Children
in the New Millennium: Children
are exposed to many environmental threats to their health, physical
and mental development even their survival. Preliminary estimates
suggest that up to one-third of the global burden of disease can be
attributed to negative environmental indicators, such as polluted water
and air.
By illustrating the link between the environment and the well-being
of our children, this online resource intends to raise awareness and
deepen our understanding of environmental health issues. - United
