EFFECTS OF WARMING COLD IN HUMAN HEALTH

[maria angelica sassone]

The last ten years have been the hottest for our planet since records were kept, scientists have announced that in the future will be worse. The man has a direct impact on the heating process, popularly known as "greenhouse effect", especially developed countries.

Solar energy passes through the atmosphere, reaching the earth and in part is returned in the form of infrared energy. This is when a greenhouse gas trap and retain heat from infrared radiation, the result is global warming. Then the ice caps melt and reflect less heat, which causes the earth to warm up even more, with the consequent increased evaporation of ocean water, which will be heavy rains, floods, hurricanes, drought and frost ... among other disasters. This not only affects the land, but also of course the all-powerful human beings. According to a report by the World Health Organization, five million illnesses and about 150 000 deaths annually are due to the transformation that is occurring in the climate. Heart disease and respiratory infections and malnutrition are some examples of what the weather can affect human health. WHO estimates that by 2030 climate change will increase the risk of various health parameters more than doubled. The major increases will occur in the flood-related diseases, as well as with malaria or diarrhea (cholera). Studies that have evaluated this relationship have focused primarily on the phenomenon of El Niño - a large-scale anomalous warming of Pacific waters that occurs every few years - and has been found that this situation is associated with the incidence of South American malaria, dengue in Thailand, Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in the southwestern United States, infant diarrhea and cholera in Peru in Bangladesh. Also cause a large increase in cases of kidney stones in the next 42 years, so researchers at the University of Texas, United States, especially for organic dehydration. In turn, a study by the University of Sydney says: "Global warming is becoming more evident now, it is highly likely an increasing number of children with common diseases in hospital emergency rooms," says director Dr. Lawrence Lam research. Dr. Lam said that children are more vulnerable to climate change by an adult because your body can regulate unless the temperature changes. The heat regulating mechanism of the brain is less developed. According to the medical journal The Lancet and scientists from the University of London, referring to the heat as "the silent murderer," the same that killed 70,000 people in Europe in the summer of 2003, which kills tens unregistered of thousands of people every year in third world countries. The comparison between rich and poor is devastating, the report published in The Lancet: "the lost years of healthy life as a result of global environmental change will be 500 times greater in Africa than in European nations, although African nations contribute little to global warming. " Will have a devastating effect on the health of the poorest nations, with diminished harvests and consequently more expensive foods, and poor sanitary conditions that will result in gastroenteritis and malnutrition. "Between one third and two thirds of the species there today, on the planet are at risk of extinction in the next 30 years" if current trends continue, said Montgomery and put an emphasis on the rate of warming Land is the fastest that has been reported in the last 10,000 years.

Ahm, I don't really trust in what WHO says ... this article is fear inspiring and WHO is but an instrument of pharma industry. I've lost all trust in this organisation - all they want is that we buy in on fear and buy drugs at pharmacies ... at least this is my very personal opinion. What do you think?
