INFLUENCE OF ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS ON REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH

Аннотация

Health hazards associated with the environment and occupational diseases can be of biological, chemical, physical, biomechanical or psychosocial origin. Environmental health risks include traditional hazards associated with poor sanitation and housing, as well as agricultural and industrial pollution of air, water, food and land. These risks lead to a wide range of health consequences. Development and industrialization have made an enormous positive contribution to health care. This has been facilitated by an increase in personal and social well-being, as well as significant improvements in health and education services, transportation and communication. All over the world, people live longer and healthier lives than they did centuries or even decades ago.These consequences are directly caused by safety risks and exposure to hazardous substances or environmental degradation at the local and global levels.
