Health & Environment
Speakers cover health and environment issues ranging
from toxic chemical or heavy metal exposure in homes, outdoors
and at work, health threatening air pollution, water pollution,
or direct somatic contact, health threats from household hazardous
waste, industrial toxic waste, or radioactive waste, the health
risks of pesticide and other food contaminants, health risks
associated with environmentally less sustainable lifestyle and
dietary choices, and more. Health impacts can include cancer,
heart disease, lung disease, asthma, neurological impairment,
kidney and liver disease, asbestosis, endocrine disruption,
reproductive health problems, birth defects, spread of infectious
diseases, dermatological and orthopedic problems, and multiple
or extreme chemical sensitivity syndrome.
Health & Environment. There are many linkages between
health and the environment. Toxic exposure, air and water pollution,
car dependent lifestyles, meat-heavy-vegetable-light diets,
and many more. See Richard
MacLean, David
Steinman, Michael
Castleman, Annie Bond,
Joel Hirschhorn,
Ed Lowans, Katie
Alvord, and Jack
Lebeau.
Environmental Health & Safety. Exposure to toxic
and hazardous materials in the workplace is an important environmental
health concern. Addressing this issue more effectively is beneficial
not only for workers but also for the businesses that pay health
and workers' compensation claims. See Jack
Giampalmi and Richard
MacLean.
