Abstract

Environmental deterioration and violent armed conflict are both massive public health problems. They are often associated with each other, and they are also interconnected in complex ways with physical, biological, social, demographic, economic and cultural factors that can be described as addiction to carbon-based fuels. Collectively the combination threatens the earth’s life-support systems and human survival. This is the most serious public health problem of modern times. Tackling this problem will challenge all public health workers, and there is much that public health can do to help.

Özet

Çevresel şartların kötüye gidişi ve şiddete dayalı çatışmaların her ikisi de büyük çaplı halk sağlığı sorunlarıdır. Bunlar sıklıkla birbirleriyle ilişkilidirler ve yine karbon kaynaklı yakıtlara bağımlılık olarak tanımlanabilecek fiziksel, biyolojik, sosyal, demografik, ekonomik ve kültürel faktörlerle kompleks bir şekilde bağlantılıdır. Bunların kombinasyonu, beraberce, yeryüzünün yaşam destek sistemlerini ve insan yaşamını tehdit ediyor. Bu durum, modern zamanların en ciddi halk sağlığı sorunudur. Bu problemi çözmeye çalışmak tüm halk sağlığı çalışanlarını ilgilendirmektedir ve destek için halk sağlığı disiplininin yapabileceği birçok şey vardır.
