The Impact of Climate Change and Extreme Weather Conditions

on Cardiovascular Health and Acute Cardiovascular Diseases.

Problems:

Absent studies and consciousness on climate crisis.
Harsh climate creating major threats.
Environmental change worsening air pollution.
Air contaminations are causing cardiovascular diseases.
Underserved community is harmed.

Findings

Particles like (PM2.5) and (NO2) are increasing rates of heart attacks, strokes, and heart failure.

Temperatures anomalies boost cardiovascular risk.
Economically disadvantaged, older adults and people with prior cardiovascular issues are at increased vulnerability.
The financial strain of climate disruption-related cardiovascular disease is notable (Di Vita et. al., 2024).

Impact of climate change on immune responses and barrier defense.

Problems:

Climate change is disrupting the immune system.
Body's initial defense, Epithelial barrier is weakening.
The risk of autoimmune diseases like autoimmune conditions, respiratory illnesses, allergies, and certain cancers is increasing.
Less knowledge about the connection between climate change and immune system.

Findings:

Various types of climate risks like air pollution, allergens, heat stress, microbiota changes and toxic substances affect.
Natural immunity can be overexcited by environmental pressure and disrupt adaptive immunity, leading to a loss of immune tolerance.
More research is needed (Gulcebi et. a., 2021).

Teleological (consequentialist) theory shows complete dependence of the result on the action. The pattern of the work affects the type of the results. This means good action causes positive results and negative work brings out negative results.

This theory relates to my article. My article is about climate crisis and its negative effects on Cardiovascular Health. The actions which causes climate change affects the results caused by it (Shaw et. al., 2020).

Ethics of care is a virtue theory which mainly approach to feminine ethics like care, compassion, selflessness and so on.

In this theory one cares about others. My article about climate change and its effects on heath shows that we need to work on this theory to improve our lives (Shaw et. al., 2020).

Sustainable development goals 13^th goal is about the growth of narrowing and modifying the effects of climate change. SDG 13 aims to move rapidly to conflict climate change and it’s results like flooding, heat, food-water shortage, diseases, and economic loss. SDG 13 will produce electricity from low-carbon sources to decrease emissions and use reusable energy. Each of SDG 13's target includes one or more markers that is used to notice and compute the progression. Some of the signs for calculating the progress are number of deaths, missing people, directly affected people by the disasters based on the inhabitants or total greenhouse emissions generated by year (UNSDG 13).

In this padlet I have written two papers which are The Impact of Climate Change and Extreme Weather Conditions

on Cardiovascular Health and Acute Cardiovascular Diseases and Impact of climate change on immune responses and barrier defense.

I have used two theories which are Teleological (consequentialist) theory and Ethics of care.

I have also talked about Sustainable development goal 13.

Environmental change is causing diseases. It's attacking our bodies and hearts. We should care about our actions today which will affect our future. We also should care about others, especially those who are already battling.
