Children have unusual patterns of exposure to environmental chemicals, and they have vulnerabilities that are quite distinct from those of adults. Increasingly, children's exposures to chemicals in the environment are understood to contribute to the causation and exacerbation of certain chronic, disabling diseases in children including asthma, cancer, birth defects, and neurobehavioral dysfunction. The protection of children against environmental toxins is a major challenge to modern society.
儿童接触环境化学物质的方式不同寻常，且他们具有与成年人截然不同的脆弱性。人们越来越认识到，儿童接触环境中的化学物质会导致并加剧儿童的某些慢性致残疾病，包括哮喘、癌症、出生缺陷和神经行为功能障碍。保护儿童免受环境毒素侵害是现代社会面临的一项重大挑战。
