The World Health Organization states that the environment influences our health in many ways through the exposure to physical, chemical and biological risks, and through the changes that our behavior operates in response to those factors. This is what is commonly addressed as the "Environment and Health issue" (EH), which has gained an increasing attention at local, national and international level. There is a growing political support to the implementation of concrete actions, as well as an ever increasing knowledge of these issues. The need has been recognized to jointly tackle these issues with the aim of producing more detailed and focused studies and planning actions to reduce the negative impacts of some human activities on the environment.

Abstract
The World Health Organization states that the environment influences our health in many ways through the exposure to physical, chemical and biological risks, and through the changes that our behavior operates in response to those factors. This is what is commonly addressed as the "Environment and Health issue" (EH), which has gained an increasing attention at local, national and international level. There is a growing political support to the implementation of concrete actions, as well as an ever increasing knowledge of these issues. The need has been recognized to jointly tackle these issues with the aim of producing more detailed and focused studies and planning actions to reduce the negative impacts of some human activities on the environment. Several international initiatives addressed this issue in the last years.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
