Health care’s important influence on environmental equity issues
An unhealthy environment does not affect everyone equally. Wealthier people, to some extent, can dodge the worst effects of environmental problems, while people without means experience the full brunt of those problems. That difference is called “environmental inequity,” and one role of the health care field’s journey to sustainability is lessening that inequity.
