(2) #transportation & #energyproduction make up 90% of #Arizona greenhouse gas emissions
This leads to many patient harms I see in the #emergencyroom from #heatrelatedillness to cancers, asthma and COPD flares, heart attacks and premature labor
These #climatehealth issues grow when we do not act

An assessment of the occupational heat stress recommendations in adults with obesity
Occupational heat stress and hydration recommendations aim to prevent core temperatures from exceeding 38.0°C and dehydration in unacclimated workers. These guidelines do not consider individual di...

Tons of interesting info from WCRI in yesterday's webinar on #Florida. Did you know that newly hired workers with 0-2 months on the job are at greater risk of #HeatRelatedIllness than more experienced -- and acclimatized -- workers?
And there's more!

#Deforestation causes more than 1/3 of the warming experienced by people living in affected regions, in addition to global climate disruption. It has killed >500K people in the tropics over the past 20 years from #heatrelatedillness. It brings humans into #closercontactwithanimals/insects/disease

Last year, we shared that #farmworkers are at high-risk of #heatrelatedillness and those working in Polytunnels - aka hoop houses - may have an even higher risk. We estimate ~41K work in polytunnels along the central coast #wetrackthat #throughtheyears t.co/AdQAkcGJCm

So yeah this happened yesterday.
Hottest earliest day ever in Tucson.
Had 5 #heatrelatedillness on shift yest 3 admitted.
#climatechange is a #healthcareburden.
Healthcare is overwhelmed and exhausted. Anything to #reducefossilfueluse helps

Heat season is here in the global North. I’ve had four #heatrelatedillness patients on two shifts ,all elderly, all on diuretics.
Remember to ask:
Where do you go to avoid the heat? Stay hydrated. Modify activities. Meds make u more vulnerable.
