Super excited (and slightly nervous) to be at at my first @ipcc.bsky.social Lead Authors’ meeting. We are starting our journey to synthesise and evaluate the latest scientific evidence for AR7. @profejzrobinson.bsky.social #CMCC #EIEE @granthamlse.bsky.social

At @cop30brazil.bsky.social in Belèm. I am part of the scientific delegation for #BurkinaFaso, following the Global Goal on Adaptation process. #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social

Delighted to welcome @profejzrobinson.bsky.social (@granthamlse.bsky.social @gsos-lse.bsky.social) to #CMCC for the start of her sabbatical in #Venezia! We will be working on #foodsecurity #labour #whatworks @ipcc.bsky.social

"Early warning systems do seem to work. Workers who reported recalling getting a heat alert had a lower probability of reducing their working hours and a lower probability of experiencing heat related health effects." @profejzrobinson.bsky.social @lsepoliticsblog.bsky.social

Our "Recently collected evidence suggests that UK workers do feel that their health is being harmed by heat, & many are reducing their working & and effort to help deal with the heat." Read our (w/ @profejzrobinson.bsky.social) @lsepoliticsblog.bsky.social blog on protecting UK workers from heat.

Delighted to have been selected as a Lead Author for Chapter 5 "Enablers and barriers" in for the @ipcc.bsky.social AR7 WGIII. Looking forward to working with @profejzrobinson.bsky.social @drrachellowe.bsky.social @etheokritoff.bsky.social and many other colleagues from all over the world.

Great to present joint work with @profejzrobinson.bsky.social at the @physoc.bsky.social #GCHS2025. Adaptation including #EWS are partially effective in protecting workers from heat but still insufficient. Clear scope for government interventions: max temperature regulation & better targeted EWS

“If we don’t take heat seriously, how does the economy keep functioning?” @profejzrobinson.bsky.social, GSoS Acting Dean and advocate for worker protection during extreme heat, asked at the Physiological Society 2025 Global Climate and Health Summit. Find out more ⬇️ @shourodasgupta.bsky.social

Global Climate & Health Summit Session: Heat Resilience: Engaging employers & policymakers - the business & regulator case for heat protection 📅 16 July ⏱️ 13:15 CEST We will discuss the importance of making worker protection an economic and regulatory priority Registration shorturl.at/FcTLs

Second keynote! Thanks to Prof @carmenarguedast.bsky.social for inviting me to speak to the Master in Quantitative Economic Analysis students @uam.es Presented joint work on climatechange & foodsecurity w/ @profejzrobinson.bsky.social First time in Madrid! #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social #EIEE

A climate change induced tragedy. A 47-year-old construction worker died in Emilia-Romagna due to high heat. Construction workers are amongst the most vulnerable to heat stress. We need proactive labour protection policies. Protecting workers from heat is protecting human rights. shorturl.at/uL1ks

Very excited to be a part of the #ClimateHealthSummit25! @profejzrobinson.bsky.social & I will discussing designing evidence-based regulations & policies to protect the labour force. #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social @gsos-lse.bsky.social @physoc.bsky.social @wellcometrust.bsky.social

A fantastic #EAERE2025 in Bergen! Great to meet friends and colleagues, & learn about all the cool research! Special shoutout to Garima Jasuja & Lucia Letsch for their amazing work! Grateful to Silvia Bertolin & Veronica Vidotto, and all the organisers. A beautiful city with sumptuous food!

Great discussing worker protection in a warming world with key stakeholders from trade unions, local & regional government, academia, physiologists, private sector, & charitable sector @gsos-lse.bsky.social @granthamlse.bsky.social roundtable! Always great to work with @profejzrobinson.bsky.social.

Our new @granthamlse.bsky.social WP w/ @shourodasgupta.bsky.social, @drchowarth.bsky.social & Y. Zhou. We collected data after high heat period, UK, 2024. Negative impacts on worker health. Some autonomous adaptation, but worker empowerment matters. Early warning systems work. shorturl.at/3wTwD

1/n #Climatechange is already affecting occupational health & safety. More than 2.4 billion workers are exposed to excessive heat at work annually. Time for proactive labour protection measures everywhere. #MayDay #LabourDay #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social @gsos-lse.bsky.social

Introducing to Bluesky friends, LSE's Global School of Sustainability, @gsos-lse.bsky.social. I have the privilege of being Acting Dean until our Inaugural Dean joins. Social science-led transformation for a sustainable world

Wishing you and your loved ones a Very Happy and Healthy 2025! Wherever you are, be safe.

