\"honey<\/a>Climate change is regarded as a threat to all sorts of things, civilisation itself, wine, beer, skiing….\u00a0 Now there is said to be a link between climate change and mental health.\u00a0 So far there has been too little action.\u00a0 You would have thought the threats to wine and beer would be enough?\u00a0 Now a group at Berkeley California has found a correlation between rising temperature and suicide.\u00a0 For a 1\u00baC rise in temperature suicides in Mexico and the US went up 2.1 and 0.7%.\u00a0 It has to be said that if you search for climate change and mental health all sorts of links to all sorts of mental conditions come up not just suicide.<\/p>\n

Of course correlation is not causation<\/a>.\u00a0 There is some evidence to support their assertion from social media with higher temperatures in these places people are more unhappy.\u00a0 So what’s going on?\u00a0 I’m happy when its warmer.\u00a0 I’m sitting in the garden in the sun and its stewing.\u00a0 However the difference is in the UK heat and a decent summer is an added bonus.\u00a0 Living somewhere where its already hot to start with and it gets even hotter I can see could drive people to desperation.\u00a0 Of course its probably not just the heat but that is the final tipping point.\u00a0 It seems likely that increasingly hot summers could lead to 10,000’s of thousands of deaths worldwide and are another reason to do something about climate change.<\/p>\n
