Over the last several years, multiple published papers have outlined the potential chemical and non-chemical hazards from oil and gas operations. In addition, studies specifically evaluating the relationship between living near oil and gas operations and the potential for certain adverse health effects have been widely publicized. This information led to heightened public and policy-maker concerns about whether or not harmful health effects occur in people living near oil and gas operations. In 2015, the Colorado Oil and Gas Task Force made several recommendations to the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment (CDPHE). Among them was a recommendation to review existing scientific literature and compile a summary of useful findings. That same year, CDPHE established the Oil and Gas Health Information and Response Program to respond to citizen health concerns and conduct evaluations of the exposure and health science related to oil and gas. An evaluation of the potential routes of exposures and types of public concerns reported to the program indicated that the greatest public health priority for evaluation was related to potential health effects from exposures to substances emitted into the air from oil and gas operations., "February 21, 2017.", Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed September 2025)
From the turn of the century through 2008, fewer Coloradans died of cardiovascular disease. Although fewer were dying of heart disease and stroke, more Coloradans were developing the risk factors that lead to cardiovascular disease. High blood pressure is pervasive, obesity rates have doubled and too few Coloradans get the nutritious food and physical activity needed to keep their hearts healthy. Research shows that social, economic and environmental factors have a significant impact on health outcomes., Description based on online resource; title from PDF cover; (viewed July 2015)
