Der Klimawandel und seine Folgen bedrohen schon heute Millionen von Menschen weltweit. Wissenschaftler/-innen warnen seit Jahren davor, dass ein ungebremster Klimawandel die Welt ins Chaos führen wird. Obwohl der Klimaschutz seit Jahren im Zentrum der öffentlichen Debatte steht und auch weltweit i...n unzähligen Initiativen, Aktionsplänen und konkreter Politik Berücksichtigung findet, steigt der Ausstoß klimaschädlicher Treibhausgase nach wie vor.

Transmission of many infectious diseases depends on interactions between humans, animals, and the environment. Incorporating these complex processes in transmission dynamic models can help inform policy and disease control int...erventions. We identified 20 diseases involving environmentally persistent pathogens (ie, pathogens that survive for more than 48 h in the environment and can cause subsequent human infections), of which indirect transmission can occur from animals to humans via the environment.

Climate change has direct impacts on human health, but those impacts vary widely by location. Local health impacts depend on a large number of factors including specific regional climate impacts, demographics and human vulnerabil...ities, and existing local adaptation capacity. There is a need to incorporate local data and concerns into climate adaptation plans and evaluate different approaches.

The Lancet Planetary Health Volume 6, ISSUE 4, e342-e349, April 01, 2022. Human impacts on earth-system processes are overshooting several planetary boundaries, driving a crisis of ecological breakdown. This crisis is being caused in large part by global resource extraction, which has increased dra...matically over the past half century. We propose a novel method for quantifying national responsibility for ecological breakdown by assessing nations’ cumulative material use in excess of equitable and sustainable boundaries.
