E se o Mundo Declarasse Guerra ao Calor em 1972?

A study released by Fiocruz and UFBA estimates that heat waves were associated with approximately 120,000 deaths in Brazil between 2000 and 2019. But what if the world had treated extreme heat as a public health threat since 1972? In this episode, we return to the Stockholm Conference, the first major UN world conference on the environment, and imagine an alternative reality: a mandatory treaty on heat adaptation, clean energy, and health protection for tropical countries. Would Brazil have more shaded cities? Would the SUS (Brazilian public health system) have had heat protocols sooner? Could some of these deaths have been avoided? Comment: if the world had declared war on heat in 1972, would Brazil be better prepared today? #AlternativeHistory #ESe #ClimateChange #Brazil #Palitoman
