Community-led total sanitation (CLTS) is an approach used mainly in developing countries to improve sanitation and hygiene practices in a community. It focuses on spontaneous and long-lasting behavior change of an entire community. The goal of CLTS is to end open defecation. The term "triggering" is central to the CLTS process. It refers to ways of igniting community interest in ending open defecation, usually by building simple toilets, such as pit latrines. CLTS involves actions leading to increased self-respect and pride in one's community. It also involves shame and disgust about one's own open defecation behaviors.

Answer:

His decreased residual volume and decreased lung compliance contribute to his altered ventilation. 

Explanation:

Pneumoconioses are distinguished by reduced residual volume and impaired compliance with the lungs.

Pneumoconiosis involves asbestosis, silicosis, and the pneumoconiosis (CWP) of coal workers.

The most prevalent mineral dusts proven to cause pneumoconiosis in the workplace are asbestos, silica (rock and sand dust), and coal dust.

Cough and shortness of breath are by far the most common symptoms of pneumoconiosis. The threat is usually greater when people are exposed to high levels and/or long periods of time from mineral dusts.

One risk factor is the insufficient or inconsistent usage of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as respirators (specially designed breathing masks), as avoiding inhalation of dusts would also avoid pneumoconiosis.
