"Human sovereignty over the environment is a double-edged sword. For
instance, on the one hand, advances in science and technology have
caused deaths from infectious diseases to plummet around the world. But
on the other hand, pollution causes chronic diseases that erode both our
health and life spans. Reducing exposure to these noxious environmental
factors is a major goal of global public health."
