are four women waiting for you in the break room complaining of dizziness and lightheadedness. They are all comparing and complaining about their symptoms. There are 14 employees who work in this area of the warehouse: 12 women and 2 men.

    Instructions: Based on the given scenario, develop a plan of action that includes how you would conduct the investigation, how you would identify possible sources of the problem, and your opinion on the likely source.

    Discuss the standards applicable to possible sources. Include several recommendations you would make to the manager to help solve the problem based on your research into documented best practices for similar situations. Note: You may make assumptions about the scenario in order to propose solutions (be certain to state your assumptions clearly).

    Your Case Study must be four to six pages in length, double spaced. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.

Assignment Details

Reflect back on the lessons from this session. In Unit 1, you looked at ecosystems and considered what would happen if even one key component were impacted by a disturbance. In Unit 2, you compared living conditions, the spread of disease, and the availability of food in developing and developed countries. In Unit 3, you looked at the contribution of burning fossil fuels to greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere. Then in Unit 4, you considered the issues surrounding air pollution, among others. All of these topics relate to the disturbances and predicted impacts of global climate change.

For this discussion, you will consider the effect of a changing climate on one of the topics listed below. Use this article as your starting point: Effects of Global Warming.

Recommended: Click on the following links to review materials to enhance your knowledge of ecosystems, disturbance, and recovery:

Choose ONE aspect of the environment that is impacted by climate change (from the 3 listed below: A, B, or C), and answer the 2 questions associated with the topic you chose: 

  • Species extinction and habitat loss 
    1. Explain how climate change impacts vulnerable species or results in the spread of invasive species. 
    2. Explain how these changes will affect food webs.
  • Human health, agriculture, and infrastructure 
    1. Explain how changing weather patterns affect food production, the spread of disease or damage to homes, transportation, or the electric grid. 
    2. Discuss increases in pollution as a result of global warming.
  • Water, melting ice caps, and rising sea levels
    1. Explain how global warming is affecting ice caps and the impact to further warming. 
    2. Discuss the rise of sea level and saltwater intrusion and how eroding coastlines affect human activities and ecosystems.

Select at least three articles or documents on the incident that you chose to analyze. 

 

 

 

Case Study: The Underwear Bomber
The purpose of this assignment is to review the 2009 “Underwear Bomber” case and evaluate the implications for airport security measures. 

Write short answers to the following questions. (A few sentences for each question is sufficient.)

 

 

 

Reading 
Bullock, J. A., Haddow, G.D., & Coppola, D. P. (2013). Introduction to homeland security (4th ed.). Burlington, MA: Elsevier. 
Read Chapter 7: Transportation Safety and Security 

View Presentation: Case Study: The Underwear Bomber 
Center for Homeland Defense and Security. 
Description: 
The Case of the Underwear Bomber, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab’s failed attempt to blow up a passenger plane on Christmas Day, 2009, is chiefly remembered as a shocking demonstration of the aviation system’s vulnerability. Eight years and billions of dollars after 9/11, a single man was able to defeat security and bring a bomb onto a commercial airliner, very nearly destroying it and killing 300 innocent travelers. The primary lessons learned are (were) that that the nation must improve intelligence coordination and upgrade security technology at airport checkpoints. Rather than look at situations from “Outside-In” – starting from where you are and working towards the danger you are trying to avoid – this module suggests that instead you reverse-engineer backwards from the worst-case scenario, trying to take away critical elements that might expose new ways of defeating security. This risk management approach is termed by Kip Hawley, former Administrator for the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), as “Inside-Out” Risk Management. Lecture 

a.) How did the would-be bomber successfully pass through airport security?

b.) Why was the attack unsuccessful?

c.) What lessons for improving airport security may be drawn from this case?

d.) Contrast the “Outside-In” and “Inside-Out” approaches to planning for transportation security. How might these approaches apply to other modes of transportation (such as by rail or ship)?
