Global warming poses risks to mental health according to a review by the American Psychological Association. Increased temperatures are linked to more alcohol and substance abuse as well as increased violence. Food and water shortages threaten security and cause problems like PTSD. Prolonged drought in Australia leads to "solastalgia," distress over environmental losses. Poor air quality raises anxiety. Panic and hysteria may arise from diseases. Those with schizophrenia face particular risks. Overall, climate change risks large-scale conflicts over displacement and scarce resources. However, most countries have inadequate mental healthcare resources for climate-related issues compared to physical healthcare. Psychology can help understand behaviors driving climate change to help address this global problem.National Adaptation Forum - Heat, Floods and Diseases - Integrating climate c...

Over the past century in the U.S., there has been a reversal in morbidity and mortality trends due to advances in public health and healthcare. Chronic diseases are now the leading causes of death but researchers focus on prevention through community interventions. Significant accomplishments like vaccinations for diseases have led to declines in cases, hospitalizations, and costs. Applying community health education theories that target social and behavioral norms through multi-level interventions may have also contributed to reduced morbidity and mortality.
The Path Forward: Heat - Jeremy Hess Slides
The document discusses how the environment is a major determinant of health. It presents research showing relationships between environmental factors like climate, agriculture, energy use, and coastal damages, and health outcomes like mortality, labor productivity, and crime rates. The goal should be a "health in all policies" approach where health considerations are incorporated into decision making across all sectors and policy areas, using structural interventions and themes of context, engagement, optimal timing and unintended consequences. Anchor institutions like universities can play a key role by utilizing their data and resources to map risks and take actions to protect community health.

Heat stress and well-being impact
This study examined the association between heat stress interfering with daily activities and health and well-being outcomes using data from a large national cohort of Thai adults. The study found negative health and well-being outcomes including worse emotional problems, lower energy levels, and lower life satisfaction were associated with increasing frequency of heat stress interfering with daily activities like sleeping, daily travel, work, housework and exercise. Adverse health outcomes were greatest when heat stress interfered with sleeping. The study points to the need for improved public health monitoring and awareness of heat stress risks given rising temperatures from climate change.

This presentation discusses the relationship between extreme weather events and human health in a changing climate. It summarizes research analyzing heat wave events and their relationship to mortality rates in the United States. The presentation finds that the number of heat waves has increased in recent decades, especially in the Southeast, and that the duration and intensity of events has also risen. It explores using climate and health data to better understand how changes in extreme temperatures relate to changes in mortality rates. The goal is to publish results and provide information to public health organizations to help prepare for health impacts of climate change.Article
The United States experienced its second warmest year on record in 2015, with an average temperature of 2.4°F above the 20th century average. This made 2015 the second warmest year since record keeping began in 1895. There were 10 weather disasters costing over $1 billion each, resulting in 155 deaths and significant economic costs. A strong El Nino contributed to extreme weather events and made 2015 one of the wettest years for the contiguous US, though California experienced its worst drought in over 100 years. NOAA scientists predict that 2015 will likely be the hottest year globally on record.

The COVID-19 crisis could provide an opportunity to make cities more sustainable, livable, and healthy. Lockdowns have significantly reduced traffic, air pollution, and noise levels while increasing use of public spaces. This shows solutions that could include increasing active transportation like walking and cycling through infrastructure changes, reducing car dependency, and greening cities. A holistic, multi-sectoral approach is needed to simultaneously tackle health, environment, and social issues through initiatives like Barcelona's superblocks model of reallocating public space.Activate learning proposal
This programme aims to equip graduates with the skills to contribute to global food security efforts in the 21st century. The MSc consists of six taught courses over two semesters covering frameworks for food security assessment, sustainable food production, and food systems interrelationships, plus a dissertation. Course options address topics like ecosystem services, environmental change, economics, and resource management. The programme includes a field trip applying principles to real-world scenarios.
Hidden costs of climate change in us
This study finds that the costs of climate change in the US are major, widespread, and often uncounted. The impacts will affect all sectors throughout the country, such as floods in the Great Plains, higher shipping costs in the Midwest, and sea level rise in the Northeast. While some regions may see temporary benefits from climate change, like reduced energy demands, the negatives are expected to outweigh the positives. Public sector budgets will also feel increased pressure due to rising infrastructure costs, potentially leading to higher taxes or reduced services. The report recommends immediate adaptation efforts and investments, as well as more extensive research to better quantify the full hidden costs of climate change nationwide.

