Health Effects of Climate Change in the UK 2012 Current Evidence, Recommendations and Research Gaps Health Effects of Climate Change in the UK 2012 Current evidence, recommendations and research gaps Sotiris Vardoulakis and Clare Heaviside (Editors) Cover artwork provided by Will Stahl-Timmins European Centre for Environment and Human Health, University of Exeter Medical School Health Effects of Climate Change in the UK 2012 Edited by Sotiris Vardoulakis and Clare Heaviside Preface I There is substantial evidence that climate change is affecting many aspects of the world around us. Weather patterns are shifting, extreme weather is becoming more commonplace and temperatures in most parts of the world are rising. For at least ten years now, the UK has been giving serious consideration to the risks climate change could pose to our health. In 2002 the Department of Health published The Health Effects of Climate Change in the UK, one of the first reports of its kind internationally, informed by the UKCIP98 climate projections. In 2008, DH and the Health Protection Agency jointly published an updated version of that study, based on the revised UKCIP02 climate projections. These reports have been highly regarded and helped to shape policies to prepare for the challenges ahead. I am glad that the HPA agreed to produce this timely update as the science around climate change is constantly evolving. In 2009 the latest long-range climate projections for the UK (UKCP09 from the UK Climate Impacts Programme) were published, updating those produced in 2002, in order to inform the UK’s first Climate Change Risk Assessment (CCRA), required by the Climate Change Act (2008), covering 11 sectors across society. This HPA report complements the Health Sector report of the CCRA by providing scientific evidence of the wider risks to public health from climate change in the UK. Next year the public health landscape changes, with the HPA moving to Public Health England and more involvement of local authorities in public health decision making. This report will help provide valuable evidence towards local protection of the public’s health, with, for example, many actions to combat heatwaves already covered in our National Heatwave Plan. As well as preparing for the health impacts of climate change, we are also able to help prevent the worst of these impacts as urgent action to reduce individual and corporate carbon footprints continues. We can then also reap the health benefits of a low-carbon society, with cleaner air and more active, healthier lifestyles to help combat obesity, cancer and heart disease. A win-win we can all engage in. Professor Dame Sally Davies Chief Medical Officer Department of Health 1 Preface II Human beings are remarkably adaptable. Over the millennia they have spread across the globe to live in virtually every climate our planet has to offer. But during the coming years humans will have to adapt further still as our climate changes. Floods across the UK in 2007 and the heatwave of 2003 are a stark illustration of the devastating effects that extreme weather events can have. The heatwave during the summer of 2003 resulted in over 2,000 excess deaths across England and Wales, and the 2007 floods caused by heavy rains led to 13 deaths and more than £3 billion pounds worth of damage to the UK infrastructure. Both of these events are covered in this report. Though it cannot be said with certainty that these events were a direct consequence of climate change; it is clear that events of this kind are becoming more frequent, and they provide a glimpse of what could become even more severe events in the future. For those in health protection, planning for those climate-related changes and, where possible, adapting to their likely effects, is critical. This is why this new report is so vital – it is an extensive update to reviews published in 2002 and 2008; and it draws on climate projections for the UK published in 2009 (UKCP09), the UK’s first Climate Change Risk Assessment, published in January 2012, and recent evidence published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Chance (IPCC) and other organisations. It gives those in the health and social care sectors the information they need to make informed decisions about the pressures of climate change on public health. It also reminds policy makers of the need to consider how steps to mitigate the effects of climate change may lead to unintended consequences that need other direct action. And, it identifies areas where more research is needed to provide qualitative and quantitative evidence of the direct and indirect effects of climate change, looking in particular at vulnerable populations and regions. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have lent their considerable expertise to this report. Glancing at the list of chapter titles illustrates the broad range of experts who have contributed to the report – and I am extremely grateful for the work they have done. In addition, I would like to give special thanks to Sotiris Vardoulakis and Clare Heaviside, the editors of the report, without whose tireless work it would not have been completed. For many years debate has focused on whether our climate is changing. Today the question is no longer whether the climate is changing, but what can be done. My hope is that this report will become the major reference for helping to mitigate and adapt to the impacts climate change will have on UK public health. Dr David L.

In 2008, a further update was published by the Department of Health and the Health Protection Agency, based on new climate change projections for the UK. The present report has been prepared on

  • Alwoodley Parish – Application For
    ALWOODLEY PARISH COUNCIL APPLICATION FOR DESIGNATION OF A NEIGHBOURHOOD AREA Prepared on behalf of Alwoodley Parish Council 5 November 2013 Introduction Alwoodley, for the purposes of this application, is a civil parish created in 2008 within the City of Leeds. Some of the adjacent areas are commonly referred to as being in Alwoodley but do not form part of the civil parish. It lies some 5 miles north of the city centre on the northern edge of the West Yorkshire conurbation. The parish is on a ridge between the valleys of the River Aire and River Wharfe. It is bounded by the suburbs of Adel and Bramhope to the west, Harrogate Road to the east, Moor Allerton to the south and Harewood parish to the north. The northern part of the parish is mixed farmland in the Green Belt in which Eccup Reservoir is situated. To the north of the parish is the Harewood Estate. Moortown and Sandmoor golf courses lie within the parish together with part of Headingley golf course. There are several sports fields. The site of a Roman road crosses the parish from West to East, from Ilkley to Tadcaster, close to Alwoodley Lane. Alwoodley Old Hall stood adjacent to the site of Eccup Reservoir in the present grounds of Sandmoor Golf Club. Built in the 17th century it was demolished in 1969. Early on the 20th century Alwoodley became a leisure destination for Leeds inhabitants; before that it was an isolated agricultural community. Much of the suburban area was developed between 1920 and 1980 . Leeds Country Way and two long distance footpaths, the Dales Way and the Ebor Way, cross or lie on the edge of the parish.

Land Smith 2021 MELS ii Abstract Sina Queyras, in the essay “Lyric Conceptualism: A Manifesto in Progress,” describes the Lyric Conceptualist as a poet capable of recognizing the effects of disparate movements and employing a variety of lyric, conceptual, and language poetry techniques to continue to innovate in poetry without dismissing the work of other schools of poetic thought. Queyras sees the lyric conceptualist as an artistic curator who collects, modifies, selects, synthesizes, and adapts, to create verse that is both conceptual and accessible, using relevant materials and techniques from the past and present. This dissertation responds to Queyras’s idea with a collection of original poems in the lyric conceptualist mode, supported by a critical exegesis of that work.
