Abstract :
The realization of just how much disease and ill health can be prevented by focusing on environmental risk factors should add impetus to global efforts to encourage preventive health measures through all available policies, strategies, interventions, technologies and knowledge. Armed with the evidence of what is achievable – and needed – health-care policy-makers and practitioners alike should be encouraged in their efforts to promote healthy environments. Our evolving knowledge about environment-health interactions will support the design of more effective preventive public health strategies and interventions, directed at eliminating health hazards and reducing corresponding risks to health.( Preventing disease through healthy environments ) Environmental and social determinants of health are closely interlinked. Social determinants are functions of the circumstances in which people live, work and grow; largely shaped by the distribution of resources and power. These determinants are closely linked to and mediate exposure to environmental risk factors such as working conditions, housing, water and sanitation or healthy lifestyles.( Commission of Social Determinants of Health, 2008)
