Public health impact of heatwaves

This article published in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/jun/21/heatwaves-national-…

provides an excellent overview of the public health impact of heatwaves - and looks at why the impact is not effectively measured and report and subsequent responses are -optimal. 

Fascinating link to research indicating that the UK public perceive that flooding and heatwaves have become less rather than more common in their lifetimes - which may then impact on motivation to act on climate change.
