Abstract: Movement of pollutants into soil and groundwater take place through disposals of wastes, discharge of effluent from industries or releases of chemicals through agriculture activities. Uncontrolled releases of pollutants will contaminate soil and groundwater which creates environmental and human health problems. This lead to increasing vulnerability of groundwater and soil which become one of the important environmental issue in Malaysia. This study focus on vulnerability of soil and groundwater in relation to agriculture activities and drinking water supply. This paper analyse types of soil and groundwater sources of pollutants in the Langat Basin, Malaysia and determine the level of vulnerability. A case study of landfill pollution was analysed to illustrate the impact and vulnerability of soil and groundwater quality. Key management aspect of soil and groundwater were discussed and a better approach in managing pollution source was proposed.

TL;DR: It was suggested that a holistic approach with multi-stakeholders is crucial to reduce food wastage towards achieving SFWM, and a better understanding on the complexity of FW issues, particularly for island-based hotel sector.

TL;DR: In this article, the impact of land use changes on air quality at the largest conurbation area in Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur Extended Mega Urban Regions (KLEMUR) from 2000 to 2015 was determined.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the composition of PM10 and the sources influencing the indoor and outdoor office environments using a mini-vol portable sampler at two sampling sites from May to August 2014 for daily 24-h sampling.

TL;DR: This study found that the distribution pattern for dengue cases is clustered, and more sets of cases throughout years are required in further studies to identify factors that contribute to d Dengue epidemiology in the Seremban district undergoing urbanization.
