Habitat de Gorditos- Obesidad en Coahuila
2008-04-10 00:39:00 Crédito fotografia: Hector Raul Gonzalez En los albores del siglo pasado, las disciplinas de salud pública y planeación urbana estaban Ãntimamente relacionadas. Los médicos y los planificadores hacÃan equipo, intercambiaban información y compartÃan proyectos. La construcción de la red de drenaje es tan solo un ejemplo de muchas iniciativas que cumplieron el doble propósito de mejorar la vida urbana y reducir la incidencia de epidemias. Sin embargo, algo cambió radicalmente en la época moderna. Hoy, los esfuerzos de ambas disciplinas parecen confrontarse. Por ejemplo, la prioridad otorgada a la construcción de infraestructura para el automóvil va en contra del esfuerzo del sector salud de reducir la obesidad. Los permisos otorgados para edificar desarrollos masivos de vivienda en lugares donde no hay supermercados, lleva a sus ocupantes a construir su dieta a base de tacos y Gansitos. La inseguridad y la falta de inversión en espacios públicos (ejemplificada por...

Historic Habitat Houses
2008-03-08 07:40:00 Thanks to a reader who sent me this interesting article from USA Today "In Savannah, aesthetics, assistance work well together" regarding Habitat for Humanities attempts to build a house that fits into the historic neighborhood."In short, the program hopes to promote low-income housing in historic neighborhoods by building homes that fit architecturally into the surrounding community." and "the goal is to have people feel that their house fits into the neighborhood, so they feel part of the neighborhood, too."To do so they have developed, in conjunction with the Institute of Classical Architecture & Classical America, a Pattern Book for Neighborly Houses.Interesting except from the ICACA web page: "The strength of our democracy is based on individual economic achievement and social mobility.

Report reveals 'alarming' rate of mangrove habitat loss
2008-02-01 15:44:00 Mangrove ecosystems should be better protected, the UN's food agency has warned as it published new figures showing that 20% of the world's mangrove area has been destroyed since 1980A study by the Rome-based Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) said that the environmental and economic damages caused by the "alarming" loss of mangroves in many countries should be urgently addressed.Countries must engage in more effective conservation and sustainable management of the world's mangroves and other wetland ecosystems, it warned, ahead of World Wetlands day tomorrow.The world has lost around 3.6m hectares (20%) of mangroves since 1980, the report showed.The total mangrove area has declined from 18.8m ha (46.4m acres) in 1980 to 15.2m ha (37.5m acres) in 2005. However the report did show that there has been a slowdown in the rate of mangrove loss: from some 187,000 ha destroyed annually in the 1980s to 102,000 ha a year between 2000 and 2005. This reflected an increased awareness of...
