After two days of excavation, police in Dong Nai Province, Vietnam, had discovered more than 42 metric tons of hazardous waste at a lamp factory in the provincial capital.

The waste included more than 27 metric tons of contaminated glass pieces in the yard and nearly 15 metric tons of wastewater in a concrete cellar. Tests showed that the wastewater had a pH reading seven times the permitted level and that the glass pieces contained mercury and sulfur, which can become highly toxic if not handled properly.

Studies have found a link between low levels of magnesium, an essential mineral that is important for a wide range of bodily processes, and sleep disorders.

He noted that magnesium interacts with an important neurotransmitter that favors sleep.

Low-consumption office buildings with infrequent water use could have chemical and microbiological safety issues, according to a study published in PLOS Water by Andrew Whelton at Purdue University, Indiana, United States, and colleagues. The research could have implications for office buildings used less frequently during pandemic lockdowns, and suggests that regular water testing in commercial buildings may be needed.

The human body comprises around 60% water.

It’s commonly recommended that you drink eight 8-ounce (237-mL) glasses of water per day (the 8×8 rule).

Here are 7 evidence-based health benefits of drinking plenty of water.

1. Helps maximize physical performance

If you don’t stay hydrated, your physical performance can suffer.

This is particularly important during intense exercise or high heat.

High levels of ingested microplastics in the human body have the potential to have harmful effects, a new study reveals.

The research - the first of its kind to quantify the levels of microplastics which may lead to harmful effects in human cells - has been led by researchers at the Hull York Medical School and the University of Hull.

Water pollution occurs when a body of water becomes contaminated, usually by chemicals or microorganisms. Water pollution can cause water to become toxic to humans and the environment.

Water is an essential resource for all life on Earth. If a water source becomes contaminated due to pollution, it can lead to health issues in humans, such as cancer or cardiovascular conditions.

This article explores the causes of water pollution, how it can affect human health, and what people can do to help prevent it.

Data published for first time by Environment Agency shows 27% increase on previous year.

Water companies discharged raw sewage into rivers and coastal waters in England more than 400,000 times last year, Environment Agency (EA) data has revealed.

Untreated human effluent poured into rivers and seas for a total of 3.1m hours via storm overflow pipes that are supposed to be used only in extreme weather to relieve pressure in the sewage system.
