      abstract = {This book is a guide to the research, findings, and  discussions of US and international experts on climate  change and respiratory health. Since the publication of the  first edition, climate change has been increasingly  acknowledged as being directly related to the prevalence  and incidence of respiratory morbidity. Evidence is  increasing that climate change does drive respiratory  disease onset and exacerbation as a result of increased  ambient and indoor air pollution, desertification, heat  stress, wildfires, and the geographic and temporal spread  of pollens, molds and infectious agents. This second  edition is fully updated to include the latest research by  international experts on topics such as heat waves causing  critical care-related diseases, climate-driven air  pollution increases, and high-level ozone and ozone  exposure linked to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, lung  cancer, and acute lower respiratory infection. Seven new  chapters have also been added on extreme weather and  agricultural safety in California; desert dust effects on  lung health; climate policy and the EPA; California's  integrated approach to air quality and climate change;  integrating climate change, the environment, and  sustainability themes into professional health science  courses; and the role of the physician as climate advocate.  This is an ideal guide for all pulmonologists and health  professionals treating patients with pulmonary disease.},
