From a global standpoint, the interplay between air quality and climate change represents a critical environmental issue, with profound implications for health, ecosystems, and economies across the planet. This chapter provides an in-depth analysis of the complex interplay between air pollution and climate change, examining their sources, impacts, and strategies for mitigation. It delves into the direct and indirect health effects of air pollutants and greenhouse gases, emphasizing the vulnerabilities of different populations.

This chapter includes a brief overview of the historical development of public health and the emergence of the planetary health movement. Since the 1960s, human behavior has been central to public health concerns and functions.

This chapter intends to systematize the trends and approaches that will inspire local policymaking in response to climate change challenges and to meet European guidelines and recommendations for sustainable development and quality of life improvement. The analysis explores relevant components for promoting health and sustainable behavior, namely smart living, smart health (as a part of the smart economy), and smart governance (i.e., participatory, anticipatory, and innovative).

Solar panels are a good alternative to fossil fuels. However, despite their numerous advantages, their most important limitation is dependence on environmental conditions. To solve this problem, energy storage systems are used with solar panels. To set a fixed output voltage requires designing a strong switching system to use stored energy when solar energy drops below the required value due to environmental conditions, and to store it in a storage system when there is a surplus of solar energy.

Rising human populations and energy demands have triggered the scientific community to explore renewable and sustainable energy sources, along with enhancing technologies associated with energy storage and electrocatalytic applications. Nanoclay has gained significant attention in recent years for various applications, of which energy storage and electrocatalytic applications are the most significant domains.

This study show receiving a BP improves childbirth experiences in women, increases women's participation in the labor process because of increased information and awareness, and strengthens their self-control and self-management.

This paper aims to extend the discussion on intersectionality by focusing on the intersection between gender and religiosity while addressing the main challenges which face young religious Jewish women in Israel who have chosen the STEM path.

Letter examines the right for women to make decisions that might be unpopular without having their mental health questioned.

The study explores the complexities Arab-Bedouin students face in balancing modern academic life with traditional societal norms, based on interviews with 30 students from education colleges in southern Israel.

Based on interviews with Israeli mothers during COVID, this article asks: What practices do mothers use to mark and erase their children's disabilities? What practices are marked as good mothering? How do these processes of marking and erasing negotiate classed ideals of normativity for children and mothers? The findings indicated that low-income mothers mark disability to acquire professional support for children's disabilities, claiming this as their ‘proper’ mothering role, whereas middle-class mothers erase disability through intensive mothering, marking it as theirs.
