The Charité University Hospital (Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin) opened a new department that focuses on investigating the potential consequences of climate change on health. The renowned Berlin-based hospital said Monday that Dr. Sabine Gabrysch, professor of Epidemiology, will head the new department.

According to the hospital, the new department comes as part of cooperation with the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, and that Prof. Gabrysch will head the climate flexibility unit, aiming at focusing her research on the developing and developed countries. The German scientist said she plans to concentrate her studies on nutrition, the German News Agency reported.
Gabrysch, who formerly worked at the Heidelberg University Hospital, said this research field has so far studied heat waves and tropical germ proliferation, yet, the food safety is also at risk. For instance, if the recurrent waves of soil drought led to malnutrition among pregnant women, their children may suffer from incurable health problems later.
“At the same time, I plan to examine the impact of the mutual benefits strategy and its solutions, and extend it. Those solutions are beneficial for humans and the environment alike,” noted Gabrysch.
According to the professor, these solutions start with agriculture methods and include the establishment of cities that are friendly for pedestrians and bikers.

‘Millions of people share the phenomenon of climate denial…we are the victims of a well-funded and sophisticated misinformation campaign that attempts to keep us in the dark about climate change.’
The authors write at Psychology Today: ‘We can affirm without doubt that anthropogenic climate change is a real phenomenon that is already apparent and will, if not mitigated, cause terrible suffering and destruction before this century is over.’
‘What the climate scientists are telling us is that if we don’t stop burning fossil fuels the human race faces extinction. The fact is that many people born this year will not survive global warming if it continues at the current pace and exceeds 3.50C by 2050.’
‘Despite the fact that psychologists know a lot about denial, they have never had to face denial on this scale before. Millions of people share the phenomenon of climate denial. This is clearly not something that is amenable to individual or even group psychotherapy.’