The labour impacts indicator by Prof @profejzrobinson.bsky.social & me is featured on the #EEA European Climate and Health Observatory! Findings clearly show non-linear impact of temperature on working hours. Losses in Cent-East, West, & Southern (large) Europe but gains up North.

1/n In the 2024 @LancetCountdown #SIDS report, Prof @profejzrobinson.bsky.social & I track the impact of increasing frequency of #heatwaves & #droughts on access to food, through impact on crop yields, disrupted supply chains & price stability.

Come work with Dr. Katie Johnson & myself #CMCC #EIEE #IDALERT. We are hiring a researcher to work on the impacts of #climatechange on #health. You will be based in Venice! Apply here: tinyurl.com/cmcc-health Deadline: 15 January 2025

Great to be part of the 2024 @LancetCountdown. Once again, work with @shourodasgupta.bsky.social, shows we can already pick up the negative impact of increasing heat & drought on food security. Partly due to impact on crop yields, but also likely due to impact on labour, incomes

1/n In the 2024 @LancetCountdown, Prof @profejzrobinson.bsky.social & I track the impact of increasing frequency of #heatwaves & #droughts on access to food. Compared to 1981–2010 baseline, increased heatwave & drought frequency resulted in an additional 151 million people being food insecure.

Thank you so much, Liz @profejzrobinson.bsky.social! I learned from the best!

First keynote - Done! Thanks to Prof Elisabetta Marzano & Prof Maria Ferrara for inviting me to the excellent COBENARE Conference at #UniversitàParthenope! #climatechange #foodsecurity @profejzrobinson.bsky.social #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social #EIEE

Delighted to have been selected as one of 78 experts (shorturl.at/NbtQs) convened by @UNFCCC to assist the #UAEBelém programme We will refine/develop indicators for measuring progress towards #GlobalGoalonAdaptation #GGA #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social #IDAlert #LancetCountdown

Prof @profejzrobinson.bsky.social (@GRI_LSE) presenting on attributing labour force changes to historical #climatechange.

Is it possible to attribute worsening health outcomes to the changing climate? We think it is. See our new paper (me @granthamlse.bsky.social and @shourodasgupta.bsky.social, CMCC) for more evidence of the health co-benefits of tackling climate change. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

1/n NEW PUBLICATION #Environmental Research Letters Climate, weather & child health: quantifying health co-benefits w/ Prof @profejzrobinson.bsky.social @granthamlse.bsky.social We quantify links between #climatechange & child health using subnational data from 130 countries.

1/n The 2nd indicator in the #LancetCountdown #Europe by Prof @profejzrobinson.bsky.social & myself explores the impact of increasing temperature on labour supply (no. of working hours) in highly exposed occupations (agri, forestry, mining & quarrying, & construction) #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social

Poverty is the leading cause of hunger in Europe. Dr. @shourodasgupta.bsky.social and I @granthamlse.bsky.social show how climate change is increasing food insecurity. More heatwaves & droughts drive up food prices, makes it harder for households to access sufficient healthy & nutritious food

In the latest @LCDEurope 2024 report - Prof @profejzrobinson.bsky.social & I track the impact of increasing frequency of #heatwaves and #droughts on access to sufficient healthy and nutritious food in #Europe. #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social #EIEE #IDAlert 🔗https://shorturl.at/inuMU

2.4bln workers exposed annually to excessive heat at work & ~20K work-related deaths Extreme heat impact on workers is a human rights issue, #climatechange will worsen this situation Time for proactive labour protection measures #LabourDay #MayDay #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social

World Day for Safety & Health at Work - #Climatechange is already affecting occupational health & safety. #ILO estimates at least 2.41 billion workers exposed annually to excessive heat at work. Time for proactive labour protection measures everywhere #SafeDay2024 #CMCC.

Thank you, Liz!

Always great to visit Prof @profejzrobinson.bsky.social @granthamlse.bsky.social. Lots of exciting & hopefully impactful work ongoing #climate #labour #health #foodsecurity #IDAlert #CMCC #PROCLIAS

Brilliant report from #GlobalWitness dlvr.it/T4Lphg My quote: We’re already seeing impacts of heat stress on workers around the world, particularly in outdoor/heavy-duty industries such as agriculture & construction...tailored labour protection policies required. #CMCC @granthamlse.bsky.social
