Golden Horseshoe is awarded to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences for spending approximately $413,000 to study the adverse impact climate change is purportedly having on the mental health of young people. The award is named for the horseshoe shaped toilet seats for military airplanes that cost the Pentagon a whopping $640 each back in the 1980s
Causal Analysis of the Complex Mental Health Impacts of the Climate Crisis in Young People
- Few studies have fully examined climate- mental health on a national level to determine which types or combinations of climate events (extreme heat, hurricanes, extreme heat in the context of a hurricane) are connected to mental health consequences in young people.
- The overarching goal is to comprehensively examine the sensitivity of mental health impacts to climate disasters in youth, as well as the compounding and cascading effect of concurrent extreme events across the U.S.
- "New research recognizes the role that environmental factors sensitive to climate change and variability (e.g., increasing temperatures, heat waves) may play in the complex pathway linking environmental exposures and negative mental health and well-being outcomes" among the young, stipulates the proposed Causal Analysis of the Complex Mental Health Impacts of the Climate Crisis in Young People.
- This week's Golden Horseshoe is awarded to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences for spending approximately $413,000 to study the adverse impact climate change is purportedly having on the mental health of young people.
- The crisis service will provide researchers with data on people who seek "mental health help in response to extreme climate events of hurricanes, wildfires, and heatwaves," wrote OpenTheBooks.com CEO and founder Adam Andrzejewski at RealClear Policy.
