How climate connects with public health Maureen Cervinsky, Bremerton Increasing numbers of extreme weather events demonstrate that climate change is here and affecting the health and well-being of Americans. The failure of the power grid in Texas during the recent cold spell shows the importance of having a plan and being prepared. While the impact from rising global temperatures will be most acutely felt in the poorer, hotter parts of the world, wealthy countries will also pay an exacting price. Seattle, which is not ready for severe heat, will sustain far greater damage from scorching temperatures than a city like Houston. Poor people and those with preexisting conditions will be more likely to die from direct causes like heatstroke, but also from indirect causes like heart attacks brought on by days of extreme temperatures. We can prevent needless death and suffering.
