<br />while still reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fossil fuel use. The
<br />HIA included eight objectives and associated priority actions, and ex-
<br />plored how each had the potential to impact health. For example, the
<br />first two objectives addressed the need for higher density areas and the
<br />Several tools can assist with incorporating health determinants and
<br />health outcomes into planning assessments. Three tools in particular
<br />can assist planners and other land -use decision makers the Healthy

<br />creation of "zo-minute neighborhoods," defined by the CEAP as "those
<br />in which a significant number of regular trips can be made in zo minutes
<br />without using an automobile." According to the CEAP, zo-minute neigh-
<br />borhoods could increase physical activity, decrease collision fatalities,
<br />and lower air pollution by encouraging travel by walking or biking.
