Abstract

Children receive greater exposures to environmental pollutants present in air, food, and water because they inhale or ingest more air, food, or water on a body-weight basis than adults do. Communities of color are disproportionately exposed to hazardous wastes, dioxin, and air pollution. Existing data demonstrate that children of color are the subgroup of the population most exposed to certain pollutants, including lead, air pollution, and pesticides. Government standards do not take into account children's differential exposures or the cumulative nature of these exposures. Federal regulations fail to protect the most highly exposed and most sensitive subgroups of the population. More often than not this group is children of color.

摘要

由于儿童按体重计算吸入或摄入的空气、食物或水比成年人多,所以他们接触空气、食物和水中存在的环境污染物的机会更多。有色人种社区过多地暴露于危险废物、二恶英和空气污染之中。现有数据表明,有色人种儿童是人群中接触某些污染物(包括铅、空气污染和杀虫剂)最多的亚群体。政府标准没有考虑到儿童接触污染物的差异或这些接触的累积性质。联邦法规未能保护人群中接触污染物最多且最敏感的亚群体。这个群体往往是有色人种儿童。
