The innovative park

THE Qatar General Electricity and Water Corporation (Kahramaa) will open its awareness park located in Al Thumama area in 2013.

The innovative park has been designed as a model centre for disseminating information on ways to conserve water and electricity.

In an attractive way, the park will also demonstrate the processes of electricity generation and water desalination from the sea and serve as an innovative source of entertainment and knowledge, especially for children.

This novel project was honoured with the Qatar Sustainability Assessment System (QSAS) award on Thursday.

Kahramaa President Essa bin Hilal al Kuwari received the award for the park which has achieved five-star QSAS Commercial Design Certification.

Prior to the presentation of the award, Head of Design Engineering Section at the Water Projects Department of Kahramaa Mohamad Thani al Maadead made a presentation highlighting the outstanding sustainability features of the project.

The construction work of the awareness park has been given this award for meeting all technical requirements by taking effective measures to minimise obstruction of daylight, providing landscape that encourages green and fights desertification, applying efficient lighting, cooling, plumbing and irrigation systems as well as using solar energy to heat and treat grey water.

Besides, the park uses materials that facilitate future reuse or recycling and reduce remarkably excessive energy consumption, control indoor pollutant sources and provides sufficient noise insulation.

The awareness park has been designed in a way to respect the cultural values of the country and the Arab world.

It boasts of intelligent building operation and control systems.

The park is being constructed as part of Kahramaa’s commitment to achieve Qatar National Vision 2030, which has sustainable development of the environment as one of its four main objectives

Nearly three out of 10 pediatric specialists have prescribed psychotropic medication to preschoolers

Nearly three out of 10 pediatric specialists have prescribed psychotropic medication to preschoolers with developmental disorders such as autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, according to a health ministry survey.

Conducted last fall by a ministry research group, the survey also found that more than half of the doctors who responded have prescribed drugs such as tranquilizers and sleeping pills to children up to second grade in elementary school.

It was the first such survey on prescribing such drugs to children.

Eiji Nakagawa, head of pediatric neurology at the National Center Hospital of the National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry in Kodaira, Tokyo, warned of the need to examine the long-term effects of psychotropic medication on children.

"The potential impact on patients' minds and physical growth arising from the continued use of such medication from an early age has not been examined, although some medication has a direct impact on neurotransmitters and hormonal secretion," said Nakagawa, who conducted the poll.

Noting that inexperienced doctors may prescribe such medication, Nakagawa said clinical guidelines need to be established by swiftly examining the safety of such medication for children in cooperation with pharmaceutical firms.

The survey of 1,155 pediatric neurologists and doctors certified by the Japanese Society for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry received responses from 618.

Of the respondents, 175 doctors, or 28 percent, said they had prescribed psychotropic medication to preschoolers, while 339, or 55 percent, said they had done so for children up to the second grade.

When including children up to high school age, 451 of the respondents, or 73 percent, said they had prescribed such drugs.

Such medication was prescribed to address sleeping disorders, impulsiveness, hyperactivity, self-injury and harm to others.

The medication prescribed included risperidone, methylphenidate and sleeping pills.
