Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), and perfluorooctanesulfonamide (PFOSA) has been reported to induce immunotoxicity, endocrine toxicity, and developmental toxicity. However, the associated mechanisms and induction of cardiotoxicity following PFASs exposure remains poorly understood. Here, we explored the cardiac toxicity and associated mechanism in zebrafish embryos after exposure to PFOA, PFOS, and PFOSA at 1 and 10 μg/L by RNA sequencing, morphological and physiological assessment, and behavioral alterations. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) was used to predict disease and functions following exposure and predicted that the cardiac system was significantly affected by these three PFASs. The upregulation of miR-16–5p was predicted to act as an upstream regulator and involved in PFAS-induced pericardial edema. Cardiac output, an abnormal cardiac morphology, and atrial natriuretic peptide content were significantly altered following PFASs exposure. Furthermore, behavioral-level alterations were seen following exposure to PFASs. Our results indicated that PFASs could induce cardiotoxicity in zebrafish during early life stage development, the toxicity of PFOA and PFOSA may induce a more severe response relative to PFOS at relatively high concentrations according to the PCA analysis of all the tested data.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101199,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Horizons","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100027"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772737822000220/pdfft?md5=5d0992f290491a837aaab5b2e299ac15&pid=1-s2.0-S2772737822000220-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74713280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In summer 2020, concurrent swelling wildfires and a sudden cold snap in the western U.S. killed a massive number of migratory birds. In August 2020, the hot and humid weather in response to the wildfire radiation and the oceanic evaporation could result in killing heat stress for migratory birds along the coastal shoreline, particularly in California. The heat and smoke of wildfires forced the migratory birds to abandon such feeding grounds towards inland regions, where water and food are naturally scarce, before being physiologically ready for their long-distance flyways. Then, a cold snap during 8–11 September in the Rocky Mountain states in the western U.S. urged those already weak migratory birds to fly southward before effectively recovering their physical and mental capabilities. This durable extreme starvation finally brought the skinny migrants low in the southwestern U.S. However, such ecological cascade effects of compound climate risks have rarely been acknowledged as a serious threat to migratory birds’ conservation in both scientific literature and ecosystems’ management practice. To improve our chances of saving birds’ biodiversity on Earth, hence, conscious policies and sustained efforts must immediately be arranged through SDG 13 (“Climate Actions”) based on scientific evidence and knowledge.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101199,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Horizons","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100023"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772737822000189/pdfft?md5=d2111cfd5fd564be6d87645ea49ff273&pid=1-s2.0-S2772737822000189-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73149744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we identify challenges facing to energy intensiveness of plastic production, land use crisis for biomass production, and non-renewable energy use and global warming potential on the life cycle of plastics, and we propose a material lifecycle perspective for bioplastics. Our estimate shows that an average of about 13.8 exajoule (EJ), ranging from 10.9 to 16.7 EJ, of fossil-fuel energy consumed in 2019 was diverted to fossil-fuel feedstock for the production of plastics worldwide, this translates between 2.8 and 4.1% share of the total consumed fossil-fuel energy globally. The life cycle analysis estimate shows that bioplastics produced from 2nd generation feedstock have 25% less NREU than that of 1st generation, while the bioplastics from 1st generation feedstock required about 86% less NREU than that of petrochemical plastics. Similarly, the estimates of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions show that the reduction of GHG emission was about 187% more in biomass feedstock than that of petrochemical plastics. We conclude by presenting strategies for improving the recyclability of biological plastics through polymer design, application biotechnology, and by adopting a circular bio-based economy.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101199,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Horizons","volume":"2 ","pages":"Article 100016"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772737822000116/pdfft?md5=ba091a6fb017bbe95871083900ae57ff&pid=1-s2.0-S2772737822000116-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74119769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, many studies only focused on the MSWM system in the urban area, whereas the MSWM system in counties has not been systematically reported in China previously. In this work, we developed an indicator system based on the widely accepted “Wasteaware” benchmark indicator framework, consisting of four dimensions (resource value, environmental impact, economic feasibility, and social aspect) to assess the sustainability of the MSWM system in China from 1980 to 2019.

So far, CLs have used biomass losses as forest-health indicator in experimental research. Ozone-induced biomass losses of adult forests, however, are difficult to assess. We stress a need to reconcile present CLs and dose-response functions to estimate O<sub>3</sub>-induced biomass losses. In fact, a clear discrepancy emerges when comparing CL exceedances calculated from WRF-Chem results and biomass losses estimated based on the presently available dose-response functions for different forest types. We synthesize recent evidence that visible foliar O<sub>3</sub> injury (VFI) recorded annually in large-scale forest surveys may be used as forest-health indicator and coupled with active O<sub>3</sub> monitoring in setting epidemiology-based CLs for forest protection. Bridging experimental and monitoring research is needed for validation and parameterization of field results and models, with the O<sub>3</sub> free-air controlled exposure (FACE) facilities as a reliable experimental tool. In fact, VFI is well correlated to O<sub>3</sub>-induced biomass loss at O<sub>3</sub> FACE experiments, and POD1 and O<sub>3</sub> tolerance (when characterized as leaf mass per area (LMA) directly affect VFI under field conditions. POD1 shows a much stronger causality than the O<sub>3</sub> exposure index AOT40 in affecting VFI. Accurate calculation of PODy at field sites is now possible, thanks to recent technological advances that support low-cost and reliable monitoring of PODy at forest sites and thus ensure long-term sustainability of such laborious monitoring. We summarise evidence that active O<sub>3</sub> monitoring is a cost-effective approach for estimating PODy and its economic effects on forests, as the initial investment is compensated in few years by less travels to the field sites than passive O<sub>3</sub> monitoring. These results respond to raising legislative interest into PODy, and support long-term sustainability of PODy monitoring at forest sites.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101199,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Horizons","volume":"2 ","pages":"Article 100018"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S277273782200013X/pdfft?md5=50fdca1a423e36e691674b5729e7edb3&pid=1-s2.0-S277273782200013X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79931181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
