 Barcelona has revealed plans to turn large parts of the city green.


linia3

The municipality announced a significant urban greening programme in May, which involves a doubling of the number of trees in the city, and an increase in the area covered by parks — some 100 football fields by 2019 (108 acres) and over 400 by 2030.
 The aim is to reduce the high temperatures that the city experiences during summer.
Most of Barcelona’s cooling green space is situated in the hills to the west of the city, rather than in the streets below, which can result in a difference of seven degrees celsius.

Although space is tight, the city is planning five new gardens, linked to existing green spaces with avenues of trees. Temporary gardens will spring up on sites marked for construction, roads will be buried and parking space turned over for more green areas.

As part of the urban greening plan, the city is providing 50 bursaries of €1,500 to develop green roofs. The best ten green roof suggestions could receive as much as €100,000 each.

BARCELLONA HA MOSTRATO DEI PROGETTI PER RENDERE PIU' VERDI GRANDI ZONE DELLA CITTA’

Il Comune ha annunciato un significativo ‘Greening Programme’ urbano a maggio. Esso comporta un raddoppiamento del numero degli alberi della città ed un aumento dell’area coperta da parchi -100 campi da calcio entro il 2019 (108 acri) e più di 400 entro il 2030. Lo scopo è quello di ridurre le temperature elevate che la città subisce d’estate.

Gran parte delle aree verdi di Barcellona sono situate nella zona delle colline, verso l’ovest della città più che nelle strade sottostanti. Tali zone hanno uno sbalzo di temperatura di 7 gradi Celsius.

Sebbene lo spazio sia ristretto, la città sta programmando 5 giardini nuovi, collegati agli spazi verdi già esistenti da strade di alberi. Giardini provvisori nasceranno nei siti destinati alla costruzione di palazzi, verranno costruite case ed aree di parcheggio diventeranno aree più verdi.


In quanto parte del ‘Greening Plan’, la città sta mettendo a disposizione 50 borse di studio dal valore di 1500 euro per sviluppare i ‘Green Roofs’, i tetti verdi. I migliori tetti verdi potrebbero ricevere 100.000 euro ciascuno.

BIOCIDES and THYROID CANCER

The association between  occupational exposure to biocides and pesticides through a job-exposure matrix and thyroid cancer was examined by some researchers using data from a population-based case-control study involving 462 incident thyroid cancer cases and 498 controls in Connecticut collected in 2010-2011. It was observed that individuals ever-exposed to biocides had a high risk of thyroid cancer  ( OR=2.18, 95% Cl 1.28 to 3.73) No significant association between occupational exposure and cancer was found.

Is Botox able to help with depression? Consequently used for Occupational Medicine ?

·                                    Is Botox able to help with depression? Consequently used for Occupational Medicine ? The idea that Botox (botulinum toxin A) could help with  depression is being explored by, Allergan, despite the latest  trial showing patchy results. Based on the “facial feedback” hypothesis, which holds that  facial movement can influence emotional experience,  Allegan  is hopeful the drug’s anti-wrinkle and anti-frowning  formula can  be used to improve mood. Anecdotal evidence suggests Botox is already used off-label  for this purpose. Yet results from a phase II study of almost 260 patients show  that Botox is unable to meaningfully reduce depression after  six weeks compared with placebo. ...
