Beschreibungen
This <i>Springer essential</i> addresses the impacts of the climate crisis by integrating various branches of research from psychology and neuroscience. Climate change has massive effects on both the physical and mental health of individuals. The essential describes changes in brain function and structure due to environmental influences and explains the influence of ecological niches on brain evolution. The core part of the book focuses on the effects of the climate crisis on mental health, presents strategies for action in healthcare, and finally provides an outlook into the future of climate neuroscience.
Introduction.- The Climate Crisis: Where We Stand, What We Know.- Environmental Neuroscience – More Relevant Than Ever.- Ecological Niches and the Evolution of the Brain.- How Global Warming Affects Mental Health.- Washed Away: Floods and Other Natural Disasters as Trauma Triggers.- Species Extinction, Ecosystems, and Mental Health.- Urgency in Healthcare: The Time is Now!.- The Future of Climate Neuroscience.
