Authors: Marcella Erika Tara Marcella , Sandy Teguh Arie Sandy
Published: February 2025

The COVID-19 pandemic has driven significant changes in curriculum development, mainly through the accelerated integration of digital technologies, the contextualisation of core content with pandemic-related themes, and the adoption of flexible teaching methodologies. This study aims to analyse research trends in curriculum development influenced by the pandemic using a bibliometric approach based on Scopus data (2020–2024). The findings reveal increased research interest in immediate responses, such as online learning platforms and digital literacy training during 2020–2021, followed by long-term adaptations, including sustainable curriculum frameworks and inclusive stakeholder involvement. The study also identifies gaps in long-term digital integration strategies and variability in stakeholder engagement. These findings highlight the importance of flexibility, collaboration, and innovative technologies in building resilient and adaptive education systems. This research contributes to the theoretical discourse on adaptive curriculum design and offers practical insights for more inclusive and responsive educational policies and practices in addressing future crises.

Published: February 2025

The culture of students often influences how agricultural topics are learned. This study examined the impact of cultural beliefs senior secondary school agriculture students held on their livestock production learning in Ogun State, Nigeria. The study employed a survey research design guided by four research objectives. The population consisted of all senior secondary school agriculture students in Ogun State, and a multi-stage sampling technique was used to select participants. Data were collected using a researcher-designed questionnaire and analysed using mean and standard deviation. The findings revealed that parents, peers, and traditional religious leaders are the primary sources of students’ cultural beliefs. These beliefs, often expressed as taboos, rituals, and superstitions, significantly influence students’ learning of livestock production. To address this, sensitising teachers about the interaction between cultural beliefs and the teaching of scientific principles is recommended.

Social Interaction of Generation Z in China
Authors: Hu Sumei
Published: February 2025

Due to the advancement of mutual information technology and the impacts of globalization and cultural pluralism, Generation Z has developed notions of social life and social channels that are significantly different from those of the preceding generations. A thorough understanding of its peculiarities is conducive to our in-depth knowledge of this group. This article is a discussion of populous forms of social interaction among Generation Zers in China, such as Dazi social interaction, circle-based social interaction, and social media-based interaction. These forms of social life are the result of technological development and the advancement of urbanization, emblematic of the emotional needs of Chinese youth and their individual expression. The study also finds that these novel social interactions bring challenges to this generation, such as communication apprehension, information cocoons, cyber violence, and privacy breaches.
25 años del Estatuto de Roma: desafíos paradigmáticos en su implementación
Authors: Ramos Borges Osnarci Rafael
Published: February 2025

After more than two decades since the creation of the International Criminal Court, progress has been made in the field of International Criminal Justice, however, such institution is exposed to the paradox of what it is versus what is wanted from it. This article addresses as its central thesis the lack of uniformity of criteria in the adoption of measures that integrate International Criminal Law in the domestic legal systems of the States Parties that have a system of Continental Law to respond to these trials of public opinion in which it is regularly involved. It also examines how, in the absence of integration, the principles of complementarity and cooperation are undermined, making it impossible to improve the Court’s effectiveness. Finally, it addresses recommendations to reduce the impunity gap in the face of the new decade that lies ahead to maintain peace, security, and the well-being of humanity.
La formación inicial docente en los Estudios Sociales: estudio de caso de una universidad privada de la zona Sur de Costa Rica (USCR)
Authors: Arce Bolaños Alejandro , Gómez Chaves Kendal
Published: February 2025

This article presents the data from a case study on initial teacher training in a Costa Rican university. For the analysis, we started from the study category of Initial Teacher Training, which is understood as a line of research in the didactics of history for decision-making and reflection in practice (Añahual and Jara, 2021). The methodological strategy corresponds to a text analysis matrix for the interpretation of the components of the official curriculum, as well as open coding and triangulation of curricular documents. It is concluded that the initial training model transitions between the categories of the technical and practical curriculum, but is mostly technical, in that a model predominates over the teaching of traditional Social Studies.
The Ecoformative and Transformative Issues of Nature in the Schoolyard: An Exploration of the Relationship Between Everyday Experiences of Nature and Well-being at School
Authors: Cosquer Alix , Gimenez Olivier , Gregoire Arnaud , Girard Vincent , Noell Thierry , Wasella Tatiana
Published: February 2025

In urban areas, the implementation of schoolyard facilities (especially through the greening of these spaces) aims to promote children's contact with nature to improve well-being and increase their awareness of environmental preservation. In this study, we use the prospect of schoolyard landscaping in two French schools to conduct research on pupils’ relationship with nature and well-being at school. We explore cognitive and social mechanisms that affect children's perceptions and behaviour in their relationships with nature on a daily basis and in the school context, with a view toward implementing schoolyard designs.

