Environmental health is defined as the control of the factors (因素) in the environment that may have harmful effects on people’s physical, mental, or social well-being (安樂). Because natural disasters expose people to danger by bringing up or threatening their immediate environment, effective management of environmental health after a natural disaster is of great importance.
The environmental health measures that must be considered after a natural disaster include the supply of appropriate shelter for individuals or groups of people left homeless, the distribution (分配) of safe and accessible water, and the protection and distribution of safe food products and so on.
To effectively manage environmental health during and after a disaster, it is important that a state of preparation is in effect before the event actually occurs. During an emergency, success largely depends on making good, rapid judgment and appropriate response measures. High-level decision makers, therefore, must be familiar with sound measures beforehand and should be given an accurate judgment of the disaster’s specific effects as quickly as possible.
This book is intended to serve as a guide for those who may be called upon to make emergency decisions after disaster strikes. The recommended environmental health measures have been listed in the order of priority in which they should be taken during an emergency. However, each natural disaster is unique in the degree or type of emergency. In response to any given disaster, decision makers may find it necessary to change the priority assigned to any particular measure.

  It’s not the flashiest car in the world.Not even close.But the 1971 Volkswagen named Helios can do something most cars can’t :run on solar energy-energy from the sun’s light and head!

  Joshua Bechtold, 14,and the other students at the Riverside School in Lyndonville, Vermont, worked many months to get Helios ready.They named their car after Helios, the sun god in Greek mythology(神話).

  The 4-year-old Tour de Sol encourages the use of “green”, or environmen-tally friendly, cars to help reduce pollution and save energy.It’s not a race.Cars are judged on fuel efficiency(耗油量)rather than speed.In the week-long event, 44 cars took the 350-mile tour from Waterbury, Connecticut, to Lake George, New York.Of the 23 student cars, Helios was the only one built by middle school students.

  A teacher drove Helios, but the children talked with people wherever they stopped along the road.“That was my favorite part,” says Anna Browne,15.“We explained how the car runs.”

  Due in part to old, inefficient batteries(電池),Helios finished fourth-out of four-in its kind, the sun-powered class.“We were there for the fun of it,” Anna says, “We’re proud of Helios,”says Ariel Gleicher, 14.“It’s a car that’s good for the environment.”
