Environmental noise is a pollutant considered by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a threat to public health due to its harmful effects on human health. In this regard, the European Environmental Agency (EEA) indicates that road traffic is the sound source that generates the greatest number of people exposed in Europe to sound levels above what is recommended by the European Noise Directive. In a similar way, the EEA also reports that air pollution is the most important environmental health risk in Europe, where road traffic is one of the main sources of emission of polluting gases. The relationship between both pollutants, leads to think about the development of common strategies. This paper presents a review on recent researches about the relationship of these two types of pollution in urban environments with different types of diseases.

Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) stresses the need to create active environments, able to promote physical activity of people, according to their ability. Objective; This paper describes a new tool curried out to meaasure the relationship between the characteristics of urban space and its salutogenicity, intended as its ability to address population toward healthy lifestyles. Salutogenity has been read in terms of ergonomics of urban space. Method: The tool includes a set of 67 parameters, classified in needs, requirements and performance. It focuses on three requirements: usability, wellbeing and safety. The related performances are measured by a set of 29 indicators, divided in 5 categories (natural elements, built environment, mobility, urban furniture and perceived environment). To calibrate the tool, it was applied to 10 neighborhoods of Rieti city. To take into account the relationship between the variables, a causal network (Bayesian network) was applied. Findings: The average value of ergonomics of Rieti city, obtained applying the discrete bayesian model is 44.25%. Using the network, it is evident that by intervening on one node, the information requested expands to all the other nodes to which it is connected directly or indirectly, showing all the possible related factors. Conclusions: By using the tool and the discrete bayesian network it was possible to focus on the realities requiring analysis and to indicate the areas where the first interventions would be useful to increase the value of the analyzed nodes and, consequently, to improve the urban salutogenicity.

Urban environments represent densely populated spaces characterized by people, built environments, and modes of transportation all in close proximity. Pollution as a by-product of these forces represents a substantial threat to the health of urban populations worldwide. Current World Health Organization estimates are that up to 7 million people die due to air pollution annually, with the vast majority of them in urban areas. Indoor and outdoor pollution to varying degrees in low- and high-income countries both represent threats to health in urban environments. This chapter discusses pollution as a challenge to urban health and the potential opportunities to improve population health represented by innovative approaches to minimize pollution in cities.
