Summary: As medical schools revamp their curricula, they need to integrate climate change education to prepare future physicians. However, climate and health education has not been fully institutionalized. This study examines the content at one medical school undergoing curriculum changes and highlights the need for a shared vision, professional development, and climate-specific resources.

Summary: Climate change is causing rapid and widespread degradation of the environmental conditions that previously supported species survival. Current projections of climate change mainly focus on acute environmental anomalies and global extinction risks, without considering species-specific patterns. As a result, we lack knowledge about the explicit dimensions of climate risk that are essential for predicting future biodiversity responses and developing effective management and conservation strategies.

Summary: This paper contributes to the analysis of climate change risk in European cities and regions by developing a new spatially-explicit typology of climate risk. The analysis reveals an uneven distribution of climate change risk across countries, highlights the differences in risk characteristics between urban and rural areas, and identifies patterns of spatial clustering in climate change risk.

Summary: This study examines the impact of climate change knowledge, anxiety, and experience on climate adaptation among farmers. The results show that climate change anxiety and knowledge significantly enhance climate change adaptation, while climate change experience has an inverse relationship with climate change adaptation. Moreover, farmers engaged in mixed farming, partnership and cooperation/organization, and with a certain level of monthly income demonstrate significantly higher climate change adaptation.
