Global Climate Change and Public Health will serve as a general introduction to the field of climate change and health.  The topics explored in this edited volume will be presented in three categories:  (1) climate change impacts on health, both direct (through extreme weather) and indirect (through ecosystem change), (2) key vulnerabilities that enhance climate effects on health (sociodemographic risk factors, place-based vulnerabilities including urban impacts, emergent risks of multiple system interactions), and (3) strategies for mitigation and adaptation including assessment strategies, enhancing surveillance for climate-sensitive diseases, communicating on climate, and greening healthcare.    In addition to presenting a comprehensive treatment of the public health and clinical perspective on the topic, the reader will be exposed to core concepts in climate change science, presented as supplemental text boxes, that will serve as a reference on  climate literacy. 1.      Introduction:  The state of climate science II. Impacts:  The Epidemiologic Evidence: direct effects, indirect effects, and threats on human welfare and security 2.      Thermal extremes 3.      Weather extremes/ hurricanes 4.      Ozone, Oppressive Air Masses and degraded Air quality 5.      Heavy precipitation and water borne disease 6.      Pollen and aeroallergens 7.      Vector borne disease 8.      Harmful Algal Blooms and marine seafood illness 9.      Emerging infectious diseases 10.  Mental health consequences:  anticipatory and post-disaster 11.  Food-security, ocean acidification III.  Vulnerability:  Methodological and Conceptual Approaches 12.  Climate and Health Vulnerability Assessments:  A practical approach 13.  Using climate models to project the future burden of climate-sensitive diseases.   14.  Vulnerability Hot-Spots:  (urban heat islands, mountainous regions, flood-plains, biodiversity hot spots) 15.  GIS and spatial analytical approaches 16.  Health Impact Assessment and Economic Valuation Strategies 17.  Climate Justice:  The Global South and vulnerability. IV.  Strategies for Adaptation and Mitigation 18.  Enhancing surveillance for climate-sensitive diseases 19.  Climate Risk Communication: Understanding Risk and Climate Science 20.  Climate Change Communication: What clinicians need to know 21.  Climate Mitigation Strategies:  A focus on the health co-benefits of mitigation climate change Each chapter will have two sidebars: one on climate literacy for health and one on clinical competencies/responses to climate change. Climate literacy topics will include Anthropogenic Emissions and the Greenhouse Effect Climate Variability and Climate Change:  Attribution and Detection The Cryosphere:  Sential for a changing climate Global Circulation Models and The Carbon Cycle and Ocean Acidification Geoengineering and Mitigation Strategies. Clinical Competency/responses will include Greening of Health Care Climate Change and Humanitarian Response-- the Disasters of the 21st Century Climate Change and Human Rights Aeroallergens & air quality Shifting vector habitats-- the curious case of ixodes scapularis Clinician advocacy-- the power of the white coat What clean water means to health Emergent risks (ex decreased protein in cereal grains, etc)
