Climate Change and Health Inequities: A Framework for Action From www.annalsofglobalhealth.org – 19 September, 15:32 Climate change has been identified as the greatest health challenge of the 21st century.1-4 Recently released reports by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the U.S. National Climate Assessment summarize the current effects of climate change on health, projections that these effects will surely increase, and the disproportionate impact of climate change on the health of vulnerable populations and disadvantaged communities.3,5 Yet the public health sector, to date, has not been highly engaged in work to prevent or prepare for climate change, despite calls to do so on the part of numerous public health leaders and organizations. Alexa aiuterà i medici a curare i pazienti – NHS From www.repubblica.it – 19 September, 16:25 Nel Regno Unito l’assistente vocale di Amazon risponderà alle domande su sintomi e terapie grazie all’accordo siglato con il National Health System. L’algoritmo studiato per assistere le fasce deboli, come anziani e non vedenti dovrebbe alleggerire la pressione su medici di base e pronto soccorso.L’accordo, che le autorità sanitarie britanniche hanno annunciato un anno fa ma che diventerà ora operativo, prevede che l’algoritmo che guida Alexa usi le informazioni del sito dell’Nhs quando gli utenti fanno domande relative a questioni sulla salute, del tipo ‘Come si può trattare l’emicrania?’ o ‘Quali sono i sintomi della varicella?’, invece di riportare informazioni prese casualmente dalla rete, e l’Nhs sta lavorando per estenderlo anche ad altri ‘smart speaker’ La salute globale – 9° Giornata in memoria di Lorenzo Tomatis – Sabato 21 Settembre 2019 Genova From www.scoop.it – 19 September, 16:52 Cambiamenti climatici e migrazioni – Sabato 5 Ottobre Perugia From www.scoop.it – 19 September, 16:49 Al tempo dei social la comunicazione ambientale non può che essere bidirezionale – ARPAT From www.arpat.toscana.it – 19 September, 16:04 Intervista a Veronica Caciagli, esperta di comunicazione ambientale La comunicazione social è bidirezionale: gli utenti possono fornire dei feedback. Questo in alcuni casi può essere recepito come un ostacolo o almeno un rischio. Nel bene e nel male, i social danno parola a tutti: spetta al comunicatore, anche ambientale, ascoltare il pubblico e reagire di conseguenza. Non è solo un rischio: è anche un’opportunità per conoscere il pubblico (sempre nel bene e nel male…) e poter adeguare il messaggio comunicativo. Coffee, Mate, and Very Hot Beverages.

The authors of the toolkit and the Partnership do not intend to provide a comprehensive and representative assessment on communication activities across the European Union. In addition, this toolkit does not provide any ranking or judging of the various communication activities presented by the cities. It is a mere snapshot of an area which is hardly looked into by researchers, policy-makers including the European Commission, or experts working on air quality, and there are no agreed upon best practices on (successful) communication.
