Health risks don't stop when extreme weather passes.
Emergency visits & deaths are higher for 2 & 6 weeks respectively after billion-dollar #climate disasters, according to a study by @HarvardChanSPH ClimateMD @ReneeNSalas_MD in @NatureMedicine

Thanks @1395FIVEaa for having me on air this morning to talk about 2023 as the hottest year, what that means for the health of our communities, and what we must do to protect our health and stay well during extreme weather.

This is amazing work.
As health professionals we have such a powerful platform to advance change, not just within health, but with health as a lever across all sectors.

"...climate change was threatening βthe very missionβ of why she went into medicine in the first place. She decided to dedicate her career to the climate-and-health overlap."
Thx @zteirstein for highlighting the work of @ReneeNSalas_MD and #ClimateMD

Today, the @AP and @grist launched a series on climate change and human health -- an overlap scientists all over the world are sounding alarm bells about.
Climate change threatens to undo 50 years of public health gains. It is the health story of our time.projects.apnews.com/featuresβ¦

This is what climate change looks like.
It's here.
It's not going away.
But we have control over how much worse things get, over how much the health of all people and things on this planet suffer. There is no more urgent health crisis.

At our @UN Headquarters in New York, we can feel the deteriorating air quality as smoke from the wildfires in Canada moves south.
With global temperatures on the rise, the need to urgently reduce wildfire risk is critical.
We must make peace with nature. We cannot give up.

By translating guidelines such as GRACE-3 swiftly into clinical practice, we can embed principles of 'low carbon, high value' care into practice.
Not performing a CT on every undifferentiated vertigo is not just good for patients - it's good for the planet too!

Tackling #climatechange and the impacts on health requires all of us - and requires us all to break out of our silos and unite. We can only do this if we do it together.
Thank you to organisations like @GCHAlliance helping us to do just that.

Recently I chatted to @CSPI Nutrition Action re the health impacts of climate change, and the impact that forced displacement due to climate change related extreme weather has on the health of communities.

The difference between 1.5C and 2C - and indeed 2.7C - is not just a planet that is a little warmer. This infographic from @IPCC_CH devastatingly illustrates just how much more we still have to lose. #climateMD #ClimateActionNow #IPCC

1.5C is unlikely, but it's still possible - we have to hold on to hope and work as hard as we can. We have a few years to give this everything we've got. #climatemd @DocsEnvAus @healthy_climate

How do #EmergencyMedicine, #publichealth and #climatechange intersect?
Here's a little about my journey how solutions for health impacts of climate change need holistic cross-sectoral approaches.
