2023 will mark the 75th year of the World Health Organization. The world has achieved many public health milestones in these 75 years. In Science in 5 today we will take a look into the future - to understand what are the innovations we can expect and what will be some of our biggest challenges. Here to paint us a picture of what Health for All would look like in the future is WHO's Chief Scientist, Dr Soumya Swaminathan

The global proportion of people at risk to heat stress is increasing. The Lancet Countdown is tracking our exposure and vulnerability to changes in heat caused by climate change.

Introduction Video for the Planetary Health Toolbox in MEDBOX. The health of "Patient Earth" is critical. Therefore, the MEDBOX team is committed to the topic and presents you: the Planetary Health Toolbox. The Planetary Health Toolbox covers documents from climate change issues to health consequences. Specific topics like One Health, infectious and non-communicable diseases, biodiversity, or the impact on food and nutrition. The included documents are suitable for health professionals and civil society alike

As the global impact of climate change accelerates, there is increasing awareness that human health is severely threatened. Just what are these threats to health and what can we do about them? UCSF faculty and associates examined the effects of global warming on individual patient health and explore fundamental principles of public health, challenges in climate health and science communication, and the big picture of global warming effects on populations

This film provides the keys to understand how climate will reshape our landscapes and lifestyles over the coming decades. ... and to enable us to better anticipate the need for human societies to adapt to this partly inevitable climate change

We find ourselves actors in one of history’s greatest dramas—a lone species with an exceptional talent for bending the natural world toward our will, spinning through space on a stunning but fragile planet. We are waking up to planetary health - the understanding that our disruption of Nature is threatening not just other species but also ourselves. Many of the solutions are in front of us. Do we have the will to implement them in time

For the first time, we are forced to consider the real risk of destabilizing the entire planet," says climate impact scholar Johan Rockström. In a talk backed by vivid animations of the climate crisis, he shows how nine out of the 15 big biophysical systems that regulate the climate -- from the permafrost of Siberia to the great forests of the North to the Amazon rainforest -- are at risk of reaching tipping points, which could make Earth uninhabitable for humanity. Hear his plan for putting the planet back on the path of sustainability over the next 10 years -- and protecting the future of our children