The research aims are (i) to gain a better understanding of the perceptions and uses that shape children's day-to-day interactions, (ii) to document their perceived well-being in the school environment, and (iii) to elicit pupils' views on changes to the school grounds, in order to better understand the characteristics and dynamics underlying the organisation of direct and sensitive relationships with nature. The results of this study are intended to contribute to an understanding of the issues, obstacles and levers involved in implementing schoolyard development projects, and to provide input for a reflective approach to these initiatives.

The results show that children's daily experiences of nature are constructed at the convergence of direct contact with the environment and the social framework that supports these interactions. These experiences foster the construction of perceptions and links with the natural environment, which reciprocally feed into further experience. The presence of nature in school grounds directly promotes pupils' perceived well-being; a greater degree of experience and appreciation of nature positively influences it. We observe a lack of explicit recognition of nature's contribution to well-being and examine the social and contextual reasons behind this, as well as the impact on pupils' choices about schoolground planning. We then discuss the limits of urban policies based on schoolyard modifications and explore ways of including social-ecological relationships through children’s participation.

Introduction. Reconstructive operations on the aortic valve (AV) offer several advantages over standard AV replacement with mechanical or biological prostheses. This approach has allowed patients to avoid the adverse effects of long-term antithrombotic therapy. Furthermore, it has preserved the natural mobility of the left ventricular outflow tract, resulting in improved hemodynamics across the valve. Materials for reconstruction are often readily available, making the method economically attractive.Problem Statement. Autologous pericardium is the most commonly used material in AV reconstruction. Glutaraldehyde treatment of autologous pericardium (GTAP) has provided tissue with enhanced mechanical properties and reduced thrombogenicity. However, the long-term degeneration of biological tissues used in AV surgery has remained a concern despite glutaraldehyde treatment.Purpose. This study has aimed to evaluate the current status and future prospects for the use of GTAP in reconstructive AV surgery.Materials and Methods. A literature search has been conducted using PubMed, Web of Science, and the Google search engine. All studies on GA-fixed pericardial tissue published up to March 2023 have been identified. A total of 165 articles have been initially retrieved, of which 20 relevant studies are included in this review.
Results. GTAP has demonstrated excellent elasticity and surgical handling characteristics. It has enabled complex AV reconstructions with sustained immediate transvalvular hemodynamics. Degeneration and calcification rates of GTAP have been comparable to those observed in existing biological prostheses.Conclusions. GTAP off ers signifi cant potential for advancing techniques in aortic valve pathology correction. It is cost-effective, readily available, and facilitates effective valve reconstruction. However, aggressive prophylaxis for infective endocarditis remains mandatory in the postoperative period. Further multicenter studies with larger cohorts are essential to better delineate the long-term prospects and limitations of GTAP in AV surgery.
Predictors of Improvement in Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Catheter Ablation: Systematic Review
Authors: Ahluwalia Nikhil , Hussain Ahmed , Providencia Rui , Schilling Richard J
Published: February 2025

Background: Left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) can improve after catheter ablation (CA) in many patients with AF. However, prospective prediction of response can be challenging. The aim of this study was, therefore, to perform a systematic literature review of features associated with improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with AF and LVSD undergoing first CA. Method: Systematic search of Ovid MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Library databases up to 24 January 2024, for studies involving adult patients with LVSD receiving treatment for AF. The focus was on research articles and clinical trials reporting features associated with changes in LVEF following CA. The review followed PRISMA guidelines. Results: A total of 789 unique articles were reviewed and 20 were included in the systematic review. Sixty-nine per cent (range, 54–79%) of included patients met the criteria for responder status, which were based on LVEF improvement (usually an increase in LVEF >10% or to >50% at follow-up). Baseline surrogates of myocardial fibrosis on MRI (R2=−0.67), electroanatomical mapping (R2=−0.93) and biochemical surrogates have shown the strongest association with LVEF change. Left atrium and LV chamber size, diastolic dysfunction ECG-based parameters and a known heart failure aetiology have shown prognostic value independently and in combination. Discussion: Imaging, clinical and ECG-based surrogates of LV fibrosis may be pre-CA markers of LVEF improvement in patients with AF and LVSD. However, the confounding effect of procedural outcomes should be considered. A composite risk stratification tool would have clinical utility in risk stratification and patient selection; however, prospective studies are needed.
O conceito de piedade na Filosofia do Direito de Hegel e a noção de mulher
Authors: Miranda Marloren
Published: February 2025

