Diversity has become a crucial component of institutions today. Therefore, there is the need for the society to embrace diversity when tackling social issues. One of the benefits of diversity is the multiple perspectives and lifestyles it brings in institutions and the society. This is why any attempt to discuss or solve a social problem has to consider the diversity of populations. Equity is also a crucial component of social life because people’s interest should be balanced to find lasting solutions to problems. My research process aimed at establishing the link between diversity, equity, and healthy living in communities today. I prepared several artifacts in this regard, namely “A Day in the Life of Robert Carradine,” “Cleanups in my Community,” “Soil Ingestion and Human Health,” “Children’s Value,” and “Critical Analysis of ‘Exposure Factors Handbook’”.

Diversity informs the manner in which people look at life. In the case of Robert Carradine, for instance, he was apprehensive that healthy living coupled with regular exercises would see him live longer and progress in his law career. Some people might not find importance in these things but the society is one after all. Carradine’s actions contribute to the conservation of the environment, as he chooses to cycle to work instead of driving, and using a smart shower to regulate the amount of water he uses to bathe. On the other hand, the remaining articles explore the importance of having a clean environment. The exposure to an environment determines what a person becomes because human DNA is sensitive to environmental compositions such as toxic chemicals and excess heat.

             The thorough interdisciplinary research that underwent the preparation of the artifacts reveals that diversity and equity can make the world a better place if harnessed appropriately. For example, lazy and reluctant people can emulate their counterparts who have chosen healthy lifestyles. There is also nothing wrong in responsible behavior to make the environment clean at all times. In as much a people are allowed to live their lifestyles and make choices, this should not come at a cost to the lives of other people.
