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

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

This video introduces the Planetary Boundaries Framework developed at the Stockholm Resilience Centre, and walks through several features of the interactive Planetary Boundaries applet developed at the King's Centre for Visualization in Scienc

Planetary Health is a scientific discipline, a philosophy for living and a social movement. The first lecture will gave an introduction to key aspects, latest developments and emerging solutions. Dr. Samuel Myers, Director of the Planetary Health Alliance, focused on planetary health as a scientific discipline as well as emerging solutions. Melvine Otieno, initiator of the planetary health hub in Eastern Africa, talked about the situation in Kenya and eastern Africa. Martin Herrmann, chair of the German Climate Change and Health Alliance, pointed to the highly dynamic and fastly growing planetary health movement in the German speaking countries. The movement has its focus on converting knowledge into transformative action

Wenn wir den Planeten erhalten wollen, braucht es eine globale Ernährungswende. Ist die "Planetary Health Diet" eine Lösung?

Video discusses ways that climate change can impact community health, and things communities can do to prepare.
