Podcast appearances and mentions of Kristie Ebi

Earth has pushed past seven out of eight scientifically established safety limits and into “the danger zone,” not just for an overheating planet that's losing its natural areas, but for the well-being of people living on it, according to a new study. The study looks not just at guardrails for the planetary ecosystem but for the first time, it includes measures of “justice,” which is mostly about preventing harm to countries, ethnicities and genders. The study by the international scientist group Earth Commission published in the journal Nature looks at climate, air pollution, phosphorus and nitrogen contamination of water from fertilizer overuse, groundwater supplies, fresh surface water, the unbuilt natural environment and the overall natural and human-built environment. Only air pollution wasn't quite at the danger point globally. Air pollution is dangerous at local and regional levels, while climate was beyond the harmful levels for humans in groups but not quite past the safety guideline for the planet as a system, the study from the Swedish group said. The study found “hotspots” of problem areas throughout Eastern Europe, South Asia, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, parts of Africa, and much of Brazil, Mexico, China and some of the U.S. West — much of it from climate change. About two-thirds of Earth don't meet the criteria for freshwater safety, scientists said as an example. “We are in a danger zone for most of the Earth system boundaries,” said study co-author Kristie Ebi, a professor of climate and public health at the University of Washington. If planet Earth just got an annual checkup, similar to a person's physical, “our doctor would say that the Earth is really quite sick right now, and it is sick in terms of many different areas or systems. And this sickness is also affecting the people living on Earth,” Earth Commission co-chair Joyeeta Gupta, a professor of environment at the University of Amsterdam, said at a press conference. It's not a terminal diagnosis. The planet can recover if it changes, including its use of coal, oil and natural gas and the way it treats the land and water, the scientists said.

We've all probably heard about how climate change is affecting the ice sheets and polar bears, but what about human health? More severe and numerous floods, droughts, and heat waves impact a wide range of health outcomes, and shifting biomes may spread diseases to new places. How do scientists understand which portions of health effects are caused by climate change, and how can health organizations be prepared? To find out, we talked with Kristie Ebi, who founded the Center for Health and the Global Environment (CHanGE) at the University of Washington. In addition to the effects of climate change, Kris told us about how many of the mitigations for climate change—e.g. switching from coal to renewable power sources, creating more environmentally-friendly transportation systems, and reducing meat in our diets—will coincidentally improve public health. She also introduced us to the rap stylings of Baba Brinkman, whose song “Climate Hero” summarizes several of the points Kris made in our episode. This episode was produced by Katrina Jackson and mixed by Collin Warren. Artwork by Jace Steiner. Find a companion to this episode from our friends over at Carry the Two. “Climate Hero” and other science raps by Baba Brinkman will be released via Spotify and other streaming services soon on a forthcoming science rap album, which can be previewed here: https://music.bababrinkman.com/album/rapsode.

Climate change has been happening for some time and, while we may not actively notice it, has been harming the health of millions across the globe for some time now. Dr. Kristie Ebi is a professor of Global Health and Environmental & Occupational Health Sciences at the University of Washington and a globally renowned expert in the effect of heat on our health.  In this episode we dive into how climate change impacts our health, why the heat is so dangerous, who and where the majority of the effects take effect. We also talk about how to prepare from the individual level all the way to the global level. This episode is like none other that we have on the podcast! Episode Outline Can you briefly describe what you do and areas you are actively researching? What does prevention mean to you? Can you explain what kind of climate change we are seeing and what we expect to see within the next 50 years? Why is excess heat so dangerous to our health? Who is going to suffer the effects of climate change the most and what kinds of health issues/outcomes will they be facing? What can we do to prepare and prevent excess morbidity and mortality related to climate change on a personal level? How do communities and countries prepare for and prevent the excess morbidity and mortality related to climate change? What does the forecast look like for health outcomes? How bad is it going to get? There are those who are very apocalyptic about our future and those who have unrivaled optimism. What's your take?

http://traffic.libsyn.com/radiohealthjournal/RHJ_19-43A.mp3 Rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are making crops grow bigger & faster. However, researchers have found that these crops contain significantly lower levels of protein, iron, zinc, and other important nutrients, potentially endangering nutrition for hundreds of millions of people. Experts explain the effect will get worse as CO2 levels continue to rise, and what might be done to combat the problem.

L'augmentation du niveau de carbone dans l'atmosphère peut accélérer la croissance des plantes, mais elle a un autre effet caché : elle prive les plantes des nutriments et des vitamines dont nous avons besoin pour vivre. Dans une intervention sur la sécurité alimentaire mondiale, l'épidémiologiste Kristie Ebi présente les conséquences sanitaires potentiellement énormes de cette crise nutritionnelle en devenir. Elle décrit aussi les mesures que nous pouvons prendre pour garantir à tous l'accès à une alimentation saine et sans danger.

Der steigende Kohlenstoffgehalt in unserer Atmosphäre kann Pflanzen schneller wachsen lassen, aber es gibt auch versteckte Konsequenzen: es raubt den Pflanzen ihre Nährstoffe und Vitamine, die wir zum überleben brauchen. In einer Reden über globale Nahrungssicherheit erläutert die Epidemiologin Kristie Ebi die potentiell massiven Gesundheitsrisiken dieser wachsenden Ernährungskrise -- und untersucht, welche Maßnahmen wir ergreifen können, um sicher zu stellen, dass alle Menschen Zugang zu sicheren, gesunden Lebensmitteln haben.

