Environment and Health
Healthy environments are the foundation for all human well-being. They provide food and clean water, materials we use for fuel, building, and medicine, and spiritual and ethical values. Climate change and massive urbanization pose significant challenges to public health and may reverse the gains in development and health over the last half century. Tackling this challenge may be the greatest global health opportunity of this century. ERI supports integrated research that addresses strategies to understand tradeoffs and inform actions and policies that achieve better health and well-being in the face of environmental change.
