Mid-Atlantic Goods Movement Conference

The Mid-Atlantic region is long overdue for a conference that brings together various stakeholders to discuss the impact of goods movement on public health. Conference topics include goods movement industry trends in the Northeast, impacts on nearby communities, and collaboration to develop cost-effective solutions to reduce air pollution from goods movement. Bringing together health professionals and policy makers will allow these leaders to work together to develop and implement region-specific policies and solutions.

This is going to be a great conference on a badly needed topic. Goods Movement and the global market have major public health impacts. It’s time we fully consider the full health impact of human activities and the global economy.
