The 2024 report of the Lancet Countdown on health and climate change: facing record-breaking threats from delayed action
https://www.thelancet.com/action/showPdf?pii=S0140-6736%2824%2901822-1
“Executive summary
Despite the initial hope inspired by the 2015 Paris Agreement, the world is now dangerously close to breaching its target of limiting global multiyear mean heating to 1·5°C. Annual mean surface temperature reached a record high of 1·45°C above the pre-industrial baseline in 2023, and new temperature highs were recorded throughout 2024. The resulting climatic extremes are increasingly claiming lives and livelihoods worldwide.
The Lancet Countdown: tracking progress on health and climate change was established the same year the Paris Agreement entered into force, to monitor the health impacts and opportunities of the world’s response to this landmark agreement. Supported through strategic core funding from Wellcome, the collaboration brings together over 300 multidisciplinary researchers and health professionals from around the world to take stock annually of the evolving links between health and climate change at global, regional, and national levels.
The 2024 report of the Lancet Countdown, building on the expertise of 122 leading researchers from UN agencies and academic institutions worldwide, reveals the most concerning findings yet in the collaboration’s 8 years of monitoring.”

I'm sure smog has an effect on health. But I'm also sure that a safe and effective experimental treatment also has an effect on human health
insurance system is unfit for the kind of catastrophic events that we can expect. Look at those people who had lost their home because it was entirely wrecked down by water, i think not only to spain with rainfall, but also those areas that are flooded from below because of a vast excess. Their insurance will simply not cover the loss of a life investment. Other systems and mechanisms has to come in to do something meaningful. In my country we have a dedicated fund for that matter, state will buy-back the property if it is deemed unsuitable, not full price afaik, but still pretty good, and certainly better than an insurance would do. Of course in front of the millions of home in peril, even such system will fail ultimately. But at some point, some people will have to face the fact that the financial institutions, in their appreciation of the reality, their way of doing, are unfit to a world that degrades by the years. of course, the de-entanglement of such system built at its core to entangle everybody into a dependence system will make some troubles….
At 600 ppm CO2, test results deminish. So how is 420 ppm exposure 24/7 affecting the human mind since this species has never existed in this high of CO2 before.
Very good report, new fresh views on topics already discussed elsewhere. Maybe people will be listen more to "health risks" (related close to them) than "climate change" (something abstract, not touchable). Thank you, great job! 👍🕊🌍
There will come a time in the not too distant future where the word economics becomes completely meaningless to humans.
OVERPOPULATION is the greatest global health threat!!! Overpopulation causes all the problems.

1.5 is unalived 😵
1.5 is unalived 😵
seeing as gw is bad for h health and healthy h's are causing gw, i conclude that rapid degradation of h health is necessary to slow gw to improve h health
If we work REALLY hard we can prevent crossing that benchmark we already crossed. Everybody in?

Nice thumbnail Paul
You know your dog is slowly taking over the channel.. 😉
Just dipping into “Entangled” a book on fungi. One thing made apparent in the first few pages is how central this kingdom is to all life including our own health and our food. Chopping up land for mono crops destroys biome, and fungi is central to all biome, destroying the very thing shaping regional climate. They don’t not just sequester co2
Hey Paul, FYI it's pronounced "dangay" fever 😉
Not only are we at risk of more health problems, at some point our current health systems are going to become compromised for a variety of reasons associated with climate breakdown.
Paul your room looking a little cluttered again ❤ just a friendly reminder. Sometimes I benefit from those too
😂 Oh yes, acid rain feel like needles under a stripped sky, water is plastic smooth and now that we save the plants with co2 increase, nature will sacrifice us all on the altar of the sacred green giant crabe. 😂
Kitty doggie…they know your out of there without them…
Dogs xan understand anywhere from 500-5000 worda and string any twobof them together. Its good to tell your oets that your keavinga and coming back. Labradoodles are very high pre frontal cotex so no surprise Newton knows whats going on.
Eat beef! Ask Shawn Baker, MD.
@paulhbeckwith please review the papers regarding cognitive decline beginning with CO2 levels as low as 500. We’re at 420…going up. Inside air is even worse.
I believe a dumbing down of all populations is probably important.
What will stop the CO2 levels from rising?
Hello.
I'm Paul Beckwith.
Oh.
Wrong (but right video)
The worst implication for abrupt climate change wrecking human health, is that its hard to be healthy and extinct at the same time.

Glad you're going to the COP, I know you'll be fearless and vocal in calling out fossil lobbyists and their pet politicians. Consider stopping in a couple places on the way back if you can spare the time.
Here in Los Angeles, A. egypti has arrived, and we'll soon have endemic Yellow Fever, Dengue, Chikungunya and Zika.
(dengue is pronounced *Deng*.gay, not .goo)
Climate change is just getting started. The world will look very different in 50 years from now.
drug company owners and investors froth at the mouth when they hear slow health degradation
Nice dog.
"Heat-attributable mortality fractions have declined over time in most countries owing to general improvements in health care systems, increasing prevalence of residential air conditioning, and behavioural changes. These factors, which determine the susceptibility of the population to heat, have predominated over the influence of temperature change." IPCC
"As regards disease, the Lancet's Countdown on Health and Climate Change (2019) shows Climate-related deaths are a small proportion of all-cause fatalities (1990–2017). That is based on data per IHME (2019), and between 1990 and 2017, the cumulative age-standardized death rate (ASDRs) from climate-sensitive diseases and events (CSDEs) dropped from 8.1% of the all-cause ASDR to 5.5%, while the age-standardized burden of disease, measured by disability-adjusted life years lost (DALYs) declined from 12.0% to 8.0% of all-cause age-standardized DALYs. Thus, the burdens of death and disease from CSDEs are small, and getting smaller.
However, the declines in death and disease rates from CSDEs since 1990 are only a small proportion of longer-term declines across the globe. In the USA, one of the few places with good long-term data, death rates from dysentery, typhoid, paratyphoid, other gastrointestinal diseases, and malaria – all water-related diseases and therefore, almost by definition, climate-sensitive declined 99–100% between 1900 and 1970.
We are solving our problems with CSDEs faster than we are solving our other health problems."

If you're worried about deaths due to climate, cold temperature events are the big killer, not heat. It is estimated that 5.1 million people annually die in association with non-optimal temperatures. 4.6 million are linked to the cold, so over 90% (Zhao et al, 2021). And it is worst in the warmer parts of the world. 98% of temperature related deaths in SubSaharan Africa are due to the cold. Temperature events may be linked to upto 10% of human deaths annually. In a warming world there will be less death.
There are over 5 million excess deaths per annum globally due to abnormal temperatures from the 2000-2019 study led Prof. Guo of Monash University. It found that over 90% of excess deaths were caused by excess COLD rather than excess heat. So, in a world with increasingly mild temperatures, there will be less excess death. Lives will be saved. Warming is good not bad.
A 2022 Lancet study reported 791 heat-related excess deaths and 60,753 cold-related excess deaths in England and Wales each year during the years spanning 2000-2019. That’s an excess death ratio of about 85 to 1 for cold vs. hot temperatures.
Due to warmer urban temperatures, the number of premature cold-related excess deaths avoided averaged 447 per year from 1976-2019 in the city of London alone (Hajat et, 2024).
Hope the trip goes well…
literally no one seems to care tho. it's funny watching humanity go head first into oblivion fully ignorant to the situation.
