Trachoma has been eliminated as a public health problem in these settings and others (such as Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, and Oman) through improved socioeconomic status, improved environmental and public health infrastructures (water supply, latrines), and changed behavior.
If accepted by the communities, health education on hygiene behavior (especially hand hygiene), simple home-based water treatment systems (discussed above) and/or improved environmental sanitation (e.g., mixing feces with wood-fire ash or lime and shallow burial, or perhaps dual-chamber ventilated improved pit (VIP) latrines made of local materials) could reduce the worm burden.
Empirical environment and behavior research has found that empathy improves environmental attitudes and behaviors.
Place-based learning has been shown to increase pro-environmental behavior (Scannell and Gifford 2010), to provide a strong predictor of efforts to improve environmental quality (Johnson et al. 2012), and to represent a potentially important tool for promoting acceptance of climate change as a phenomenon of critical concern (Borick and Rabe 2010; Brownlee et al. 2013).
Thus, HCHO removal is essential for improving environmental quality.
They aim to preserve natural habitats, enhance environmental education in schools, promote agro-ecology among farmers, and improve environmental sanitation.
Hence, reducing both potential errors can improve environmental health.
They considered the customer environmental behavior.
The findings showed the following: (1) Environmental behavior could be divided into basic environmental behavior, decision-making environmental behavior, interpersonal environmental behavior and civic environmental behavior.
This is particularly demonstrated in research on environmental behavior, where several studies show that pro-environmental attitudes do necessarily correlate with pro-environmental behavior [18, 19].
