Water security is one of the defining challenges of our time. By the middle of the next century, over 40% of the global population will live under severe water stress. As global population increases, so will tensions among different water uses. This challenging outlook on water security, together with an increased severity in floods and droughts brought about by climate change, is an urgent call for better managing water risks, including water shortages, excesses, pollution, and other risks to freshwater systems (rivers, lakes, aquifers). The key lies in adopting an approach based on knowing, targeting, and managing water risks.

Quality And Performance Of Sliced Shook From Small Ponderosa Pine Logs
To determine whether sliced shook from small pine logs is suitable for the manufacture of fruit containers, a quantity of small ponderosa pine logs were heated in water and steam and sliced into side, bottom, and top slats for citrus fruit boxes. The shook was dried in a veneer drier and in a kiln, and the effect of the heating and drying methods on quality was determined.
The sliced shook was made up into citrus boxes that were compared in rough-handling tests with boxes made from sawn slats obtained from the same type of log.

Giving Safety Talks A Guide For The Construction Sector
Introduction and Importance
Biohazardous infectious material contains organisms that can cause diseases such as HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis B, and Salmonella in humans or animals. These materials are usually found in hospitals and laboratories. However, you could! nd them at work. Universal Precautions are guidelines to help protect you from exposure to infectious diseases spread by blood or body fluids.
Consequences
Biohazardous infectious materials can cause AIDS, hepatitis, or other diseases. 157 disabling injury claims took place in 2007 – primarily in the Health Care profession. Procedure/Practice
If your work requires you to handle biohazardous infectious materials, ask your supervisor for training so you understand the hazards, roles, responsibilities, and regulations you are to follow. Wear the proper PPE as every tissue or fluid is to be considered dangerous. Make sure you have a tetanus immunization every 10 years. Trash bins in the Health & Safety department may contain infectious materials. Be careful in this area.

Process Safety Management (PSM)
This standard contains requirements for preventing or minimizing the consequences of catastrophic releases of chemicals that are:
- Toxic,
– Reactive,
– Flammable,
– Explosive
▪ These releases may result in toxic, fire, or explosion hazards
▪ A number of catastrophic accidents have occurred resulting in loss of life and great property damage.

Water Safety Plan Manual
Introduction
The most effective means of consistently ensuring the safety of a drinking-water supply is through the use of a comprehensive risk assessment and risk management approach that encompasses all steps in water supply from catchment to consumer. In these Guidelines, such approaches are called water safety plans (WSPs)”.
