Full text linkUna progettazione che integri elementi naturali con il contesto residenziale urbano è importante per i riconosciuti effetti positivi della Natura su individui e comunità. In parallelo, instaurare un legame affettivo con l’ambiente naturale durante l’infanzia influisce sul comportamento proambientale dell’adulto, ovvero tutti quei comportamenti finalizzati a diminuire i danni all’ambiente naturale e a preservare il territorio e le sue risorse. L’obiettivo di questo contributo è illustrare gli effetti positivi che il legame bambino-Natura può avere per la cura dell’ambiente. L’articolo si chiude con una riflessione sull’importanza di attuare politiche partecipative orientate a sostenere e incrementare il legame affettivo con la Natura di adulti e bambini, non solo per aiutarli ad apprezzare appieno il Suo potenziale rigenerativo, ma anche per capire l’importanza di preservarla.Integrating the environment in urban planning and management is important, due to the recognised positive effects of Nature on individuals and communities. At the same time, forming a positive relationship with the natural environment during childhood affects adult’s individual attitudes towards Nature and pro-environmental behaviour, namely those actions aimed to prevent damages to natural environment and protect natural resources. The aim of this work is to highlight the beneficial effects a positive child-Nature relationship can have on environmental care. This paper ends with a reflection on the importance to act participative policies in order to sustain and enhance child and adult’s relationship with Nature, not only to help them appreciate Nature’s restorative potential, but also to encompass the importance of taking care of it
Challenges and future trends of forensic toxicology to keep a cut above the rest
Full text linkForensic toxicology faces several challenges in research and daily practice, including new drugs and futuristic technologies requiring innovative testing methods and continuous education and training of professionals. One of the most pressing issues in recent years is the emergence of novel psychoactive substances, often created by modifying the chemical structure of existing drugs to produce compounds with similar effects that are not yet regulated and lack standardized references. To overcome this challenge, forensic toxicologists have employed a range of analytical methods, including qualitative and quantitative analysis using highly sensitive technologies such as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), which are the most reliable and accurate methods for detecting drugs in biological samples. Liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) is becoming the gold standard for detecting controlled substances, their derivatives and metabolites. Despite advancements in testing methods, challenges persist in forensic toxicology. As such, the field must invest in research and development to improve testing methods, utilize cutting-edge technologies, increase funding for training programs, and promote multidisciplinary interactions
