With every ecological change, socioeconomic conditions of people are affected. This is clear in the case drawn for the Hadejia-Jama are-Komadugu-Yobe Basin (H-JKYB). Although the government has been quick to intervene, the environment will take several decades to attain a favorable balance. This case is relevant for all the river basins, especially in dryland areas.

The toxicokinetic and toxicological behavior of lead can be affected by interactions with essential elements and nutrients (for a review see Mushak and Crocetti 1996). In humans, the interactive behavior of lead and various nutritional factors is particularly significant for children, since this age group is not only sensitive to the effects of lead, but also experiences the greatest changes in relative nutrient status. Nutritional deficiencies are especially pronounced in children of lower socioeconomic status however, children of all socioeconomic strata can be affected.

Wilson showed the increased movement of African Americans in white-collar jobs and attendant life styles similar to their white peers however, he speaks to the issue of career mobility and final positions commensurate with their education and career experience. Wilson s primary concern focused on the plight of the black underclass-whose life chances could not be attributed solely to race. Furthermore, economic trends that changed the structure of work limited the socioeconomic positions of the very poor regardless of race or ethnicity (Cose, 1993). 

A particularly important set of beliefs is the idea that a given substance is addictive. Once a behavioral pattern is conceptualized as an addiction, with the concomitant causal beliefs, it may change dramatically. An especially important belief is that addiction is, if not irresistible, at least very hard to resist, almost amounting to compulsive desire. Hence, to the causal beliefs about the effects of drug taking on the addict s body and socioeconomic status, we must add causa) beliefs about the effect of addiction on his will—specifically, on the ability to quit. Two opposite beliefs about this effect may have the same impact on behavior. Some addicts use their (usually self-deceptive) belief that they can quit at any time as an excuse for not quitting. Others use their (equally self-deceptive) belief that they are unable to quit as an excuse for not quitting. The belief that one is addicted may reinforce the addiction by the mechanism of dissonance reduction ...
