Air pollution is a major problem particularly in an urban city
like Lagos, people are so nonchalant about issues related to the environment,
it is time we take the environment more seriously. There are serious health
implication if urgent action is not taken. I stumbled on this article by Chioma Obinna in
the Vanguard of May 13, 2016. Enjoy the read.
The
World Health Organisation, WHO, yesterday raised the alarm over urban air
pollution sustained rise at an alarming rate, saying that over 3 million
premature deaths are recorded worldwide every year.
The Global health body also warned that more than 80 percent of
people living in urban areas that monitor air pollution are exposed to air
quality levels that exceed WHO limits.
In its latest urban air quality database, WHO noted that while
all regions of the world are affected, populations in low-income cities are the
most impacted.
According to the report, 98 percent of cities in low- and middle
income countries with more than 100 000 inhabitants do not meet WHO air quality
guidelines.
The report which compared a total of 795 cities in 67 countries
for levels of small and fine particulate matter between 2008-2013 revealed that
global urban air pollution levels increased by 8 percent, despite improvements
in some regions.
The highest urban air pollution levels were experienced in
low-and middle-income countries in WHO's Eastern Mediterranean and South-East
Asia Regions, with annual mean levels often exceeding 5-10 times WHO limits,
followed by low-income cities in the Western Pacific Region.
"In
the African Region urban air pollution data remains very sparse, however
available data revealed particulate matter (PM) levels above the median. The
database now contains PM measurements for more than twice as many cities than
previous versions, the report disclosed.
Reacting to the report, WHO Director, Department of Public
Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health, Dr Maria Neira said:
"Urban air pollution continues to rise at an alarming rate, wreaking havoc
on human health."
Neira who noted that awareness is on the increase added that
when air quality improves, global respiratory and cardiovascular-related
illnesses will decrease.
"Most sources of urban outdoor air pollution are well
beyond the control of individuals and demand action by cities, as well as
national and international policymakers to promote cleaner transport, more
efficient energy production and waste management.
"More than half of the monitored cities in high-income
countries and more than one-third in low- and middle-income countries reduced
their air pollution levels by more than 5 percent in five years.
Neira
stressed that reducing industrial smokestack emissions, increasing use of
renewable power sources, like solar and wind, and prioritising rapid transit,
walking and cycling networks in cities are among the suite of available and
affordable strategies.
"It is crucial for city and national governments to make
urban air quality a health and development priority," WHO's Dr Carlos Dora
added.
Dora further stated that "when air quality improves, health
costs from air pollution-related diseases shrink, worker productivity expands
and life expectancy grows. Reducing air pollution also brings an added climate
bonus, which can become a part of countries' commitments to the climate treaty."
WHO Assistant-Director General, Family, Women and Children's
Health, Dr. Flavia Bustreo also stated that air pollution is a major cause of
disease and death.
According Bustreo, "It is good news that more cities are
stepping up to monitor air quality, so when they take actions to improve it
they have a benchmark. When dirty air blankets our cities the most vulnerable
urban populations--the youngest, oldest and poorest--are the most
impacted."
No surprise there.

A pest is any living organism which is invasive or prolific, detrimental, troublesome, noxious, destructive, a nuisance to either plants or animals, human or human concerns, livestock, human structures, wild ecosystems etc. It is a loosely defined term, often overlapping with the related terms vermin, weed, plant and animal parasites and pathogens. It is possible for an organism to be a pest in one setting but beneficial, domesticated or acceptable in another.
ReplyDeletePests often occur in high densities, making the damage they do even more detrimental
Often animals are derided as pests as they cause damage to agriculture by feeding on crops or parasitising livestock, such as codling moth on apples, or boll weevil on cotton. An animal could also be a pest when it causes damage to a wild ecosystem or carries germs within human habitats. Examples of these include those organisms which vector human disease, such as rats and fleas which carry the plague disease, mosquitoes which vector malaria, and ticks which carry Lyme disease.

The term pest may be used to refer specifically to harmful animals but is also often taken to mean all harmful organisms including weeds, plant pathogenic fungi and viruses. Pesticides are chemicals and other agents (e.g. beneficial micro-organisms) that are used to control or protect other organisms from pests. The related term vermin has much overlap with pest, but generally only includes those creatures that are seen to be vectors of diseases.
It is possible for an animal to be a pest in one setting but beneficial or domesticated in another (for example, European rabbits introduced to Australia caused ecological damage beyond the scale they inflicted in their natural habitat). Many weeds are also seen as useful under certain conditions, for instance Patterson's curse is often valued as food for honeybees and as a wildflower, even though it can poison livestock.

