Environmental racism refers to how minority group neighborhoods — populated primarily by people of color and members of low-socioeconomic backgrounds — are burdened with disproportionate numbers of hazards including toxic waste facilitates, garbage dumps, and other sources of environmental pollution and foul odors that lower the quality of life. This can lead to different diseases and cancers. Because of this, as the fight with climate change worsens, minority communities will be disproportionally affected.

Awareness campaigns can address groups of people in a region affected by a particular climate threat, groups of stakeholders, businesses or the public in general. The ultimate aim of such campaigns is to achieve long-term lasting behavioural changes. Awareness raising increases the knowledge of individuals, business and industry managers, organisations and decision makers.... Awareness campaigns are considered more effective if several communication strategies are used, such as : dissemination of printed materials; organisation of public meetings and training; professional consultation; communication and information through social and mass-media, and use of informal networks for information dissemination.

Bronchiolitis obliterans is a serious, irreversible lung disease that is often caused by exposure to toxins; it can also develop after a lung or bone marrow transplant. Also known as obliterative bronchiolitis and "popcorn lung," it causes symptoms similar to those of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma, such as coughing and shortness of breath.

OBS

Bronchiolitis obliterans earned the nickname "popcorn lung" after an outbreak affected a group of people who worked in a popcorn production plant. The cause was traced to inhalation of diacetyl, a chemical that was used to give microwave popcorn its buttery flavor.

Systemic racism in Canada has affected... Black, Indigenous and people of colour(BIPOC), and for many[, it] has had a negative impact on their career pathways.

OBS

BIPOC: The abbreviation "BIPOC" is used to refer to people of colour and was designed to emphasize the particular experiences of Black people and Indigenous people with discrimination as contrasted with other non-white groups of people.

OBS

BIPOC: Although the abbreviation "BIPOC" is frequently used in verbal and written communication, its use is not accepted by all. Some people believe that it highlights the fact that the different groups named in the abbreviation have different experiences with discrimination, whereas others believe that it lumps together and blurs the distinct identities and experiences of these groups.

OBS

people of colour; non-white people: Some people prefer the term "people of colour" over "non-white people," or vice versa, for various reasons. For example, the term "people of colour" implies that "white" is not a colour, while the term "non-white people" implies that being white is the norm.

OBS

BIPOC: Since the abbreviation "BIPOC" refers to a grouping of people, expressions such as "BIPOC person" and "BIPOC people" are redundant and should be avoided.

CONT

Au Canada, le racisme systémique a touché les personnes autochtones, noires et de couleur (PANDC) et a eu une incidence négative sur le parcours professionnel d'un grand nombre d'entre elles.

OBS

PANDC : L'abréviation «PANDC» sert à désigner les personnes de couleur et a été conçue pour faire ressortir les expériences particulières vécues par les personnes noires et les Autochtones en matière de discrimination comparativement à d'autres groupes de personnes non blanches.

OBS

PANDC : Bien que l'abréviation «PANDC» soit fréquemment utilisée dans des communications verbales et écrites, son emploi ne fait pas l'unanimité. Certaines personnes croient qu'elle met en lumière le fait que les différents groupes nommés dans l'abréviation vivent des expériences différentes en matière de discrimination, alors que d'autres croient qu'elle regroupe et brouille les identités et les expériences distinctes de ces groupes.

OBS

PANDC : Puisque l'abréviation «PANDC» désigne un ensemble de groupes de personnes, son utilisation est redondante et est à éviter dans des expressions comme «personne PANDC» et «personnes PANDC».

The condition is "cryptogenic" because the cause is unknown, and "organizing" because it is an unresolved pneumonia. COP is only diagnosed when all other possible causes of pneumonia have been eliminated.

Becker dystrophy is like a less severe form of Duchenne dystrophy. Recently it was shown that DMD [Duchenne's muscular dystrophy] and BMD are due to defects of the same gene. The normal function of the gene is to enable muscle fibers to make a particular chemical substance, a protein called dystrophin. Muscle fibres in people affected with DMD are extremely deficient in dystrophin, in BMD the deficiency is less severe.

Case of inelastic derived demand. Suppose that a particular building-trades union, such as the electricians’, raises wages. This case emphasizes the factors making for inelastic demand and a small resulting drop in employment of electricians.(1) Note that in the short run, employers cannot substitute other factors-such as machines or plasterers-for electricians.(2) Do not forget the importance of being unimportant : The total cost of a house will be little affected by a change in the wage rate of electricians alone. This fact will tend to cause only a mild reduction of employment as a result of an increase in their wages.(3) Suppose there is a great housing shortage so that people feel they need homes desperately. Inelasticity of demand for the final product, housing, will lower the derived elasticity for electricians.(4) Suppose that all practicing electricians must be in the union, so that an increase in wages is not followed by a great increase in nonunion labor supplied. This inelasticity of supply of other factors will tend to make the demand for union electricians inelastic.(5) Suppose, finally, that administered pricing or public regulation will not permit the prices at which houses are available to change much. This will make for a little quantity of houses sold and hence inelastic demand for the factors that build house.
