Pollution can be caused by a variety of activities: industry, agriculture, transport, human activity, household waste, etc. No matter where you are, there are always some traces of pollution. Although air quality is the most cross-cutting issue when it comes to pollution, it is important not to focus too narrowly, because human health and the environment are inextricably linked. That’s what Jacques Patris, Chairman of ATMO Hauts-de-France, explains in an interview.

The use of psychoactive substances, whether these are legal (tobacco, alcohol, anti-anxiety medications, hypnotic medications, opioid-based medications) or illegal (cannabis, cocaine, MDMA, new synthetic drugs, etc.), or screen-based behaviours (social networking, online sexual activities, gambling, video games, shopping) follows a gradual path from simple use to excessive or problematic use to addiction (also known as dependence).
