Emerging Contaminants and One Health Approach
Management and Future Directions
About this book
Emerging contaminants, or contaminants of concern, which range from microplastics, industrial chemicals, cosmetics, and pesticides, to pharmaceuticals and pathogens, present unique issues and challenges to communities across the globe. The risk assessment and management of these potential hazards require an integrated, multi-disciplinary approach in connection with the holistic framework of One Health. This book explains the need for collaboration between researchers, policymakers, public health professionals, and other stakeholders to address the serious gaps between emerging contaminants and One Health. It offers practical strategies and solutions for managing emerging contaminants effectively.
