Les produits chimiques font partie intégrante de notre quotidien et nous exposent, souvent inconsciemment, à nombre de perturbateurs endocriniens. Cette exposition n'est pas sans conséquences puisqu'elle peut provoquer une diminution des capacités cognitives, une baisse de la fertilité, une augmentation des maladies, ou encore des troubles hormonaux. Mais ce n'est pas une fatalité ! Invitant chaque lecteur à questionner ses modes de consommation, les auteurs expliquent comment reconnaître ces perturbateurs pour mieux s'en prémunir. Sous forme de questions-réponses interactives, ils proposent des actions concrètes et faciles à mettre en place pour les éviter au quotidien. Relevons ensemble le défi des perturbateurs endocriniens : comprenons-les pour s'en protéger!.

"The health sector is known to be one of the major contributors towards the greenhouse gas emissions causing the climate crisis, the greatest health threat of the 21st century. This volume positions the health sector as a leader in the fight against climate change and explores the role of the health system in climate policy action. It delivers an overview of the linkages between climate change and the health sector, with chapters on the impact of climate change on health, its connection to pandemics, and its effects on food, nutrition and air quality, while examining gendered and other vulnerabilities. It delves into the different operational aspects of the health sector in India and details how each one can become climate-smart to reduce the health sector's overall carbon footprint, by looking at sustainable procurement, green and resilient healthcare infrastructure, and the management of transportation, energy, water, waste, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and plastics in healthcare. Well supplemented with rigorous case studies, the book will be indispensable for students, teachers, and researchers of environmental studies, health sciences, and climate change. It will be useful for healthcare workers, public health officials, healthcare leaders, policy planners, and those interested in climate resilience and preparedness in the healthcare sector"--

This book brings together studies produced during the implementation of the MIUR-PRIN 2005/2007 inter-university project on 'The individual in domestic and community legislation: new models for protection and management of environmental and genotoxic risks'. The managers of the working groups organised itinerant study days in Messina, Florence and Rome, also with a view to in-the-field verification of different experiences and realities. Within the framework of interdisciplinary liaison, the important contributions made by eminent scholars have enabled the in-depth study at legal and medical level of the most appropriate tools for guaranteeing preventive and restrictive mechanisms in relation to protection from the damage of potentially genotoxic environmental, occupational or individual factors. This is the most recent approach to the new code of the environment, utilising the principle of precaution which is intended to induce the jurist and the medical scientist to discern profiles of continuity and discontinuity in the promotion and protection of individual values.

This information brochure wishes to present an overall picture of how the Nordic countries consider that chemicals should be handled in the vicinity of children starting from how products are chosen to the time when hazardous chemicals waste is destroyed or disposed of. The brochure is based on existing material produced by the Nordic countries in different contexts. It is published to provide inspiration and ideas for others in their equivalent efforts to spread information in order to lessen the exposure of children to hazardous chemicals. The brochure was made for the 4. Ministerial Conference on Environment and Health in Budapest on the 22-25th of June 2004. The conference was focused on children's environmental health.
