and health
Improving health means tackling hazards in the environment
and the workplace and unravelling the environmental components
of diseases and allergies.

Many
lifestyle and environmental factors impinge on our overall well
being. This key action will investigate how exposure to air pollution,
heavy metals, toxic substances, electromagnetic radiation and noise
can affect health. It will also improve understanding of which aspects
of our environment pose the greatest threat as causes of conditions
such as asthma, allergies and skin cancer, allowing us to restrict
or avoid them in the future.
Tackling these issues requires the transnational approach that only
collaborative European research can offer. |
