Mobility is a key livelihood and risk management strategy, including in the context of climate change. The COVID-19 pandemic has reinforced long standing concerns that migrant populations remain largely overlooked economic development, adaptation to change, spatial planning. We synthesize evidence across multiple studies confirms overwhelming preponderance in-country short distance rather than international migration change hotspots Asia Africa. emerging findings highlight critical importance addressing immobility intersecting social determinants influence who can move cannot development policy. This suggests more focused mobilities research agenda includes understanding drivers mobility multi-directional movement; factors determine for some others; implications under recovery.

Anthropogenic climate change is adversely impacting people and contributing to suffering increased costs from climate-related diseases injuries. In responding this urgent growing public health crisis, mitigation strategies are in place reduce future greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE) while adaptation exist and/or alleviate the adverse effects of by increasing systems’ resilience impacts. While these have numerous positive benefits on itself, they also often other externalities or co-benefits. This knowledge can be harnessed promote improve global health, particularly for most vulnerable populations. Previous conceptual models studies such as shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs) considered thinking, but outcomes were not their primary intention. Additionally, existing guidance documents World Health Organization (WHO) Guidance Climate Resilient Environmentally Sustainable Care Facilities designed primarily professionals healthcare managers hospital settings with a focus resilience.

The IPCC emphasises the need to centre climate change adaptation in actions due a lack of progress on meaningful mitigation. This requires expansion adaptive capacity across many sectors, including education. Research asserts key role formal education plays increasing learning and cognitive aspects associated capabilities, but further work is required understand impacts attempts enact such changes, specifically relation planning. Drawing impact data collected from an experimental place-based digital educational resource – Climate Smart that includes serious online play game, designed with for second level students aged 15–17 Ireland, this paper outlines challenges of, opportunities for, engaging young people about We conclude while innovations are impactful short-term essential developing foundational knowledge skills, as well shaping individual social norms, they will be insufficient alone optimise capabilities long term adaptation. Wider complementary structural changes multiple systems which support their functionalise required. Finally, prospective agenda progressing planning at its core outlined.

Various genetic and environmental risk factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Despite this, cause most ALS cases remains obscure. In this review, we describe current evidence implicating motor neuron degeneration. While exerted by many may appear small, their effect could be magnified presence a predisposition. We postulate that gene-environment interactions account for at least portion unknown etiology ALS. Climate underlies multiple factors, some which implied etiology, impact global temperature increase on should carefully monitored. main concepts underlying such interactions.

We used qualitative methods examine experiences relocation, including residents' accounts their quality life. In-depth interviews group discussions were conducted villagers living site at four points time (2015, 2016, 2019, 2020).

People affected by conflict are particularly vulnerable to climate shocks and change, yet little is known about change adaptation in fragile contexts. While events one of the many contributing drivers conflict, feedback from increases vulnerability, thereby creating conditions for a vicious cycle conflict. In this study, we carry out systematic review peer-reviewed literature, taking Global Adaptation Mapping Initiative (GAMI) dataset documenting occurring 15 conflict-affected countries compare findings with records finance flows climate-related disasters each country. Academic literature sparse most countries, available studies tend have narrow focus, on agriculture-related rural contexts low-income actors. contrast, multilateral bilateral funding addresses greater diversity needs, including water systems, humanitarian programming, urban areas. Even among selected, find disparity, several being focus substantial research funding, others seeing none.

Abstract New Yorkers face a multitude of health and safety risks that are exacerbated by changing climate. These include direct impacts from extreme weather events other climate hazards, as well indirect occurring through chain interactions. Physical safety, physical health, mental all part the equation—as many nonclimate factors interact with change to influence outcomes. This chapter provides an updated assessment these topics at intersection change, public equity in state York. Key findings presented below.
