Planetary Health explores the many environmental changes that threaten to undermine progress in human health, and explains how these changes affect health outcomes, from pandemics to infectious diseases to mental health, from chronic diseases to injuries. It shows how people can adapt to those changes that are now unavoidable, through actions that both improve health and safeguard the environment. But humanity must do more than just adapt: we need transformative changes across many sectors - energy, housing, transport, food, and health care. The book discusses specific policies, technologies, and interventions to achieve the change required, and explains how these can be implemented. It presents the evidence, builds hope in our common future, and aims to motivate action by everyone, from the general public to policymakers to health practitioners. 546 $a Text in English. 650 0 $a Human ecology. 650 0 $a Human beings $x Effect of environment on. 650 0 $a Ecological engineering. 650 6 $a EÌcologie humaine. 650 6 $a Homme $x Influence de l'environnement. 650 6 $a GeÌnie eÌcologique. 650 7 $a human ecology. $2 aat 650 7 $a Human beings $x Effect of environment on. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00962843 650 7 $a Ecological engineering. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00901446 650 7 $a Human ecology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00962941 700 1 $a Frumkin, Howard, $e author. 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781108673938 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718100256.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E75A46C4214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
