GS - question discussion by Binh Gia Huy Bui https://padlet.com/b1112016733/3so9ls9it6g8p6f6 Made with panache en-us 2022-06-28 11:46:39 UTC 2025-11-02 05:12:57 UTC hello@padlet.com On industries (Group 1,5) b1112016733 https://padlet.com/b1112016733/3so9ls9it6g8p6f6/wish/2232647439 G5:
- Higher Prices for Goods and Services
Even companies that aren't in the energy industry can be indirectly affected by energy regulation and the costs they create.

--> Broad changes in prices for utilities and transportation must be passed on by suppliers. And the companies in the middle must pass them on to their customers.
 
G1:
- Frequency and intensity of extreme weather, both in the U.S. and in other countries, can damage factories, supply chain operations and other infrastructure, and disrupt transport. 
- Drought will make water more expensive, which will likely affect the cost of raw materials and production]]> 2022-06-28 17:24:44 UTC https://padlet.com/b1112016733/3so9ls9it6g8p6f6/wish/2232647439 On agriculture (Group 2,6) b1112016733 https://padlet.com/b1112016733/3so9ls9it6g8p6f6/wish/2232647519 G6: Agriculture is extremely vulnerable to climate change. Higher temperatures eventually reduce yields of desirable crops while encouraging weed and pest proliferation. Changes in precipitation patterns increase the likelihood of short-run crop failures and long-run production declines.

G2: 
- Climate change poses a significant threat to agriculture. Higher temperatures eventually diminish crop output while encouraging weed and insect growth. Changes in precipitation patterns raise the chance of crop failures in the near term and productivity losses in the long run. 
- Floods: Sea level rise devastates crops and livestock

Because of heat exposure, productivity in the Southeast and Southern Great Plains regions is expected to decline by 3 percent, and some counties of Texas and Florida could lose more than 6 percent of labor hours each year by 2100. According to a 2014 Rhodium Group study, the largest climate change-related economic losses in the U.S. will be from lost labor productivity.

Rainfall affects employment mainly in agriculture (on formal rural employment) in Colombia. The results indicate that episodes of excessive rainfall have a negative impact on formal employment in rural areas for both the agricultural and non-agricultural sector, while episodes of lack of rainfall affect the formal rural labor market in the opposite direction. These findings are explained by substitution effects between water and labor inputs in agricultural production.

G3: Climate change reduces performance during working hours (labour productivity) when workers under severe heat stress slow down and take more breaks to rehydrate and cool down.

Transport station: Extreme weather increases the variability of weather, and roads designed for a particular climate range may fail more quickly. All of these add costs to design and retrofit, as well as decreasing reliability for users]]> 2022-06-28 17:25:10 UTC https://padlet.com/b1112016733/3so9ls9it6g8p6f6/wish/2232647668 Physical - G1+G2 https://padlet.com/b1112016733/3so9ls9it6g8p6f6/wish/2232937690 G1:

- Direct impact 
people can experience psychological responses to direct exposure to the consequences of climate change, such as living through a disaster. --> “distress reactions"
- Indirect impact
  such as watching a disaster unfold from afar or reading about a dire new scientific report.
Children, elderly people and those with pre-existing mental problems  --> PTSD (Rối loạn stress sau sang chấn), depression, and sleep disorders.

Other impacts of climate change, including food scarcity or food quality issues, potential increases in diseases afterwards (such as malaria) and air pollution → ppl become traumatic and worried.

- Climate change impacts our society by disrupting the natural, economic and social systems we depend on. This disruption will affect food supplies, industry supply chains and financial markets
-  These impacts threaten our health by affecting the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and the weather we experience.
G6:
-As the impacts of climate change mount, millions of vulnerable people face disproportionate challenges in terms of extreme events, health effects, food security, livelihood security, water security, and cultural identity.

- Ambient temperature and effect on mental health
Increased exposure to heat is likely to become more common with the rise in the global temperatures. It has been suggested that there is a relation between temperature rise and aggressive behavior. With global warming, it is possible that the rates of aggression may increase over time.
G8 
- Heat waves have been associated with mental and behavioral disorders. A study from Australia suggests that heat waves are associated with increased rates of admissions for mental disorders also, in conjunction with other disorders such as cardiovascular and renal illness
- Individuals who have been through the experience of climate related natural disaster are not only at a higher risk of developing PTSD, but also at a greater risk of developing acute stress reaction and adjustment disorder.]]> 2022-06-29 01:58:28 UTC https://padlet.com/b1112016733/3so9ls9it6g8p6f6/wish/2232939515 Climate change is already having an impact on health in a variety of ways, including the increased frequency of extreme weather events such as heatwaves, storms, and floods, the disruption of food systems, increases in zoonoses and food-, water-, and vector-borne diseases, and mental health issues. https://padlet.com/b1112016733/3so9ls9it6g8p6f6/wish/2233004081 2022-06-29 03:03:55 UTC https://padlet.com/b1112016733/3so9ls9it6g8p6f6/wish/2233004081
