The Longreach-based grazier and chair of Outback Futures, a not-for-profit mental health support organisation, said keeping strong community connections was vital during tough times, such as drought."We've just had eight to 10 years of drought. How much more challenging can you get?"
He said the geographical and social isolation of living in the outback was sometimes crippling for landowners."And it's even tougher when you feel like you're doing it on your own."The potential impacts of climate change on the health sector are much wider than mental health. "The increased frequency and intensity of climate extremes have resulted in disrupted health and social services and internal population displacement," the report said.
Indigenous communities have also been disproportionately affected by the negative health consequences of climate change, even though "the contribution of these communities to greenhouse gas emissions has been minimal"."Climate change represents the greatest public health issue of the century and the greatest challenge for health systems," Dr Sleeman said.
"We have this increased illness in the community because of the rising temperatures, and we have an increased load on the health system, really much like COVID."
🤣🙈🙈🤣
Easy fixed - stop paying attention to the hysterical lies of the ABC and climate cult nutters.
Scare the kids about the end of the world won't help much either. The world has been ending for thousands of years.
Oh pleeease 🙄
See what the media has done?!. Reduced people to this from their narrative of fear!. Yes ABC you are one of the main offenders for this with your constant posting about it!.
great story interpersonal support, care and understanding is how we all progress more of this,
Just switch off the ABC. Solved
Climate change nerves, because of the constant climate cult misinformation propagated by their ABC.
Whack jobs.
Climate change anxiety is indeed a mental illness
The the racism word like the climate change words have been made meaningless by ABC
They're only as traumatic as you allow the climate alarmists to make them. Many things are going on and climate change is nowhere near the top of the list.