O objetivo mais geral deste trabalho é oferecer alguns elementos para uma reflexão mais profunda sobre a noção de piedade ligada à noção de mulher na Filosofia do Direito de Hegel. O problema mais específico que guia o artigo é o fato de que a discussão sobre piedade, nesse contexto, envolve dois termos em alemão, a saber, Pietät e Frömmigkeit. Na obra referida, Hegel não os define muito precisamente, mas indica uma diferenciação necessária. Desse modo, o texto, primeiramente, busca raízes semânticas desses termos; a seguir, recupera uma noção antiga de piedade, apontando para sentidos desse termo que se perderam ao longo da história. A hipótese é a de que, ao vincular a piedade à mulher, especialmente trazendo a figura de Antígona, Hegel abre espaço para pensar esse conceito não apenas no sentido religioso, mas também ético e político, ainda que ele critique um uso político da piedade, como, por exemplo, no §270 da mesma obra, isto é, enquanto fundamento do Estado.

Authors: Camacho Mora Fernando
Published: February 2025

Introducción: El artículo examina el diseño cerámico en Guaitil y San Vicente, Costa Rica, con el propósito de explorar este arte popular desde las perspectivas de la estética y de la filosofía política. Objetivo: Se analiza este arte popular en la producción cerámica de estas comunidades guanacastecas mediante el estudio de tres aspectos: la formación de la persona ceramista, la relación con la tecnología y el rol del mercado. Métodos: Para ello, se utilizó el método etnográfico y la técnica de conversaciones abiertas, con la que se recopilaron datos cualitativos de los ceramistas locales. Resultados: Se identificó una tensión entre la necesidad económica de mercantilizar la tradición y la resistencia local frente a criterios externos. Aunque las comunidades han adaptado su arte al mercado, su falta de autonomía creativa persiste. Conclusiones: El arte popular en Guaitil y San Vicente se ve influenciado por presiones externas y carece de un carácter contestatario. Se resalta la necesidad de apoyo gubernamental para promover un arte más autónomo y liberado de limitaciones externas, mientras que se abren nuevas preguntas sobre la relación del arte popular con el mercado y la equidad en su proyección comercial.

Published: February 2025

A petefészek-krioprezerváció és -autotranszplantáció ígéretes lehetőséget kínál a
termékenység megőrzésére a gonadotoxikus kezelésen átesett daganatos betegek
számára. Az eljárás célja a petefészek funkciójának helyreállítása a kezelést
követően és a korai petefészek-kimerülés megakadályozása. Az esettanulmány célja
a petefészek-krioprezerváció és -autotranszplantáció módszerének bemutatása és
az aktuális tudományos irodalom áttekintése a témában. Egy 25 éves, akut
lymphoblastos leukaemiával diagnosztizált nőbetegnél a myeloablativ kezelés
előtt petefészekszövetének krioprezervációját végeztük el. Remisszióját követően
a petefészekszövet ortotop autotranszplantációjára került sor, ezt követően a
beteget hetente történő hormonszintmérésekkel (FSH, LH, ösztradiol,
progeszteron) és transvaginalis ultrahangvizsgálatokkal követtük. A
gonadotropin- és petefészek-hormonszintek a posztoperatív 7. és 63. nap között
nem mutattak jelentős változást. A 145. napon a petefészek endokrin funkciója
helyreállt, amit a csökkent gonadotropinszintek és a normalizálódott
ösztradiolszintek mutattak. Az irodalomban a hosszú távú utánkövetés során a
petefészekgraftok 5 éves túlélési aránya 55% volt, és a reproduktív funkció
helyreállt, egyes esetekben spontán terhességek is bekövetkeztek. A módszer
hatékonynak bizonyult az endokrin és a reproduktív funkciók helyreállításában, a
legnagyobb eséllyel a terhesség a beavatkozást követő rövid időszakban
valósítható meg. Korábbi vizsgálatok szerint a petefészek-krioprezervációt és
-autotranszplantációt követően akár 41%-os élveszületési arányt is elértek. A
petefészek krioprezervációja és autotranszplantációja értékes lehetőséget kínál
a termékenység megőrzésére a gonadotoxikus kezeléseken átesett betegek számára.
Bár tapasztalataink egyetlen esetre korlátozódnak, az eredmények biztatóak.
További kutatások szükségesek az eljárás optimalizálásához és klinikai
alkalmazásának szélesítéséhez. Orv Hetil. 2025; 166(5): 195–200.
Új irányelvek az infektív endocarditis megelőzésében és ezek fogászati és szájsebészeti vonatkozásai

