Washington: Health problems related to climate change are all worse, according to two reports published Wednesday.
The annual report assigned by the Lancet medical journal tracks 44 global health indicators connected with climate change, including heat death, infectious diseases, and hungry.
Everyone gets Grimmer, said the research director of the Countdown Lancet Project Marina Romanello, a biochemist.
“Increased temperature is a consequence,” said the University of Washington Professor of Environmental Health Kristie Ebi, a writer’s writer.
This year’s report – one global, one is only intended for the United States – called “red code for a healthy future,” highlight of dangerous trends: – vulnerable population – parents and very young – subject to hazardous heat last year.
For people over 65, the researchers counted there were 3 billion exposure to “day people” for extreme heat than the average from 1986 to 2005.
– More people are in places where climate-sensitive diseases can develop.
The coastline area is warm enough for nasty vibrio bacteria in the Baltic, US Northeast and Pacific Northwest in the past decade.
In some poor countries, seasons for mosquitoes that spread malaria have grown since the 1950s.
“The red code is not even enough color for this report,” said Stanford University Stanford Tropical Medicine Professor Dr.
Michele Barry, who was not part of the study team.
Compared to the last lancet report, “this one is a serious realization that we will be fully in the WRO direction.” In the US, heat, fire and drought caused the biggest problem.
The Pacific Northwest and Canada Heat Waves that have been unprecedented this summer, indicated by previous studies cannot occur without climate change caused by humans.
Study of Fellow Author Dr.
Jeremy Hess, a professor of environmental health and emergency treatment at the University of Washington, said he witnessed the impact of climate change while working in the Seattle emergency room during the heat.
“I saw the paramedics that had been burned to kneel to take care of patients with hot strokes,” he said.
“And I see too many patients die” from the heat.
Another ero doctor in Boston said science now shows what he has seen for years, quoting asthma from allergies who deteriorate as one example and especially the health crisis.
Took place throughout the US, “said Dr.
Renee Salas, also a reporter of the report.
George Washington University School of Health Dean Dean Drnn Goldman, who is not part of the project, said the health problem of climate change” continues to deteriorate much faster than which will be projected just a few years ago.
“The report said 65 of 84 countries included subsidizing fossil fuel combustion, which caused climate change.
Doing this” feels like taking care of a very painful patient while someone turns it on cigarettes and junkon, a community health professor who is not part of the study.
