Environment-animal-human web: a “One Health” view of toxicological risk analysis

One health is a continuously developing field, that involves the multifaceted environment-animal-human web: nevertheless, the role of toxicological issues has yet to be  fully explored in this context, especially as regards experiences that can be transferred to health promotion and training. Food and environment do interact: environment influences the living organisms that produce human food and, in the meanwhile, food production outputs influence the environmental quality. As for foods of animal origin, feed materials and practices are furthercomponents of the environment-food interactions. In order to avoid “drowning into complexity”, priorities for riskanalysis (assessment/management/ communication) have to be identified. The proposed Frontiers issue intends totackle the environment-animal-human web in a comprehensive way, from environmental pollution through tofeedingstuffs, live animals, safe  and  sustainable food productions,  human risk assessment  and finally  communication and training. Namely, the papers in the Research Topic are expected encompass: pollution ofecosystems by pesticides and other contaminants; feed quality as determinant of the safety and nutritional value ofhuman food; biomonitoring of live animals; sustainability aspects of animal productions; pollution-related humanhealth issues from a global perspective; Experiences in communication, dissemination and training. The proposedapproach intends to provide multidisciplinary signposts based on local experiences to establish a global one–healthframework; moreover, the contributions would identify issues for a safe and sustainable international food market