Published: February 2025

Az infektív endocarditis a fogászati beavatkozásokkal kapcsolatosan előforduló
egyik legsúlyosabb lehetséges szövődmény, amelynek mortalitása még jelenleg is
nagy. Megfelelő megelőző intézkedésekkel azonban hatékonyan csökkenthető a
szívbelhártya-gyulladás kialakulásának kockázata, ezért fontos, hogy a gyakorló
fogorvos naprakész legyen az aktuális javaslatokkal kapcsolatban. Jelenleg két
irányelv érhető el, az egyik az American Heart Association (AHA) által 2022-ben
megjelentetett, a másik az Európai Kardiológiai Társaság (ESC) 2023-ban
publikált ajánlása. Összefoglalónkban bemutatjuk ezek újdonságait és a közöttük
lévő különbségeket. Az előző ESC-ajánlás 2015-ben jelent meg, az azóta eltelt
idő alatt publikált új kutatások és eredmények alapján azonban szükségesnek
bizonyult ennek felülvizsgálata és módosítása. Az ESC a 2023-ban kiadott
irányelvében újraértékelte a profilaxisban részesítendő, cardiovascularis
betegségben szenvedő páciensek körét. Pontosították az implantált billentyűk
típusát és a billentyűintervenciók körét, valamint a profilaxisban részesítendő,
congenitalis szívbetegséggel élők csoportját. Az endocarditis-profilaxisban
részesítendők közé sorolták a mechanikus keringéstámogató eszközzel élőket,
valamint ajánlást fogalmaztak meg szívtranszplantált betegek részére. A
megelőzésre alkalmazandó antibiotikumok közül a clindamycin helyett az
azithromycin és a clarithromycin került be az ajánlásba. Annak érdekében, hogy
az ajánlásokat könnyebben lehessen alkalmazni, kitérünk a leggyakrabban
előforduló speciális gyógyszerelési/adagolási igényekre, gyógyszerallergiákra
is. Összefoglalónk része a jelenlegi, aktuális ajánlásokat tartalmazó, az orvosi
rendelőben is könnyen áttekinthető útmutató és a gyakorlati szempontból hasznos
gyógyszerfelírási segédlet is. Orv Hetil. 2025; 166(5): 163–174.

The Intersection of Religion, Public Policy, and Women's Online Activism in Sri Lanka and Afghanistan: A Comparative Analysis
Authors: Nandy Debasish , Besra Ananta Kumar
Published: February 2025

Research Problem: Women’s activism through social media in South Asia, particularly in Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, is shaped by a complex interplay of religion, public policy, and socio-political contexts. While social media offers opportunities for empowerment and advocacy, its role remains contested due to societal barriers, political constraints, and religious influences.
Research Purposes: This study aims to explore the dynamics of women’s online activism in Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, examining how socio-economic, political, and religious factors influence their digital engagement. It seeks to identify key challenges and highlight the comparative impact of social media on women’s advocacy in these two countries.
Research Methods: The study employs a qualitative approach, using content analysis of secondary data, including reports, academic studies, and media articles. Comparative analysis is applied to evaluate the socio-political and religious factors shaping women’s digital activism in Sri Lanka and Afghanistan.
Results and Discussion: In Sri Lanka, women benefit from higher literacy rates and a relatively open societal structure, enabling them to use social media effectively for addressing issues like corruption and economic mismanagement. However, ethnic and religious divisions limit cohesive activism. In Afghanistan, women demonstrate resilience by leveraging platforms like Facebook and WhatsApp despite facing severe socio-religious constraints and the Taliban’s repressive policies. The analysis underscores the critical role of social media as both a tool for advocacy and a contested space for control and suppression.
Research Implications and Contributions: The study highlights the necessity of addressing structural barriers to enhance women’s digital participation. Regional collaboration, improved digital literacy, and international advocacy are recommended to amplify women’s voices in both countries. The findings contribute to the broader discourse on the intersection of religion, public policy, and digital activism, providing insights for policymakers and activists working toward inclusive social progress.
The Existence of Beliefs in the Circle of Official Religions in Indonesia
Authors: Septiadi Muhammad Andi , Ramdani Zulmi
Published: February 2025

