Given that health is a Gestalt comprised of social, mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional elements, that together form the well-being of our human species, we cannot discount the effect of planetary health on the composite of human health. In March 2019, the United Nations global human development program published a <em>Guidance Note<\/em> that provided direction with regard to planetary health and human health. In this guidance note Jon Hall and Midori Paxton report that planetary health, and specifically biodiversity, are linked directly to human development and subsequently human health.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"http:\/\/pressbooks.library.upei.ca\/planetaryhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2022\/04\/chris-leboutillier-c7RWVGL8lPA-unsplash-air-pollution-scaled-e1650990780745.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"387\" height=\"517\" class=\"size-full wp-image-196 alignleft\" \/>\r\n\r\nHumans, despite their best intentions, have for the most part destroyed the biodiversity of our planet and therefore continue to have a direct negative impact on the capacity to maintain a healthy human civilization. The report by Hall and Paxton outlines the loss of biodiversity over the past <span style=\"background-color: #ffff00\">xxxx years<\/span> and the subsequent impact of such destruction on the constituents of the biosphere upon which human civilization depends. Air, water, land management, and food security, are all essential to maintaining a healthy human civilization. However, in our pursuit of human development we ignored many of the elements that make earth diverse and which provide for us as a human species.\r\n\r\nPlanetary health and human development considered either independently or combined, represent a wicked problem. That is, human development is messy it is complicated and it creates complex outcomes which cannot be resolved simply and especially when we have directly impacted the species upon which we depend. For example, there have been several reports of the loss of our pollinators as a result of our loss of biodiversity. Combine these losses with the effects of drought and severe intense heat in our environments and it is no wonder that we are becoming a planet that is food insecure for much of our civilization. We cannot continue to maintain adequate food sources for the world if we continue to destroy the biosphere through our wilful social and economic development which are often based on wasteful practices, human greed, and of course war.\r\n<hr \/>The future is Now!\r\n[h5p id=\"15\"]\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n\r\nEXPOSOMES -- and the relation to phenotypic effects.\r\n<img src=\"http:\/\/pressbooks.library.upei.ca\/planetaryhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2022\/11\/exposome01CDC_NIOSH.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"170\" height=\"127\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-894\" \/>\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/niosh\/topics\/exposome\/default.html\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n\r\nInformation for Bibliography\r\n\r\nOlusanya, B.O., (2010) Intrauterine growth restriction in a low-income country: Risk factors, adverse perinatal outcomes and correlation with current WHO Multicenter Growth Reference, <em>Early Human Development<\/em>, Volume 86, Issue 7, Pages 439-444,\r\nISSN 0378-3782, https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/j.earlhumdev.2010.05.023.\r\n\r\n<span>Eriksson J.
