How Can I Drink Safely?; Perception Versus the Reality of Alcohol Consumption
This article investigates differences between perception and actual consumption of alcohol in young adults within the UK, suggesting that inaccurate information in the public domain may hamper those seeking to drink safely plus the development of moderate drinking cultures. Results confirm that inaccurate information may be preventing the development of safe drinking behaviours among certain groups. In addition, they indicate that some groups choose to ignore safe consumption limits in particular circumstances. Results indicate that many government strategies aimed at reducing unsafe drinking behaviour are inaccurately targeted; changing male public consumption behaviour may trigger changes in female behaviour
Highways and Wetlands: Compensating Wetlands Losses
DOT-FH-11-9442This Implementation Package is a practical guide for the creation and restoration of wetlands. It provides concepts, methods and general specifications for compensating unavoidable wetland losses in a cost effective manner. The manual includes guidance for wetland establishment and enhancement and provides information for the conceptual design of wetland systems. The site-specific nature of wetland compensation measures precludes giving detailed instructions and specifications for the establishment and enhancement of wetlands. Although much work on the establishment of wetlands has been published within the past decade (Appendix B), the state-of-the-art is still primitive. Consequently, this manual is far from the last word. It is a beginning and a lot is left to the best judgment of the users
