Abstract

Human activity is rapidly transforming most of Earth’s natural systems. How this transformation is impacting human health, whose health is atgreatest risk, and the magnitude of the associated disease burden are relatively new subjects within thefield of environmental health. Wediscuss what is known about the human health implications of changes in the structure and function of natural systems and propose that thesechanges are affecting human health in a variety of important ways. We identify several gaps and limitations in the research that has been doneto date and propose a more systematic and comprehensive approach to applied research in thisfield. Such efforts could lead to a more robustunderstanding of the human health impacts of accelerating environmental change and inform decision making in the land-use planning,environmental conservation, and public health policy realms.
