Happy to have a new paper out in @TheLancetPH that offers a framework for exploring how climate change interacts with housing, and the consequences of this for climate-related health risks: thelancet.com/journals/lanpu…

And this one looks at housing (and health) outcomes of climate-related disasters: thelancet.com/journals/lanpl…

This paper delves which into the intersections between climate change, housing, and health may also be of interest: thelancet.com/journals/lanpu…

New scoping review on social vulnerability and the health effects of climate change published in @TheLancetPlanet out today: thelancet.com/journals/lanpl… Co-authored with @ANGLIhere @rebecca_bentley at @Housing_CRE @unimelbMSPGH

We highlight the need for housing policy to be leveraged to meet the health challenge of climate change and caution against the pitfalls of reactive and selective adaptation that leave vulnerable communities susceptible.

It explores how climate change acts as a multiplier, intensifying health risks for people in poor-quality or insecure housing. And how climate-related housing vulnerability is rooted not only in poorly adapted physical structures but also the social organisation of housing

We know Housing affordability stress (HAS) impacts our mental health, but what role does financial wellbeing play? 🏠💸 This new paper explores how a person's financial wellbeing affects the link between HAS and mental health: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

I started a new blog, mostly going to talk about street photography but not just that. Here is a link to the first post - mathewtoll362490.substack.com/p/drifting-thr…

People’s mental health goes downhill after repeated climate disasters – it’s an issue of social equity theconversation.com/peoples-mental… via @ConversationEDU

@MichaelAntonF @BretWeinstein Poorly worded. I meant the God Delusion does make that argument. So you can start now

@MichaelAntonF @BretWeinstein Exactly - the God Delusion made that exact argument

I don’t call myself an atheist, and won’t until atheists generally accept that religious faith is an evolutionary adaptation. Absent that, atheism is scientifically incoherent.

@MarkDiStef Is this real?

🚨 There isn’t photos or video of Peter Dutton’s trips for his billionaire patrons Gina Rinehart and Justine Hemmes. But Rinehart has erected a fantastic mural at her Roy Hill mine site of her 70th birthday. We’ve been sent it, and it shows Dutton by her side:

🏠Challenges and strategies in quantifying the effects of housing on health🏠 Quantifying housing’s impact on health has many challenges. This new paper offers several strategies for causal research on housing and health. @ANGLIhere @ke_mason @iamyuxi @rebecca_bentley

In this new paper, we use examples from over a decade of research to illustrate some of the key challenges in undertaking causally focused healthy housing research. authors.elsevier.com/a/1kNWE3k7xFxV… @unimelbMSPGH @Housing_CRE

🌏Did you know the WHO #COP29 #climatechange & #health report has a section dedicated to #housing? @ANGLIhere @MGHToll & @rebecca_bentley's research, cited in the report, shows how critical housing is to protecting people from the health impacts of climate change. Links⬇️
