It reviews the environmental geochemical cycles of natural elements and persistent toxic substances (PTS) in the environment, highlighting the degradation of soil and water resources due to human activities such as extraction and usage of minerals. There is an attempt to provide evidence concerning the health effects of consuming contaminated food, due to frequent consumption of mercury-laden fish. Lastly, sources, fates, and ecological effects of various PTS are presented, including microplastics and associated chemicals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDetails linkages between the natural and disturbed chemical composition of the earth's surface, and environmental and human health, focusing on food contamination\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses emerging pollutants with potential widespread hazardous effects such as bisphenol A and phthalates\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eReviews safe food production and quality, as well as the management, regulation and policies concerning toxic chemicals\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eContains cutting edge knowledge on safe food production and remediating technologies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDescribes how geochemical cycling results in food contamination\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ming Hung Wong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032787066\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032787060\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 444\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Ming Hung Wong","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47758419165439,"sku":"9781032787060","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b48afbfb-67c1-4243-b703-bb9f67da0833.jpg?v=1765511342","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ecological-and-human-health-impacts-ming-hung-wong-9781032787060","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
