听他们呼吸:一名气候前线儿科医生的视角[Audiobook]
A timely, revelatory first look into the impact climate change has on children—the greatest moral crisis humanity faces today—by a pediatrician in the fastest warming city in America. Wildfires, hurricanes, and heat waves make headlines. But what is happening in Debra Hendrickson’s clinic tells another story of this strange and unsettling time. Hendrickson is a pediatrician in Reno, Nevada—the fastest warming city in the United States, where ash falls like snow during summer wildfires. In The Air They Breathe, Dr. Hendrickson recounts patients she’s seen who were harmed by worsening smoke, smog, and pollen; two boys in Arizona, stricken by record-setting heat while hiking; children who fled for their lives from Hurricane Harvey and the Tubbs Fire; and a little girl whose life was forever altered by the Zika virus outbreak in 2016. The climate crisis is a health crisis, and it is a health crisis, first and foremost, for children. Children’s bodies are interwoven with and shaped by their surroundings. As the planet warms and their environment changes, children’s health is at risk. The youngest are especially vulnerable because their brain, lungs, and other organs are forming and growing every day, and because their physiology is so different from that of adults. Childhood has always been a risky period of life; throughout history, babies and children have met peril, from polio to famine, from cyclones to war. Yet they have never quite had to face, in quite this way, the potential loss of the future itself. The Air They Breathe is not just about the health impacts of global warming, but something more: a soul-stirring reminder of our moral responsibility to our children, and their profound connections to this unique and irreplaceable world.
一篇儿科医生在全美升温最快的拉斯维加斯所开设诊所里,对气候变化对孩子影响的及时、令人震惊的第一瞥——人类今天面临的最大道德危机——由一位儿科医生揭开。 wildfires,hurricanes和heat waves成为头条新闻。但德布拉·亨德里克森诊所中发生的故事讲述了一个与之不同的奇怪且不安定的时代故事。 亨德里克森是内华达州拉斯维加斯的儿科医生,在美国升温最快的地区之一——拉斯维加斯,火灾导致的灰烬在夏天像雪一样落下。 在《他们呼吸的空气》一书中,哈丁森博士回忆起她所见到的一些患者,这些患者的健康受到了日益恶化的烟雾、雾霾和花粉的影响;来自亚利桑那州的两个男孩,在经历创纪录高温后因徒步旅行而生病; 从飓风哈维和特布斯大火逃离家园的孩子们;以及2016年寨卡病毒爆发使得一个小女孩的生活变得永生难忘。 气候变化是健康危机,首先和最重要的,是对孩子们的健康危机。孩子们的身体与周围的环境交织在一起,并受到其影响。随着地球变暖和环境变化,孩子的健康处于危险之中。 最小的孩子尤其脆弱,因为他们的大脑、肺部和其他器官每天都正在形成和生长; 因为他们自身的生理特性不同于成年人。 儿童始终是生命中风险最大的时期之一; 在历史上,婴儿和孩子总是面对过各种危机:从脊髓灰质炎到饥荒,从飓风到战争。 但从未像这样面对自己未来的潜在丧失。《他们呼吸的空气》不仅仅讲述了全球变暖对健康的影响,更是一种震撼心灵的责任感提醒——对我们孩子的责任,以及他们与这个独特且无可替代的世界之间的深刻联系。