Research Problem: The religious teachings of ancestors, commonly referred to as "beliefs" in Indonesia, have existed since ancient times but face a dilemmatic position in the context of officially recognized religions. These local belief systems often encounter discrimination and marginalization, despite their coexistence with recognized religions. The tension between local beliefs and state-recognized religions highlights the ongoing challenges of religious tolerance and inclusivity in Indonesia.
Research Purposes: This study aims to examine the existence and recognition of local religions within the framework of Indonesia’s official religious policies. It seeks to explore how local beliefs coexist with state-recognized religions and to understand the impact of legal recognition on reducing discrimination against adherents of these belief systems.
Research Methods: The research employs qualitative methods to analyze the historical, sociocultural, and legal dynamics affecting local religions in Indonesia. It draws from case studies, legal documentation, and interviews to provide an in-depth understanding of the issue.
Results and Discussion: The findings reveal that adherents of local religions often experience discrimination, stemming from their exclusion from official religious recognition. The Constitutional Court's decision No. 97/PUU-XIV/2016 marked a significant turning point, granting legal acknowledgment to local belief systems and addressing some aspects of discrimination. Despite these advances, tensions remain, but official religions generally promote tolerance and foster coexistence among diverse communities.
Research Implications and Contributions: This study highlights the importance of fostering tolerance and inclusivity in multicultural societies. It contributes to understanding the challenges faced by local belief systems in Indonesia and underscores the need for policy and societal efforts to strengthen religious harmony. The findings also provide a foundation for further research on the interplay between legal recognition, religious diversity, and social cohesion.

Assessing the Impact of Islamic Teachings on the Rights and Welfare of Muslim Women: A Policy and Social Justice Perspective
Authors: Houmine Mohammed
Published: February 2025

Research Problem: The rights and responsibilities of women in Islam have often been misunderstood, particularly in the international context. Predominant narratives from Western societies frequently depict Muslim women as oppressed and lacking gender equality. This study investigates a fundamental question: has Islamic teaching contributed to the social welfare of Muslim women by granting them equitable rights and responsibilities?
Research Purposes: This research aims to evaluate how Islamic teachings have influenced the social and economic well-being of Muslim women, emphasizing their rights and responsibilities. It also explores the role of religion-based policies in promoting social justice for Muslim women.
Research Methods: An exploratory, inductive, and analytical approach was employed to examine Islamic teachings using primary sources, including the Qur'an and Sunnah, alongside case studies of policies and social practices affecting Muslim women’s rights. A life-cycle approach was adopted to provide a holistic view of women’s status at various stages of their lives.
Results and Discussion: Findings indicate that Islam has granted significant rights and freedoms to Muslim women, such as access to education, employment, and legal protection—rights they did not enjoy prior to the revelation of the Qur'an. However, the implementation of these rights in policy and practice continues to face challenges, including social stigma and varying interpretations of religious laws. Islamic principles emphasizing social justice have demonstrably contributed to the improved welfare of Muslim women in public policy contexts.
Research Implications and Contributions: This study contributes to academic discourse by exploring the intersection of religious teachings and social justice. It opens avenues for further research into how religion-based policies can be adapted to support women’s rights. These findings are particularly relevant for policymakers, activists, and scholars working on gender equality and social justice in religious contexts.

