Abstract To address the frequent emergence of ecological problems, ecology has intersected with various disciplines. From the perspective of linguistic ecology, ecological literacy is an important concept that combines the two subjects. It not only discusses ecological issues, but also establishes a linguistic framework. Here, we constructed a quantitative method of assessing ecological literacy from the perspective of linguistic ecology. Ecological literacy was divided into five parts: ecological knowledge literacy, ecological awareness literacy, ecological ethics literacy, ecological emotional literacy, and ecological behavioral literacy. Each of these was set with four quantitative indicators that were evaluated through eight questions. A case study was conducted to investigate the ecological literacy of the inhabitants of Guiyang City, one of China’s top ten ecologically advanced cities. The results showed that the proposed assessment method was an effective way to evaluate the level of ecological literacy comprehensively. In the case analysis, the levels of the five specific dimensions of Guiyang inhabitants in descending order were as follows: ecological ethics literacy, ecological emotional literacy, ecological awareness literacy, ecological knowledge literacy, and ecological behavioral literacy. The results of this study are conducive to the production of targeted ways to improve the level of ecological literacy for sustainable development.

Ecological problems are considered one of the most important problems of the globalized world in the article. It’s noticed that the negative attitude of the population to the environment causes to creating available problems. Therefore, it must be paid special attention to the ecological education among children and students at school and preschool educational institution. Everybody must get knowledge on ecology must form ecological worldview at the separate stages of education ecological discipline must be actualized. Forming responsibility feeling to the nature on pupils is given priority. Teachers form such an opinion on pupils that knowing Chemistry it`s possible to organize the product that doesn’t damage the environment in a word a wasteless technology. The regular attitude to the environment is formed as a result of ecological knowledge. Because of this it must be ecological knowledge, ecological culture and ecological ethics. It’s important to bring up people who have ecological worldview for eliminating ecological problems. Different methods must be applied for complete explaining of the ecological problems to pupils. Pupils must be informed about the sources which pollute the environment, the pollutant which spreads on the biosphere from the sources, their effect on human body, flora and fauna and the ecological problems of the region. First it must pay more attention to practical experiences together with provided child’s psychological features for forming ecological worldview on pupils. The world’s scientists’ thinking about eliminating ways of the deplanement that climate changes create are given priority. Here the main purpose is to minimize the damages of Climate changes to the environment and anthropogenic effect. Many matters are implemented in the direction of saving global climate all over the world. The reasons of terrible and tragic diseases that are cured for a long time (COVID, Aids, bird flu, swine influenza, hepatitis and etc.), genetic diseases that are observed among children (thalassemic, hemophilia, immune deficiency), dead and early birth of children that worry humanity and the world scientists are considered as the main problem.

Abstract: This study was intended to investigate universality reality in Islamic perspective, the development of theo-ecological culture at school, and its implementation of ecological education at school. This study was conducted in qualitative approach in case study method. This research was conducted at State Islamic Elementary School (Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Negeri) Tegalsari, Blitar, Indonesia. The objects of this study were the universality reality, the development of theo-ecological culture and ecological based education. The school headmaster, the vice headmaster, the teachers and the school committee were the subjects of the study. The data collection methods were in-depth interviews, and observation. Data validity was checked through credibility, transferability, dependability, and conformability techniques. Through four steps, validity was taken to ensure data confirmation. The data analysis consisted of data display, conclusion drawing, and verification. The article findings show that the creation of the universe has duality, ideasionality and theology. Therefore, human beings as the caliphs in the earth need to develop in themselves the ecological ethics. In addition, it was found that the development of ecological awareness at school was done through the processes of arranging the program main team, optimizing tasks and functions of internal and external school elements, and evaluating the program incidentally and regularly. Finally, the ecological education was implemented by teaching it as a local content subject as well as integrating it with other subjects.الملخص:هذا البحث يهدف أن يحلل عناصرا ;أولا مظاهر العالم من ناحية الإسلام, ثانيا ثقافة البيئة الدينية فى المدرسة و ثالثا تطبيق بيئة الحياة فيها.يختار الباحث مكان البحث هو المدرسة تاجال ساري (Tegalasri)  ولينجي(Wlingi)باليتار(Blitar) الإبتدائية الإسلامية الحكومية. يظهر هذا البحث بحثا كيفيا بجنس دراسة الحالة. موضوعه يحتوى مظاهر العالم و تثقيف البيئة الدينية و تطبيق التدريس نحو بيئة الحياة. مصادر الحقائق الرئيسي فيه رئيس المدرسة و وكيله و المدرسون ولجنة المدرسة. طريقة جمع الحقائق المستخدمة هي الوثائق و الملاحظة, و تحليلها بتقديم الحقائق والخلاصة و التثبيت ,و تفتيشها بصدوقة الحقائق و تحولها و ثقتها وثبوتها. يحصل هذا البحث ;اولا يبدع المدرسة بحالات العالم فيها حالة ثنائية و مثالية و دينية, هذا يجرى بأن يخلق الله الناس خليفة الأرض, عليهم أن يلازموا تطوير بيئة الحياة. ثانيا يبدع ثقافة بيئة الحياة بتصميم هيئة المنهج البئوي, وهي تكمل أعمال عناصر المدرسة خارجيا و داخليا و تقويم فى الوقت الحاضر والوقت المكتوب. ثالثا تطبيق تربية بيئة الحياة باضافة درسا خاصا عنها واتحد ماديتها فى كل دروس.Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui realitas kesemestaan dalam perspektif Islam, pengembangan budaya teo-ekologi di sekolah, dan pelaksanaan pendidikan ekologi di sekolah.

