Título : Climate Sensitive Adaptation in Health : Imperatives for India in a Developing Economy Context Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Purnamita Dasgupta ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: New Delhi : Springer India Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Número de páginas: XXII, 194 p. 74 illus Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-81-322-2824-0 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Climate change Public health Health economics Medical Development Environmental Economics Change/Climate Change Impacts Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: This book focuses on the risks that climate change poses for the health sector. It discusses the current vulnerabilities to climate-sensitive diseases, the resultant mortality and morbidity in human populations, the projected risks in connection with increasing global warming, and the options for tackling the adverse impacts of climate change. Adapting to climate change so as to effectively address the risks for and adverse impacts on the health sector requires an in-depth understanding of current deficits in health sector preparedness for climate-sensitive illnesses, as well as future plans and programs for increasing adaptive capacity and building resilience. The book situates climate and health adaptation concerns in the broader context of developing countries, providing insights that can be useful for other countries as well, helping them further their health adaptation efforts. In India, poverty and inadequate access to basic water, health and sanitation services combine with climate-related events to adversely impact health outcomes. Three case studies on the occurrence of heat stress, flooding, and extreme cyclonic events in India are presented along with a critical assessment of the level of preparedness and capacity of healthcare facilities to respond to the threats posed by climate change. The book presents the key challenges faced in reducing the risks posed to the health sector by climatic factors, and highlights the most important opportunities for promoting resilience and adaptation to achieve sustainable development. Dr. Dasgupta's excellent book reviews the health risks of climate change, outlines an operational framework for health adaptation, and describes the socioeconomic context for adaptation in India. - Kristie L. Ebi Professor, Departments of Global Health, and Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences, University of Washington, USA This pioneering work contributes to an the understanding of the preparedness in India to manage health risks from such (climate) change on the basis of detailed data analysis, both from large national surveys and contextualized field based surveys. - Kanchan Chopra Former Director and Professor, Institute of Economic Growth, New Delhi, India Nota de contenido: Introduction: Climate Risks in the Health Sector -- Climate Change Adaptation: The International Experience in Health -- Developing Economy Context for Adaptation Decision-Making -- Understanding Associations: Health, Socio-economic Wellbeing & Climate -- Analysing the Interface in Indian Plans and Policies -- Criticality of the Field: Three Case Studies -- Conclusion: Integrating Sustainable Development and Health Adaptation.

Organización de empresas Resumen: There has been some degree of reluctance in the past to consider disaster risk management within the mainstream of adaptation to climate variability and climate change. However, there is now wide recognition of the need to incorporate disaster risk management concerns in dealing with such phenomena. There is also a growing awareness of the neccessity for a multi-sectoral approach in managing the effects of climate variability and climate change, since this can lead to a significant reduction of risk. This book presents the latest findings from scientific research on climate variation, climate change and their links with disaster risk management. It showcases projects and other initiatives in this field that are being undertaken in both industrialised and developing countries, by universities and scientific institutions, government bodies, national and international agencies, NGOs and other stakeholders. Finally, it discusses current and future challenges, identifying opportunities and highlighting the still unrealised potential for promoting better understanding of the connections between climate variation, climate change and disaster risk management worldwide.

The authors analyze the effects of climate change on the social and environmental determinants of the health and well-being of communities (i.e. poverty, clean air, safe drinking water, food supplies) and on extreme events such as floods and hurricanes. The book covers topics such as the social and political dimensions of the ebola response, inequalities in urban migrant communities, as well as water-related health effects of climate change. The contributors recommend political and social-cultural strategies for mitigate, adapt and prevent the impacts of climate change to human and environmental health. The book will be of interest to scholars and practitioners interested in new methods and tools to reduce risks and to increase health resilience to climate change Nota de contenido: Preface -- Part I: Human Health and Climate Change -- Part II: Climate Change and Infectious Diseases -- Part III: Climate Change and Health: Education, Training and Governance -- Part IV: Climate Change and Health Across Regions En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-24660-4 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=42169 Climate Change and Health : Improving Resilience and Reducing Risks [documento electrónico] / Walter Leal Filho ; SpringerLink (Online service) ; Ulisses M.
