High temperatures on mental health: Recognizing the association and the need for proactive strategies—A perspective

Health Science Reports, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 6(12)

Опубликована: Дек. 1, 2023

Abstract Background and Aims The influence of temperature on various aspects daily life is often underestimated, its effects mental health are not widely recognized. Understanding addressing the relationship between well‐being crucial in context climate change rising global temperatures. This perspective aimed to investigate high temperatures identify proactive strategies mitigate these effects. Methods adopted a twofold approach, including comprehensive literature review socioecological framework. involved extensive searches across Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus relevant, peer‐reviewed articles, reports from diverse disciplines. Results emphasized significance recognizing heat stress consequences well‐being. Chronic can lead increased stress, anxiety, cognitive impairment. Vulnerable populations include, very young, older adults, individuals with pre‐existing conditions. Socioeconomic factors further exacerbate vulnerability, highlighting need for tailored manage challenges during Additionally, article identified discussed coping minimize both psychological physical impacts stress. Mindfulness, management techniques, therapy suggested as effective means distress. Conclusion Implementing preventive measures essential steps promoting wellness Proactive by physiological considering specific needs vulnerable help communities navigate posed promote resilience preserve their

Proposed solutions to anthropogenic climate change: A systematic literature review and a new way forward

Heliyon, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 9(10), С. e20544 - e20544

Опубликована: Окт. 1, 2023

Humanity is now facing what may be the biggest challenge to its existence: irreversible climate change brought about by human activity. Our planet in a state of emergency, and we only have short window time (7–8 years) enact meaningful change. The goal this systematic literature review summarize peer-reviewed on proposed solutions last 20 years (2002–2022), propose framework for unified approach solving crisis. Solutions reviewed include transition toward use renewable energy resources, reduced consumption, rethinking global transport sector, nature-based solutions. This highlights one most important but overlooked pieces puzzle problem – gradual shift plant-based diet phaseout factory (industrialized animal) farming, damaging prolific form animal agriculture. industrialized farming can achieved increasingly replacing meat other products with products, ending government subsidies animal-based meat, dairy, eggs, initiating taxes such products. Failure act will ultimately result scenario widespread famine disease, devastation, refugees, warfare. We therefore suggest an "All Life" approach, invoking interconnectedness all life forms our planet. logistics achieving standardization Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) or similar measures introduction regulatory body verification measures. These approaches help deliver environmental sustainability benefits far beyond immediate reduction warming.

Advances in environmental engineering and green technologies book series, Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown, С. 50 - 80

Опубликована: Авг. 14, 2024

This chapter addressed the phenomenon of land degradation, identified its causes, and pointed out importance addressing sustainable development in order to address priority challenges desertification, drought, preventing mitigating deforestation, climate change, as well rural urban use growth. Urbanization by promoting policies practices related management improving ecosystems achieve a world free degradation. These include: agroforestry, cover crops, grazing pastures, integrated planning, monocultures, avoiding excessive withdrawal limited water resources. discusses scientifically based, sound socially inclusive methods indicators for monitoring assessing extent drought. She also referred degradation through better understanding impact degree, familiarity with climate, soil, water, cover, social economic factors.

Analyzing temperature, humidity, and precipitation trends in six regions of Thailand using innovative trend analysis

Scientific Reports, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 14(1)

Опубликована: Апрель 2, 2024

The change of temperature and weather parameters is a major concern affecting sustainable development impacting various sectors, such as agriculture, tourism, industry. Changing patterns their impact on water resources are important climatic factors that society facing. In Thailand, climatological features ambient temperature, relative humidity, precipitation play substantial role in extreme events, which cause damage to the economy, livelihood people. To investigate recent serious changes annual trends this study used Mann-Kendall (MK) test innovative trend analysis (ITA) methods. MK showed all six regions had an upward humidity index (humidex, how hot feels average person), while both downward across different regions. ITA method further confirmed humidex most data points fell above 1:1 line. However, variables was not significant at 5% level. southern eastern level significance according test. output can help understanding variations predict future situations be for adaptation strategies.
