The relationship between the environment and the health of individuals and
communities is well established. The most familiar aspects of it include the
health of at-risk populations, environmental justice, and promotional
programs such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Active
Community Environments Initiative (ACES). The relationship between a healthy
environment and environmental health is also being affected by geopolitical
decisions, including the potential for eco-terrorism. Presenters will
examine the role of health information professionals in the new
environmentalism.
