 Global environmental health considers the environment globally and its effects on human health around the world. Issues of water and air quality, food safety, and the effects of industrialization are considered, as well as major ecological problems such as deforestation and sustainable agriculture. Interactions between the physical environment and biological health risks are considered also. The effects of globalization of trade and the rapid movement of populations from one part of the world to the other are important “vectors” for the spread of disease globally. The global environmental health track provides key information for individuals looking to work in the field of global environmental health either overseas or in the U.S.