Published: February 2025

Abstract In this study, the principles of complex climatology were applied to delineate topoclimates in the mountains of eastern Cuba. A regional numerical weather model, driven by reanalysis, was used to obtain temperature patterns at a resolution of 0.6 km. Unsupervised machine learning techniques were then utilized to identify weather types based on temperature during rainy and less rainy periods, as well as geographical location. This analysis was supplemented with historical precipitation and geographical data to identify 23 topoclimates in the study area. The methods allowed for the estimation of topoclimate identification errors and provided insights into the representativeness of surface meteorological stations for the study area. The results showed that the rainfall distribution of the identified topoclimates was consistent with that of local climate-forming factors and previous research. Furthermore, new insights into the climatological rainfall characteristics of the lower and middle heights of the mountains in eastern Cuba were identified.

Published: February 2025

Abstract Oil spills have had catastrophic effects on marine ecosystems. The removal of oil spills from the water surface has then attracted worldwide attention. Natural rubber (NR) is a well-known example of a hydrophobic material, due to its hydrocarbon structure. For this purpose, the potential of NR as an oil absorbent is demonstrated. NR was formed into a cellular structure where oil absorbency can be controlled by their densities. It can be done by varying the foaming volume from 2-8 fold (2×, 4×, 6×, and 8×) the original volume of the beater. Increasing the foaming volume has reduced the densities. Over the variations of densities, the oil absorbencies were 10.58 to 16.76 g/g for crude oil, and 6.56 to 13.18 g/g for diesel oil. This indicated that the absorbent based on NR latex foam provided excellent performance and could be practically used as an oil-absorbent material.

Abstract Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) is a polymer that can be used in applications requiring its exposition to gamma radiation, nevertheless, the radiation induces main chain scission backbone, leading to modification in some properties. Therefore, using materials such as layered double hydroxide (LDH), was evaluated as a new radiation shielding agent. This work synthesized LDH and added to PMMA by an in-situ polymerization method. Viscosimetric analysis showed that LDH at 0.25 wt% concentration promotes polymer radiolytic protection of 90% against damage caused by gamma radiation. The topographic images obtained by AFM revealed increasing PMMA/LDH film roughness, which impacted the lower film transmittance. The combined effect of LDH and gamma radiation interferes with the degradation process of PMMA, promoting reduced rigidity, greater mobility of polymer chains, and lower optical gap energy. Thus, these results open a promising path for using LDH as additives in polymers exposed to gamma radiation.

ABSTRACT Long-neck glass bottles are not returned for reuse by the industry, which has generated a large quantity of waste with environmental impacts for current and future generations. The main raw material employed to synthesize geopolymeric materials is metakaolin, although the relationship between silica and alumina content is not ideal. Often, the silicates in the activating solution complement the required SiO2 content. An eco-efficient option would be to use long-neck bottles as an additional source of silica. This work evaluates plastic viscosity, microstructural, and mechanical characteristics of non-conventional metakaolin geopolymers based on long-neck bottles waste incorporation from the replacement of 0, 10, 20, and 30% of metakaolin with waste from blue, green, and amber long-neck bottles. The best combinations of SiO2/Al2O3, NaOH concentration, and curing temperature were selected to produce geopolymers, which were evaluated through rheology, x-ray diffractometry, and compressive strength. The results indicate a lower flow resistance of geopolymers with residue, in accordance with the increase in the residue content in the system. The occurrence of geopolymerization was observed with and without glass waste, with ambient and thermal curing. The compressive strength, at 90 days of the geopolymers with 10% replacement was higher than the value of the reference sample by 4.1%, 29.1% and 21.0% for the blue, green and amber long neck residues, respectively.

Authors: Balasundaram Arun , Gangathulasi Janardhanan
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT Due to the huge demand and scarcity for river sand, there is a desperate need for a Quantitative, Qualitative and Environmentally friendly alternative for river sand. As aggregate is the second largest resource used next to water, the alternative for river sand suggested should be not only of good quality but also should be available in enough quantity to be substituted for river sand. Such alternate choices should not just satisfy the structural requirements but also not affect the environment. In this regard, the environmental valuation of mountains is carried out to assess the benefits and limitations of using M sand as a substitute for river sand. In this study, the chemical properties of M sand samples from various locations are determined along with the lifecycle assessment of M sand. Finally, the Environmental Valuation of mountains is done to determine if the negatives outweigh the benefits. From the results, the various methods to resort to in order to achieve a sustainable level of replacement of M sand with river sand are discussed.
