New paper from the EXHAUSTION project: Unless _strong_ mitigation and adaptation measures are implemented, most European cities will see an increase in temperature-related deaths. Thanks to @pmasselot.bsky.social @gasparrini.bsky.social and the EXHAUSTION team! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Estimating future heat-related and cold-related mortality under climate change, demographic and adaptation scenarios in 854 European cities - Nature Medicine
Modeled analyses of 854 European cities show that net temperature-related mortality will increase because of an increase in heat-related mortality exceeding future reductions in cold-related mortality...

Are there independent effects on mortality from long-term heat exposure? This is one of the questions addressed in new paper from EXHAUSTION. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Independent effects of long and short-term exposures to non-optimal increased temperature on mortality
Although the short-term heat effects are well-established, longer-term effects, beyond those, have recently received attention, in the context of clim…

€970M for Health Research in 2025, €0 for Climate Change and Health— Let’s Close This Critical Gap – SPHERA
On the basis of information about the upcoming Horizon Europe 2025 call for proposals, the European Commission has proposed a budget of around €970 million for health research—yet, alarmingly, no funds are allocated to research on the effects of climate change on health. This needs to change.
