Explanation:
Preventing environmental pollution can save lives. There is clear scientific evidence on how environmental, chemical and air pollution as well as climate change threaten and impact our health. Europe has a real opportunity to protect and improve Europeans’ health and prevent major chronic health epidemics – here are ten ways how.
1. A healthy planet for healthy people
Preventing environmental pollution can save lives and reduce the toll of diseases. EU laws can reduce environmental pollution.
2. Protection of the most vulnerable
A polluted environment is most dangerous for children, older people, those already sick and people living in poverty.
3. Climate action for health
Climate action is the biggest health threat of the 21st century, but action to tackle it can provide immediate and significant health benefits.
4. An EDC-free future
Everyday exposure to hormone disrupting chemicals contributes to modern health epidemics like breast cancer and prostate cancer, obesity and diabetes as well as infertility and learning disorders.
5. Clean up the air we breathe
Air pollution is the number one environmental threat to health in Europe, leading to 400,000 early deaths each year.
6. Stop pesticides to promote health
Pesticides in our food, water and air can increase the risk of cancer and infertility, harm children’s healthy development and disrupt our hormonal systems.
7. Healthy, renewable and efficient energy
Burning coal for energy production is the most polluting form of power generation and we pay for it with our health and our healthcare budgets.
8. A toxic-free future
75% of chemicals produced in the EU are hazardous to health.
9. Healthy mobility
Fossil fuelled cars, buses and trucks are noisy, pollute the air and threaten our health.
10. A safe and toxic-free environment
In the EU, new plastic toys are produced under stricter standards than recycled ones.
