Environmental Health

Environmental Health is a branch of public health concerned with how our environment affects our health. It involves assessing, understanding, and controlling environmental factors that can potentially affect human health, such as air and water pollution, hazardous waste, and climate change. Environmental Health also includes the study of how individuals interact with their environment and how these interactions can impact their health. Data Science plays a crucial role in Environmental Health by providing tools and techniques to collect, analyze, and interpret data related to environmental factors and their impact on human health. Machine learning algorithms can be used to identify patterns and predict potential health risks associated with environmental factors. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can be used to map and visualize environmental data, helping to identify areas of high risk and inform policy decisions. Overall, Environmental Health aims to promote and protect human health by identifying and mitigating environmental risks.
