This standard asks you to explain how a current environmental issue affects human health — both the good and bad impacts. You need to identify ways to reduce the negative effects or boost the positive ones, showing you understand the real-world connections between what happens to our environment and how it affects the people living in it.
You identify an environmental issue, describe both positive and negative health impacts, and suggest one way to improve the situation.
You illustrate the health impacts with examples relevant to different groups of people (yourself, others, the wider community) and explain your improvement strategies thoughtfully.
You explain the health impacts with clear reasoning that shows understanding beyond the immediate situation, and explain why your suggested strategies would reduce negative or increase positive effects.
