Case Studies in Environmental and Planetary Health: Competencies and Frameworks offers an interdisciplinary lens to explore the principles, contexts, and challenges within the field of environmental health to effectively bridge theory and practice. Through historical and contemporary examples, the book highlights critical topics such as climate change, environmental justice, infectious disease, sustainability, and exposures to toxins and pollution. Students will develop a strong foundation in core areas of environmental health, including environmental epidemiology, toxicology, and exposure science, while gaining insights into how practitioners and scientists collaborate to address pressing public health issues on the frontlines. The featured real-world case studies serve as a gateway to understanding key concepts, integrating perspectives from public health, environmental policy, environmental engineering, and beyond. Each chapter combines foundational knowledge with practical applications, encouraging students to connect environmental health competencies and planetary health frameworks to their future work. Thoughtful discussion questions and activities challenge readers to critically analyze scenarios and consider innovative approaches to problem-solving in occupational, healthcare, and community settings. Case Studies in Environmental and Planetary Health equips learners with the tools and perspectives needed to navigate the complexities of environmental health and its impact on population and planetary health. Key Features: 16 detailed and engaging case studies that explore environmental and planetary health issues spanning environmental disasters to community development issues and that foster critical thinking and interdisciplinary analysis. Diverse authorship with interdisciplinary expertise prepares students for public health roles and a collaborative mindset. Scenario-based discussion questions and active learning activities designed to prepare future leaders to think about both public and planetary health. Competency-driven content mapped to key environmental health skills and knowledge areas. Qualified instructors have access to expanded Instructor Resources featuring chapter PowerPoints, a Sample Syllabus, Test banks, an Instructor Manual with learning activities for each chapter, and additional resources to supplement students' dynamic learning and interaction with the text.…
