Racism is not always conscious, explicit, or readily visible-often it is systemic and structural. Systemic and structural racism are forms of racism that are pervasively and deeply embedded in systems, laws, written or unwritten policies, and entrenched practices and beliefs that produce, condone, and perpetuate widespread unfair treatment and oppression of people of color, with adverse health consequences. Examples include residential segregation, unfair lending practices and other barriers to home ownership and accumulating wealth, schools' dependence on local property taxes, environmental injustice, biased policing and sentencing of men and boys of color, and voter suppression policies. This article defines systemic and structural racism, using examples; explains how they damage health through many causal pathways; and suggests approaches to dismantling them. Because systemic and structural racism permeate all sectors and areas, addressing them will require mutually reinforcing actions in multiple sectors and places; acknowledging their existence is a crucial first step.

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) is an international organization and the world’s largest and arguably most important conservation network. It was founded in Fontainebleau, France in 1948 and its headquarters is located in Gland, Switzerland. IUCN has offices in more than 45 countries and runs hundreds of projects around the world, including a multilateral office located in Washington, DC that serves as a global embassy for IUCN. It plays a critical role in the conservation of nature as a knowledge-producing organization (IUCN, UNEP & WWF 1980, 1991). Its vision is achieving a “world that values and conserves nature” and its mission is to influence, encourage, and assist societies throughout the world to conserve the integrity and diversity of nature and to ensure that any use of natural resources is equitable and ecologically sustainable. According to its official homepage, IUCN helps the world find pragmatic solutions to our most pressing environmental and development challenges. IUCN supports scientific research; manages field projects all over the world; and brings governments, nongovernmental organizations, United Nations agencies, companies, and local communities together to develop and implement policy, laws, and best practice. IUCN is a democratic membership union that includes 87 nation-states, 120 government agencies, and more than 821 nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). In addition it has 11 714 scientists and experts from 181 countries in its six commissions in a unique worldwide partnership. These are the Commission on Education and Communication (CEC, 625 members), Commission on Environmental, Economic and Social Policy (CEESP, 1061 members), Commission on Environmental Law (CEL, 800 members), Commission on Ecosystem Management (CEM, 400 members), Species Survival Commission (SSC, 7528 members), and World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA, 1300 members). These commissions contribute to the conservation of nature through action projects to research in their respective fields. In addition to these six major commissions, which include conservation-related international organizations, nongovernmental organizations, civil society organizations, academic institutions, indigenous groups, and individual conservation experts and activists, there are also several groups working in specific subfields. The IUCN Council is the principal governing body of IUCN in between sessions of the World Conservation Congress, the general assembly of the Union. The Council is responsible for oversight and general control of all the affairs of IUCN, subject to the authority of the World Conservation Congress. IUCN member organizations elect the Council every four years at the World Conservation Congress. Along with a President, Treasurer, and three representatives from each of the Union’s eight regions, the Council also includes the chairs of the six commissions. The Council functions in a similar way to a Board of Directors, meeting once or twice a year to direct Union policy, approve finances, and decide on strategy. The Council can appoint up to six additional Councilors. IUCN is a unique organization, formed by the secretariat, the members, and a diverse group of experts coming from various sectors. IUCN members (particularly commissions) hold different backgrounds. Most importantly, because of its working modality IUCN is not solely an international NGO, but it is also not an international governmental organization. That is, it follows the laws and regulations of member nations and does not work for or against particular national

Abstract Crystal Plasticity (CP) modeling is a powerful and well established computational materials science tool to investigate mechanical structure–property relations in crystalline materials. It has been successfully applied to study diverse micromechanical phenomena ranging from strain hardening in single crystals to texture evolution in polycrystalline aggregates. However, when considering the increasingly complex microstructural composition of modern alloys and their exposure to—often harsh—environmental conditions, the focus in materials modeling has shifted towards incorporating more constitutive and internal variable details of the process history and environmental factors into these structure–property relations. Technologically important fields of application of enhanced CP models include phase transformations, hydrogen embrittlement, irradiation damage, fracture, and recrystallization. A number of niche tools, containing multi-physics extensions of the CP method, have been developed to address such topics. Such implementations, while being very useful from a scientific standpoint, are, however, designed for specific applications and substantial efforts are required to extend them into flexible multi-purpose tools for a general end-user community. With the Dusseldorf Advanced Material Simulation Kit (DAMASK) we, therefore, undertake the effort to provide an open, flexible, and easy to use implementation to the scientific community that is highly modular and allows the use and straightforward implementation of different types of constitutive laws and numerical solvers. The internal modular structure of DAMASK follows directly from the hierarchy inherent to the employed continuum description. The highest level handles the partitioning of the prescribed field values on a material point between its underlying microstructural constituents and the subsequent homogenization of the constitutive response of each constituent. The response of each microstructural constituent is determined, at the intermediate level, from the time integration of the underlying constitutive laws for elasticity, plasticity, damage, phase transformation, and heat generation among other coupled multi-physical processes of interest. Various constitutive laws based on evolving internal state variables can be implemented to provide this response at the lowest level. DAMASK already contains various CP-based models to describe metal plasticity as well as constitutive models to incorporate additional effects such as heat production and transfer, damage evolution, and athermal transformations. Furthermore, the implementation of additional constitutive laws and homogenization schemes, as well as the integration of a wide class of suitable boundary and initial value problem solvers, is inherently considered in its modular design.