Listen Now The below November 7th podcast post provides a link to an essay that, in part, provides an overview of the United Nation's International Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC's) recent report titled, "Global Warming of 1.5°C."  As noted in the essay, what is particularly noteworthy about the IPCC's report is its conclusion that keeping or holding temperature increases to below 2°C, the goal of the Paris climate accord, would not avoid the more serious effects of global warming.  For example, at 1.5°C of warming a significant percent of vertebrates, insects and plants would lose half of their climatically-determined geographic range and 70 to 90 percent of coral reefs would be lost.   During this 28 minute conversation Professor Kirstie Ebi begins by briefly explaining the IPCC's work, she then discusses several of the findings in chapter 3, that she co-authored and is titled, "Impacts of 1.5°C Global Warming on Natural and Human Systems.," Professor Ebi makes note of the international climate change research communities' upcoming meeting in Poland, next issue of the US's Climate Science Special Report, anticipated in December, and comments on the health care industry's responsibility and opportunity to contribute to solving the climate crisis. Professor Kristie L. Ebi, is the Director of the Center for Health and Global Environment (CHanGE) and the Rohm and Haas Endowed Professor in Public Health Sciences at the University of Washington.  She is the author of multiple national and international climate change assessments, including the IPCC's recently published Report on Global Warming of 1.5C.  Professor Ebi co-chairs the International Committee on New Integrated Climate change assessment Scenarios (ICONICS) that created five scenarios of socioeconomic development over this century.  Professor Ebi's scientific training includes a MS in toxicology and a Ph.D. and a Masters of Public Health in epidemiology and two years of post-graduate research at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine  She has edited four books on aspects of climate change and over 200 publications.The IPCC report is at: http://www.ipcc.ch/report/sr15/ Though not noted during this discussion, it's worth noting here the much discussed essay by Will Steffen and colleagues published this past August in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) regarding "hothouse earth."  The essay, "Trajectories of the Earth System in the Anthropocene," is at: http://www.pnas.org/content/115/33/8252 This is a public episode.

The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change  (IPCC) 2018 predicts far more dire and rapidly escalating consequences of Climate Change than any IPCC analysis thus far, and calls for a historically unprecedented  transformation of the world economy to avert the worst of the damage. Dr. Kristie Ebi Dr. Natalie M. Mahowald Two of the IPCC's authors, Dr. Nathalie Mehowald of Cornell and Dr. Kristie Ebi of University of Washington, share their thoughts on the report, the problem, and possible solutions.

For this episode of Deeply Talks, Andrew Green the managing editor of Malnutrition Deeply, spoke to researchers Irakli Loladze, associate professor at the Bryan College of Health Sciences, and Dr. Kristie Ebi, director of Center for Health and the Global Environment (CHanGE) at the University of Washington to explore what impact climate change will have on food and nutrition.

Deeply Talks from Malnutrition Deeply: Climate change will have significant, long-lasting effects on food and nutrition. A major study published recently in Science Advances showed one such example. The research revealed how rice grown in higher levels of carbon dioxide has lower amounts of key nutrients. This will have a significant impact, particularly on communities that depend on rice as a vital source of nutrients. For this episode of Deeply Talks we spoke to two researchers Irakli Loladze and Dr. Kristie Ebi to explore what this could mean for consumers, policymakers and the private sector, and to think about the broader implications for our diets.

New research suggests that rice will be depleted in important B vitamins and minerals by rising CO2 levels in the atmosphere. Adam Rutherford to talks to Kristie Ebi of the University of Washington, one of the scientists behind the finding, and consults Marco Springmann of the Future of Food project at the University of Oxford. Is the future of farming subterranean? Marnie Chesterton visits a farm called Growing Underground for some answers. Specialising in salad and herbs, it is located beneath Clapham Common in South London in an old Second World War air-raid shelter. Has an interstellar asteroid been lurking in our solar system for more than four billions years? It's a possibility according to the astronomers who've watched and plotted its strange orbit. It travels around the Sun in the opposite direction to most of the planets, asteroids and comets. Asteroid specialist Alan Fitzsimmons of Queens University Belfast talks to Adam about this astronomical oddity and assesses the evidence for it being a traveller from the stars, captured by our solar system during its early childhood. Stephanie Wright of Kings College London explains about what we do and don't know about the abundance and health risks of microplastic particles in the air we breathe. Producer: Andrew Luck-Baker.

Kristie Ebi, Executive Director for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), discusses the complexity of environmental and governmental difficulties in creating a multinational climate adaptation agreement. (January 14, 2010)

How do you visualize something you've never seen? That's the question facing policy makers who are charged with preparing for the potential public health effects of a warming climate. In this podcast, Kristie Ebi looks at various scenarios used to power models that predict effects of climate change. Ebi is the author of "Climate Change, Tropospheric Ozone and Particulate Matter, and Health Impacts" and an independent consultant who has served on numerous scientific panels including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