Common cold dietary supplements
Vitamin C does not prevent the common cold but may decrease the severity and duration of symptoms. Vitamin D may decrease the incidence of influenza and other viral infections as well as tuberculosis. Zinc does not prevent the common cold but also decreases severity and duration of symptoms. Probiotics do not prevent respiratory infections but may decrease severity and duration of symptoms. Xylitol decreases the risk of ear infections by 32%. Garlic may decrease the risk of the common cold, but the evidence comes from one study.

- Climate change is occurring due to greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel combustion and will negatively impact human health through various pathways such as increased heat waves, floods, droughts, changes in disease vectors, and effects on malnutrition.
- Populations in low-income countries will be most vulnerable to these health effects, though even high-income countries like those in Europe were adversely affected during the 2003 heat wave.
- Adaptation is needed through public health strategies and surveillance, while mitigation efforts to reduce greenhouse gases through renewable energy and energy efficiency can also improve near-term health by lowering air pollution exposure.

Climate change threatens human health in the United States. This scientific assessment was developed to understand and inform decisions about this growing threat. The purpose is to provide a comprehensive estimate of observed and projected climate-related health impacts. Climate change is projected to increase heat-related deaths and illnesses while decreasing cold-related deaths. It will also exacerbate ozone pollution, increase health impacts from wildfires and extreme weather, and alter the spread of vector-borne diseases.
climatechange_global_overview
This document provides an overview of the global health risks from climate change. It finds that continued high greenhouse gas emissions could cause global temperatures to rise 4°C by 2100, severely disrupting precipitation and extreme weather. This would result in an additional 250,000 deaths per year by 2030 from impacts on diseases like malnutrition, malaria and diarrhea. However, reducing emissions and implementing policies that improve health and address air pollution can limit warming to under 2°C, avoiding severe risks while also saving millions of lives per year from improved air quality. Coordinated global action is needed to transition to cleaner energy systems and implement measures that both mitigate climate change and have significant health benefits.

Climate change is exacerbating health issues and creating new ones. To adapt, the health sector must invest in infrastructure that is resilient to climate impacts like extreme weather. It must also strengthen disease surveillance and implement public health programs to prevent the spread of climate-sensitive illnesses. Community engagement is key, as local input ensures strategies meet each community's unique needs. Together, infrastructure upgrades, public health interventions, and community involvement can help protect health as the climate changes.

The Fascinating World of Bats: Unveiling the Secrets of the Night
The Fascinating World of Bats: Unveiling the Secrets of the Night
Bats, the mysterious creatures of the night, have long been a source of fascination and fear for humans. With their eerie squeaks and fluttering wings, they have captured our imagination and sparked our curiosity. Yet, beyond the myths and legends, bats are fascinating creatures that play a vital role in our ecosystem.
There are over 1,300 species of bats, ranging from the tiny Kitti's hog-nosed bat to the majestic flying foxes. These winged mammals are found in almost every corner of the globe, from the scorching deserts to the lush rainforests. Their diversity is a testament to their adaptability and resilience.
Bats are insectivores, feeding on a vast array of insects, from mosquitoes to beetles. A single bat can consume up to 1,200 insects in an hour, making them a crucial part of our pest control system. By preying on insects that damage crops, bats save the agricultural industry billions of dollars each year.
But bats are not just useful; they are also fascinating creatures. Their ability to fly in complete darkness, using echolocation to navigate and hunt, is a remarkable feat of evolution. They are also social animals, living in colonies and communicating with each other through a complex system of calls and body language.
Despite their importance, bats face numerous threats, from habitat destruction to climate change. Many species are endangered, and conservation efforts are necessary to protect these magnificent creatures.
In conclusion, bats are more than just creatures of the night; they are a vital part of our ecosystem, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature. By learning more about these fascinating animals, we can appreciate their importance and work to protect them for generations to come. So, let us embrace the beauty and mystery of bats, and celebrate their unique place in our world.
