      • Mosquitoes breed mostly in stagnant bodies of water such as ponds and lakes
        • Agricultural workers and those who work outdoors are more likely to get Malaria, cataracts and skin cancer
          • 78% of Malaria funds were from international investment in 2014
          • There is a disproportionate burden of Malaria on Sub-Saharan Africa
            • Malaria is becoming drug-resistant, and therefore harder to treat
      • Generally, those living on higher land have better incomes and access to services
      • Cultural controls on fertility: Religion, marriage, gender
        • The 1920's & 1960's saw baby booms
          • Urban environments encourage sedentary habits but discourage physical activity
            • The "airpocalypse" occurred in China in 2013, when it was covered in a smog of many fine particulates
              • The 2015 Paris Climate Agreement is trying to reduce GHG emissions
                • Food insecurity is more likely after floods and droughts
                  • To improve food security, farmers can ensure fields are well drained
                    • Peri-urban farming is used in urban areas
                  • NGOs aided farmers in Rwanda
