Environmentally responsible human genomic data governance: points for consideration.
We introduce five points for integrating environmental ethics into human genomic data governance: (i) recognizing the ethical imperative to consider environmental impacts of human genomic data; (ii) fostering collective responsibility for environmental harms; (iii) prospectively assessing benefits and harms; (iv) anticipating barriers to integration of environmental ethics into genomic data governance; and (v) meaningfully engaging all interest-holders. These points will be useful to all involved in the genomic data ecosystem.