Literasi ekologi sosial Islam adalah interaksi manusia dengan lingkungan alam, teknologi, dan sosial yang didasarkan pada prinsip dasar Islam. Rekonstruksi literasi ekologi sosial Islam yang bisa direkonstruksi adalah prinsip dasar Islam yang menegaskan posisi manusia sebagai “pemimpin” yang diberi “amanah” untuk mengelola “bumi” atau “lingkungan alam dan sumber daya alam” sebaik-baiknya. Rekonstruksi literasi ekologis inilah yang kemudian akan diaktualisasikan pada masyarakat. Proses aktualisasi adalah kegiatan aktual dalam menanamkan kesadaran ekologi sosial Islam pada masyarakat yang mana dilakukan dalam ruang sosial keluarga, masyarakat, dan sekolah yang diorganisasi oleh negara melalui kebijakan dan peraturan per undang-undangan. Dengan proses rekonstruksi dan aktualisasi yang terstruktur ini, maka negara akan aktif membangun kesadaran ekologis sosial Islam dengan aktif dan terstruktur dengan baik guna mewujudkan basis kesadaran, ilmu pengetahuan, dan tata nilai ekologi sosial Islam pada masyarakat. Literacy on Islamic social ecology is the human interaction with the natural environment, technology, and social which is based on the basic principles of Islam. Reconstruction of literacy on Islamic social ecology that can be reconstructed is a basic tenet of Islam that affirms the human position as a "leader" by "mandate" to manage "Earth" or "natural environment and natural resources" as well as possible. Reconstruction of ecological literacy is then to be actualized in society. The process of actualization is actual activity in instilling awareness of the social ecology of Islam in the society which is done in the social space of families, communities, and schools organized by the state through policies and regulations. With the process of reconstruction and actualization, then the state will actively build social-ecological awareness of Islam in order to realize a base of awareness, knowledge, and values of Islamic social ecology in society.

To improve access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy in rural areas of the global south, off-grid systems using renewable generation and energy storage are often proposed. However, solution design is often technology-driven, with insufficient consideration of social and cultural contexts. This leads to a risk of unintended consequences and inappropriate systems that do not meet local needs. To address this problem, this paper describes the application of a capabilities-led approach to understanding a community’s multi-dimensional energy poverty and assessing their needs as they see them, in order to better design suitable technological interventions. Data were collected in Tlamacazapa, Mexico, through site visits and focus groups with men and women. These revealed the ways in which constrained energy services undermined essential capabilities, including relating to health, safety, relationships and earning a living, and highlighted the specific ways in which improved energy services, such as lighting, cooking and mechanical power could improve capabilities in the specific context of Tlamacazapa. Based on these findings, we propose some potential technological interventions to address these needs. The case study offers an illustration of an assessment method that could be deployed in a variety of contexts to inform the design of appropriate technological interventions.

Risk Assessment Method

Successful implementation of Health and Safety (H&S) systems requires an effective mechanism to assess risk. Existing methods focus primarily on measuring the safety aspect; the risk of an accident is determined based on the product of severity of consequence and likelihood of the incident arising. The health component, i.e., chronic harm, is more difficult to assess. Partially, this is due to both consequences and the likelihood of health issues, which may be indeterminate. There is a need to develop a quantitative risk measurement for H&S risk management and with better representation for chronic health issues. The present paper has approached this from a different direction, by adopting a public health perspective of quality of life. We have then changed the risk assessment process to accommodate this. This was then applied to a case study. The case study showed that merely including the chronic harm scales appeared to be sufficient to elicit a more detailed consideration of hazards for chronic harm. This suggests that people are not insensitive to chronic harm hazards, but benefit from having a framework in which to communicate them. A method has been devised to harmonize safety and harm risk assessments. The result was a comprehensive risk assessment method with consideration of safety accidents and chronic health issues. This has the potential to benefit industry by making chronic harm more visible and hence more preventable.
