Environmental Factor
The main environmental factor that has the possibility of affecting the safety and health of infants is unsafe drinking water and poor sanitation (Adams, Sims, Bartram & Chartier, 2019).
In most scenarios, contaminated water results from poor care of the environment.
Lack of good care and education of children can cause poor sanitation.

Environmental factors
Ecological variables involves different components, for example,
Temperature
Food
Contaminations
Populace thickness,
Sound
Light and parasites
Every one of these elements have either sure or unfavorable impacts on the wellbeing of individuals and different animals (Yin and Tang, 2018).

Natural components include temperature, food, pollutants, populace thickness, sound, light, and parasites. The variety of natural burdens that have been appeared to cause an expansion in imbalance is most likely not selective; numerous different sorts of stress might give comparable impacts.

Population density
Population density insinuates t the quantity of individuals per assistant kilometer.
Urban communities are frequently the most thickly populated spots.
A portion of the attribute of thickly populated locales include:
Expanded number of vehicles
Unsanitary day to day environments
Packed houses
Restricted playing grounds and
Expanded danger of mishaps (Hayden, 2020)

Air contamination is a significant worry of new cultivated world, which has a genuine toxicological effect on human wellbeing and the climate. It has various distinctive emanation sources, however engine vehicles and modern cycles contribute the significant piece of air contamination. As indicated by the World Health Organization, six significant air contaminations incorporate molecule contamination, ground-level ozone, carbon monoxide, sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, and lead. every one of these poisons are a typical element in the urban communities and ghettos where there are numerous vehicles and ventures presenting extraordinary wellbeing dangers to kids.
3

Population density and children health risks
Some of the health risk posed to children in densely populated places include:
Increased fatalities due to road accidents
Increased respiratory illnesses due to air pollution
Rapid spread of communicable infections
Inadequate room for exercising
Poor quality of food and water among others
High risk of cardiovascular deceases
Risks of fires

Long and momentary presentation to air suspended poisons has an alternate toxicological effect on human including respiratory and cardiovascular illnesses, neuropsychiatric entanglements, the eyes disturbance, skin sicknesses, and long haul constant infections, for example, malignancy. A few reports have uncovered the immediate relationship between presentation to the helpless air quality and expanding pace of dismalness and mortality generally because of cardiovascular and respiratory sicknesses.

Causes of accidents among children
Most accidents result from falls while playing
Being hit by cars and motorbikes while crossing roads
Falling from story buildings in staircases
Falling into open ditches

suffocating.
Other basic causes of youngster passings and injuries include:
gagging, choking and suffocation
squashing and catching
smoke, fire and flares

Health promotion plan
The action plan for enhancing child safety would entail:
Raising awareness
Highlighting prevention mechanisms
Mobilizing action
Development of better safer housings and
Having adequate response mechanisms

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is committed to preventing child injury by supporting solutions that will save lives and help children live to their fullest potential. The National Action Plan for Child Injury Prevention was developed by CDC and more than 60 stakeholders to spark action across the nation. The National Action Plan’s overall goals are to:
Raise awareness about the problem of child injury and the effects on our nation.
Highlight prevention solutions by uniting stakeholders around a common set of goals and strategies.
Mobilize action on a national, coordinated effort to reduce child injury.

Accident prevention mechanisms
development of d safer infrastructure such as roads
children should be clothed in with helmets while riding
parental guidance as children play is fundamental

parents should accompany children on main roads

Youthful children are especially in danger in garages and yards. Babies and preschoolers may not yet understand that vehicles are risky. They can likewise move unobtrusively and rapidly. They get exceptionally ingested in whatever they’re doing, including pursuing a ball behind a vehicle. They regularly don’t stop, regardless of whether you ask them to.
