"Thought Leaders on Infrastructure" video series --
In this video, CPIP Associate Director H. Oliver Gao, Ph.D., explains how infrastructure can not only improve lives, but can also cause adverse impacts to health. He emphasizes the need to mitigate negative impacts, such as combustion engine emissions, which kill more people per annum than motor vehicle accidents. Although changes in technology and human behavior will help us to solve these problems, policy makers need to be aware of health considerations when approving infrastructure projects.