The open burning of plastic wastes is a practice that is highly prevalent across the globe, toxic to human and environmental health, and a critical — but often overlooked — aspect of plastic pollution. Most of the countries where such burning is widespread have laws and policies in place against it; open burning continues never-theless. In this article, using data from ethnographic fieldwork in urban and rural sites in India, Indonesia, the Philippines

As microplastic pollution has become an emerging environmental issue of global concern, microplastics in aquaculture have become a research hotspot. For environmental safety, economic efficiency and food safety considerations, a comprehensive understanding of microplastic pollution in aquaculture is necessary. This review outlines an overview of sources and effects of microplastics in aquaculture. External environmental inputs and aquaculture processes are sources of microplastics in aquaculture. Microplastics may release harmful additives and adsorb pollutants in aquaculture environment, cause deterioration of aquaculture environment, as well as cause toxicological effects, affect the behavior, growth and reproduction of aquaculture products, ultimately reducing the economic benefits of aquaculture. Microplastics entering the human body through aquaculture products also pose potential health risks at multiple levels. Microplastic pollution removal strategies used in aquaculture in various countries are also reviewed. Ecological interception and purification are considered to be effective methods. In addition, strengthening aquaculture management and improving fishing gear and packaging are also currently feasible solutions. As proactive measures, new portable microplastic monitoring system and remote sensing technology are considered to have broad application prospects. And it was encouraged to comprehensively strengthen the supervision of microplastic pollution in aquaculture through talent exchange and strengthening the construction of laws and regulations.

Abstract River networks are highly dynamic environments, where local conditions range from lotic to lentic, promoting the co-occurrence of highly diverse biota. These environments are threatened by various human-induced stressors, among which water scarcity affects more than half of all running waters globally. While flow intermittence occurs naturally, its spatial and temporal extension is spreading under climate change and human pressures, endangering river biota. Here, we performed a mesocosm study aiming to investigate how flow reduction during drying events affects macroinvertebrate communities from different mesoscale habitats, such as riffles and pools. The experiment was performed in a replicated flow-through mesocosm system during summer 2021. We tested the effects of both intermittent and prolonged three-month-long flow reduction on macroinvertebrate communities from riffle and pool mesohabitats in terms of community composition, and resilience and resistance functional traits (e.g., resistance form, current preference, locomotion, dispersal strategy, reproduction drift propensity, etc.). Sampling was performed before, during, and after the exposure to flow reduction to assess both the direct effect of water scarcity and the post-drought recovery of macroinvertebrate communities. We found that communities from riffle habitats were more severely affected by flow reduction during drying events, showing a more severe decline in taxonomic richness and reduced abundance of desiccation-sensitive organisms under prolonged flow reduction treatments compared to intermittent ones. During flow reduction events, we did not observe a consistent taxa turnover toward drought-tolerant taxa, with only a few resistance trait modalities (e.g., organisms with tolerance for higher water temperature or interstitial ones) significantly associated with prolonged flow reduction. Moreover, the communities from riffle mesohabitats did not fully recover even one month after normal flow conditions were re-established, showing a low post-drought resilience. In pool mesohabitats, we did not detect significant effects of intermittent or prolonged flow reduction, with a community composition dominated by generalist taxa. These findings highlight the importance of accounting for mesohabitat-specific responses to drying when evaluating the ecological consequences of increasing flow intermittence and suggest that habitat heterogeneity plays a critical role in shaping the resistance and resilience of macroinvertebrate communities under water scarcity.

Air pollution remains a major global issue that seriously impacts public health, environmental quality, and ultimately human health. To help monitor problem, we have created and constructed a low-cost, real-time, portable air quality monitoring system using cheap sensors. The system measures critical pollutants PM2.5, PM10, and carbon monoxide (CO), and environmental variables such as temperature and humidity. The system computes the Air Quality Index (AQI) and transmits the data via a Bluetooth connection. The data is relayed, in real time, to a mobile application. Because of its small size and low manufacturing cost the system readily lends itself to indoor and outdoor use and in urban and rural environments. In this paper we give an account of the system design, development, and validation, while demonstrating its accuracy and low-cost capabilities. We also consider its wider environmental, social, and regulatory implications with regards to; improving public awareness, being used for sustainability purposes and providing valuable information for informed decision making.
