“…63,64 Public health adaptation reflects short-or long-term strategies aimed at reducing the negative health impacts and working across sectors for resilience to climate change. 65 Critical components of local health sector adaptation include cross-sectoral collaboration and educating policy makers about the connection between climate change and health. 66 Though it is important to invest in U.S. climate change adaptation across all sectors, committing funds specifically to health and health-related adaptation is critical to save lives.…”

“…Combined with the almost $4 trillion annual investment that would be needed regardless during that time—in smart electric energy grids and greater energy generation efficiency, the $1 trillion renewables investment would help stimulate offsetting economic growth. And in a global economy of $75 trillion, the modest investment would also stimulate substantial economic activity (have a beneficial economic multiplier effect; see below for discussion of the economics of climate), and help promote greater public health (Buonocore, ; Hajat, Vardoulakis, Heaviside, & Eggen, ; Marinucci, Luber, Uejio, Saha, & Hess, ; Woodward et al, ).…”

“…assessing climate change-related risks and responding appropriately so that they can be managed as they arise). 10,11 The UKCIP (formerly known as the UK Climate Impacts Program) at the University of Oxford offers online risk-based adaptation resources to assist organisations with local climate change adaptation planning. 10 Steps include assessment of current and future climate vulnerabilities and development and evaluation of agency-appropriate adaptation measures.…”

“…10 The US Centres for Disease Control have developed a similar framework for Building Resilience against Climate Effects (BRACE) by public health agencies. 11 Adapting to climate change by hospital and community health services would entail identifying effects on a population's health and its use of health services, as well as preparing for the effects of climate change on health service resources, workforce and infrastructure. In this paper we illustrate how the existing models and available data can be used by local health services to predict the local risks and prepare for the effects.…”