WHAT IS IPM?
ReplyDeleteIntegrated Pest Management (IPM), also known as Integrated Pest Control (IPC) is a broad-based approach that integrates practices for economic control of pests. IPM aims to suppress pest populations below the economic injury level (EIL).
The UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation defines IPM as "the careful consideration of all available pest control techniques and subsequent integration of appropriate measures that discourage the development of pest populations and keep pesticides and other interventions to levels that are economically justified and reduce or minimize risks to human health and the environment. IPM emphasizes the growth of a healthy crop with the least possible disruption to agro-ecosystems and encourages natural pest control mechanisms. Entomologists and ecologists have urged the adoption of IPM pest control since the 1970s. IPM allows for safer pest control. This includes managing insects, plant pathogens and weeds.
Globalization and increased mobility often allow increasing numbers of invasive species to cross national borders. IPM poses the least risks while maximizing benefits and reducing costs.
In conclusion, IPM extended the concept of integrated control to all classes of pests and was expanded to include all tactics. Controls such as pesticides were to be applied as in integrated control, but these now had to be compatible with tactics for all classes of pests. Other tactics, such as host-plant resistance and cultural manipulations, became part of the IPM framework. IPM combined entomologists, plant pathologists, nematologists and weed scientists.

IPM programs take advantage of all appropriate pest management strategies, including the judicious use of pesticides. Preventive pesticide application is limited because the risk of pesticide exposure may outweigh the benefits of control, especially when non-chemical methods provide the same results.
IPM is not a single pest control method but rather involves integrating multiple control methods based on site information obtained through:
• inspection.
• monitoring.
• reports.
Consequently, every IPM program is designed based on the pest prevention goals and eradication needs of the situation. Successful IPM programs use this four-tiered implementation approach:
• Identify pests and monitor progress.
•Set action threshholds.
•Prevent.

Integrated Pest management(IPM) can be defined as a means to reduce pest numbers to an acceptable threshold. An acceptable threshold, in most cases, refers to an economically justifiable threshold where application of pest control measures reduces pest numbers to a level below which additional applications would not be profitable (i.e., where additional costs of control exceed additional benefits). Pest eradication (i.e., complete removal) is usually not a viable option.
Methods of control can be categorized as chemical, biological, cultural, physical/mechanical, or genetic.

Integrated pest management (IPM) can be defined as an ecosystem-based strategy that focuses on long-term prevention of pests or their damage through a combination of techniques such as biological control, habitat manipulation, modification of cultural practices, and use of resistant varieties. Pesticides are used only after monitoring indicates they are needed according to established guidelines, and treatments are made with the goal of removing only the target organism. Pest control materials are selected and applied in a manner that minimizes risks to human health, beneficial and nontarget organisms, and the environment.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an increasingly popular process for controlling pests. IPM considers the ecosystem as a whole and takes into consideration a balanced mix of the aforementioned control methods to produce the most effective and least damaging plan. All the methods are mutually augmentative with chemical control means as the last resort in the plan. Ideally, an IPM plan would result in a sustainable system without need for much costly follow-up maintenance.

ReplyDelete(IPM) focuses on long-term prevention of pests or their damage by managing the ecosystem:- With (IPM), you take actions to keep pests from becoming a problem, such as by growing a healthy crop that can withstand pest attacks, using disease-resistant plants, or caulking cracks to keep insects or rodents from entering a building. Rather than simply eliminating the pests you see right now, using (IPM) means you'll look at environmental factors that affect the pest and its ability to thrive. Armed with this information, you can create conditions that are unfavorable for the pest.
In (IPM), monitoring and correct pest identification help you decide whether management is needed:- Monitoring means checking your field, landscape, forest, or building—or other site—to identify which pests are present, how many there are, or what damage they've caused. Correctly identifying the pest is key to knowing whether a pest is likely to become a problem and determining the best management strategy. After monitoring and considering information about the pest, its biology, and environmental factors, you can decide whether the pest can be tolerated or whether it is a problem that warrants control. If control is needed, this information also helps you select the most effective management methods and the best time to use them.

PEST AND PEST CONTROL [STB 212]
Integrated pest management (IPM), also known as integrated pest control (IPC) is a broad-based approach that integrates practices for economic control of pests. IPM aims to suppress pest populations below the economic injury level (EIL). The UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation defines IPM as "the careful consideration of all available pest control techniques and subsequent integration of appropriate measures that discourage the development of pest populations and keep pesticides and other interventions to levels that are economically justified and reduce or minimize risks to human health and the environment. IPM emphasizes the growth of a healthy crop with the least possible disruption to agro-ecosystems and encourages natural pest control mechanisms."[1] Entomologists and ecologists have urged the adoption of IPM pest control since the 1970s.[2] IPM allows for safer pest control.[clarification needed] This includes managing insects, plant pathogens and weeds.
IPM extended the concept of integrated control to all classes of pests and was expanded to include all tactics. Controls such as pesticides were to be applied as in integrated control, but these now had to be compatible with tactics for all classes of pests. Other tactics, such as host-plant resistance and cultural manipulations, became part of the IPM framework. IPM combined entomologists, plant pathologists, nematologists and weed scientists.
In the United States, IPM was formulated into national policy in February 1972 when President Richard Nixon directed federal agencies to take steps to advance the application of IPM in all relevant sectors. In 1979, President Jimmy Carter established an interagency IPM Coordinating Committee to ensure development and implementation of IPM practices.

Integrated post management(IPM) also know as Integrated pest control is preventive measure use to manage, control, suppress pest in order to remain within economic injurious level(EIL). Also a wide-based scope to prevent pest from permanent eradication otherwise lead to poor degradation of animal and cross. It is applicable in human habitation, agriculture, and horticulture.
