Abstract
The relationship between the geological environment and human health is still not better understood. This study aims to evaluate the degree of influence on human health and the suitability of the living environment. We established a new evaluation framework of the geological environment and human health. The evaluation framework selects four core geological environment indicators related to health: soil, water, geological landform, and atmosphere. The results showed that the atmospheric and water resource indicators were generally good, and the scores of geological landforms differed due to the topography. The evaluation result showed that the soil pollution elements did not exceed the national standard, and the value of the beneficial element Se greatly exceeded the local background value. Our research highlights the geological factors that affecting human health, explores the geological resources that serve and influence human health, and finally proposes planning strategies to harmful health risks and improve health factors.
