Recent years have presented many significant changes and opportunities for population health. Although Colorado has had great success in protecting environmental quality and population health, not all residents have the same opportunities to reach their best health or live in the healthiest environment. This plan elevates a shared vision and shared strategies on several key issues. It focuses in two flagship priority areas: obesity and mental health/substance abuse, issues that have been identified as public health priorities in most communities across the state. It also is intended to guide efforts to address the critical issues of health care access and coverage, marijuana and public health infrastructure and capacity. The priorities and objectives outlined in this plan are intended to provide support, guidance, and focus for public health activities throughout the state. Reaching these targets requires a statewide initiative, and success is possible only through strategic and coordinated state, regional and local efforts.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was introduced on December 2, 1970 by President Richard Nixon. The agency is charged with protecting human health and the environment, by writing and enforcing regulations based on laws passed by Congress. The EPA's struggle to protect health and the environment is seen through each of its official publications. These publications outline new policies, detail problems with enforcing laws, document the need for new legislation, and describe new tactics to use to solve these issues. This collection of publications ranges from historic documents to reports released in the new millennium, and features works like: Bicycle for a Better Environment, Health Effects of Increasing Sulfur Oxides Emissions Draft, and Women and Environmental Health.
