ESSAYBID ANSWER

ANS: 1, 2, 3
Rationale:
Access to good education is a social indicator of health and disease risk, and improved education globally is a Millennium Goal. Erosion, contaminated groundwater, shrinking aquifers, air pollution, and urbanization are environmental factors that can result in unwelcome health effects, and thus protection of the environment is a Millennium Goal. Treating infectious diseases is a Millennium Goal, since the spread of infectious diseases can be influenced by changes in human behavior, often occurring at the family level. Improving the health of mothers, not fathers, is an international goal that improves overall population health.
