| Description |
Arsenic (As) is a naturally occurring chemical element widely distributed in the Earth's crust. Human activities have significantly altered As presence in the environment, posing significant threats to the biota as well as human health. The environmental fates and adverse outcomes of As of various species have been extensively studied in the past few decades. It is imperative to summarize these advances as a whole to provide more profound insights into the As cycle for sustainable development. Embracing the One Health concept, we systematically reviewed previous studies in this work and explored the following three fundamental questions, i.e., what the trends and associated changes are in As contamination, how living organisms interact and cope with As contamination, and most importantly what to do to achieve a sustainable future with As. By focusing on one critical question in each section, this review aims to provide a full picture of the complexity of environmental As. To tackle the significant research challenges and gaps in As pollution and mitigation, we further proposed a One Health framework with potential coping strategies, guiding a coordinated agenda on dealing with legacy As in the environment and ensuring a sustainable As future.
