الوصف: This report describes the application of a new mixed-integer linear programming model of the power sector that accounts for water used for thermal cooling. The model is used to explore a series of scenarios for each of four case studies—the North Grid of China, India, France, and the state of Texas in the United States. For each case study we developed a baseline projection, then modeled a number of scenarios, including limits on water availability, reduced power demand from end-use energy efficiency, expansion of renewable energy, and carbon caps. We provide model output, including water withdrawals and consumption; power generation fuel mix; carbon dioxide emissions; and total system, fixed, and variable costs.

الوصف: Malnutrition remains the world’s most serious health problem and the single biggest contributor to child deaths. It is time to restore the bridge between agriculture and health. FAO’s Member Countries and its development partners are calling for a more incisive analysis of the causes of persistent hunger and malnutrition, a better understanding of how they can be addressed, and practical action to ensure the nutrition, health and well-being of present and future generations. This paper is intended as a contribution to that discussion. ; sustainable Nutrition, Nutrition Security, Agriculture, Health, FAO, malnutrition, health problems, hunger, micronutrient deficiencies, Agriculture, gender, agricultural production, food-based nutrition concept.
