"As government representatives gather at the COP29 international climate summit
in Azerbaijan, the impact of climate change on young people’s mental health
needs to be an urgent priority.
As psychiatrists working with children and adolescents, we’re so concerned that
we’re sharing our research at the summit on the link between higher
temperatures and suicidal thoughts and behaviours.
Our recent study shows young people are more likely to present at the emergency
department for suicidal thoughts and behaviours in hotter weather.
Here’s what we found and why one of us (Cybele Dey) is presenting our findings
at COP29."
