關於此網上節目

香港賽馬會災難防護應變教研中心與香港急症科醫學院合作,2015年10月30日至11月1日在香港醫學專科學院,舉行主題為「從社區走進急症室」的災難防護應變周年會議,來自政府、醫療界別、志願團體及進行災難防護應變研究學者等持分者眾首,討論相關議題。

我們希望通過此網上節目,與公眾分享會議精華片段。

節目內容
本網上節目為人類導致的氣候變化提供簡單科學背景,根據聯合國政府間氣候變化專門委員會最新評核報告的發現,審視過去數十年的氣候轉變,以及這些轉變在21世紀末的預期發展,並重點分析可影響人類健康的氣候因素,包括氣溫、濕度、降雨量、海水水位、大氣層內污染物濃度、積雪及極端天氣事件。節目亦探討氣候變化對公共衞生的直接影響,包括熱負荷、傳染病散播、空氣及水源污染,以及探討其間接影響,包括食水短缺及其他由氣候變化引伸的問題,影響農作物收成及糧食供應,導致營養不良,部分人口需因而遷徙。這些複雜及多元問題,需要科學、社會科學及公共衛生等學術領域的研究人員進行跨領域研究。
