Establishing intensifying chronic exposure to extreme heat as a slow onset event with implications for health, wellbeing, productivity, society and economy
The Warsaw International Mechanism for Loss and Damage has identified increasing temperatures as a key slow onset event. However, it is the resulting increases in short-term heat events — heatwaves — that have so far been the primary focus of risk assessment and policy, while gradual and sustained increases in temperature have received less attention. This is a global issue but particularly important in tropical and subtropical regions already ch…
The 2019 report of The Lancet Countdown on health and climate change: Ensuring that the health of a child born today is not defined by a changing climate
The Lancet Countdown is an international, multidisciplinary collaboration, dedicated to monitoring the evolving health profile of climate change, and providing an independent assessment of the delivery of commitments made by governments worldwide under the Paris Agreement.

Heat, Human Performance, and Occupational Health: A Key Issue for the Assessment of Global Climate Change Impacts
Ambient heat exposure is a well-known health hazard, which reduces human performance and work capacity at heat levels already common in tropical and subtropical areas. Various health problems have been reported. Increasing heat exposure during the hottest seasons of each year is a key feature of global climate change. Heat exhaustion and reduced human performance are often overlooked in climate change health impact analysis. Later this century, m…
Regional maps of occupational heat exposure: Past, present, and potential future
BACKGROUND: An important feature of climate change is increasing human heat exposure in workplaces without cooling systems in tropical and subtropical countries. Detailed gridded heat exposure maps will provide essential information for public health authorities. OBJECTIVES: To develop and test methods for calculating occupational heat exposures and present results in easily interpreted maps. DESIGN: Published formulas for a common occupational h…
The ‘Hothaps’ programme for assessing climate change impacts on occupational health and productivity: An invitation to carry out field studies
The 'high occupational temperature health and productivity suppression' programme (Hothaps) is a multi-centre health research and prevention programme aimed at quantifying the extent to which working people are affected by, or adapt to, heat exposure while working, and how global heating during climate change may increase such effects. The programme will produce essential new evidence for local, national and global assessment of negative impacts …
Workplace heat stress, health and productivity – an increasing challenge for low and middle-income countries during climate change
BACKGROUND: Global climate change is already increasing the average temperature and direct heat exposure in many places around the world. OBJECTIVES: To assess the potential impact on occupational health and work capacity for people exposed at work to increasing heat due to climate change. DESIGN: A brief review of basic thermal physiology mechanisms, occupational heat exposure guidelines and heat exposure changes in selected cities. RESULTS: In …
