Daily time-series regression models are commonly used to estimate the lagged nonlinear relation between temperature and mortality. A major impediment this type of analysis is restricted access daily health records. The use weekly monthly data represents a possible solution unexplored date.

Abstract Over 70,000 excess deaths occurred in Europe during the summer of 2003. The resulting societal awareness led to design and implementation adaptation strategies protect at-risk populations. We aimed quantify heat-related mortality burden 2022, hottest season on record Europe. analyzed Eurostat database, which includes 45,184,044 counts death from 823 contiguous regions 35 European countries, representing whole population over 543 million people. estimated 61,672 (95% confidence interval (CI) = 37,643–86,807) between 30 May 4 September 2022. Italy (18,010 deaths; 95% CI 13,793–22,225), Spain (11,324; 7,908–14,880) Germany (8,173; 5,374–11,018) had highest numbers, while (295 per million, 226–364), Greece (280, 201–355), (237, 166–312) Portugal (211, 162–255) rates. Relative population, we 56% more women than men, with higher rates men aged 0–64 (+41%) 65–79 (+14%) years, 80+ years (+27%). Our results call for a reevaluation strengthening existing heat surveillance platforms, prevention plans long-term strategies.

Abstract The impacts of climate change are unevenly distributed across territories. Less is known about the potential effects policies aimed at mitigating negative consequences while transitioning economies towards low-carbon standards. This paper presents an analytical framework for identifying and assessing regional green transition. We develop a Regional Green Transition Vulnerability Index, composite measure vulnerability European regions to socio-economic reconfigurations prompted by index brings light strong variations in vulnerability, with less developed, peri-urban rural Southern Eastern Europe more exposed foreseeable changes brought also draw attention rise pockets growing ‘green’ discontent, especially if transition contributes, as likely be case, leaving already left-behind further behind.

Effective management of water resources is crucial for global food security and sustainable development. In this Review, we explore the potential benefits challenges associated with treated wastewater (TW) reuse irrigation. Currently, 400 km3 yr−1 generated globally, but <20% treated, that TW, only 2–15% reused irrigation depending on region. The main limitation TW inability current treatment technologies to completely remove all micropollutants contaminants emerging concern, some which have unknown impacts crops, environment health. However, advanced schemes, supported by quality monitoring regulations, can provide a stable supply agricultural production, as demonstrated in regions such USA Israel. Such schemes could potentially serve net energy source, embedded exceeds needs 9 10 times. Agriculturally useful nutrients nitrogen, phosphorus potassium be also recovered reused. act major contributor circular economy development, first steps will funding implementation social acceptance. Treated alleviate imbalances boost production water-scarce regions, thus promoting security. This Review discusses widespread agriculture framework.

Traffic noise and air pollution are 2 major environmental health risk factors in urbanized societies that often occur together. Despite cooccurrence urban settings, have generally been studied independently, with many studies reporting a consistent effect on blood pressure for individual exposures. In the present reviews, we will discuss epidemiology of effects arterial hypertension cardiovascular disease (part I) underlying pathophysiology II). Both stressors found to cause endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, vascular inflammation, circadian activation autonomic nervous system, thereby facilitating development hypertension. We also interventions, current gaps knowledge, future research tasks. From societal policy perspective, both traffic observed well below guideline recommendations. To this end, an important goal is increase acceptance as modifiable factors, given their substantial impact burden disease.

Extreme weather events are expected to increase due climate change, which could pose an additional burden of morbidity and mortality. In recent decades, drought severity has increased in several regions around the world, affecting health by increasing risk water-, food-, vector-borne diseases, malnutrition, cardiovascular respiratory illness, mental disorders, Drought frequency worsen across large as a result decrease precipitation temperature atmospheric evaporative demand, posing pressing challenge for public health. Variation impacts among countries communities is multiple factors, such aging, socioeconomic status, access care, gender, population resilience. Integrative proactive action plans focused on management required, resources should be transferred developing reduce their vulnerability risk.

Ambient air pollution is a major risk to health and wellbeing in European cities. We aimed estimate spatial sector-specific contributions of emissions ambient evaluate the effects source-specific reductions pollutants on mortality cities support targeted actions address promote population health.We conducted impact assessment data from 2015 for 857 source annual PM2·5 NO2 concentrations using Screening High Emission Reduction Potentials Air quality tool. evaluated transport, industry, energy, residential, agriculture, shipping, aviation, other, natural, external sources. For each city sector, three levels were considered: same city, rest country, transboundary. Mortality estimated adult populations (ie, ≥20 years) following standard comparative methods calculate preventable NO2.We observed strong variability sectoral among PM2·5, main contributors residential (mean contribution 22·7% [SD 10·2]) agricultural (18·0% [7·7]) sectors, followed by industry (13·8% [6·0]), transport (13·5% [5·8]), energy (10·0% [6·4]), shipping (5·5% [5·7]).
