Influence of Climate Change on Working Conditions in the Late 21st Century

Abstract: The adverse effects of climate change may affect work conducted outdoors. For this reason, this study seeks to evaluate these effects by comparing South American work capacity under climate conditions between 1979 and 2005, as well as expected future climate scenarios from 2071 to 2100. Thermal stress was estimated using the Environmental Stress Index (ESI), based on atmospheric variables for climate projections from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The results indicate that, even in favor… Show more

“…Changes in weather and climate patterns can have deleterious impacts on the environmental, economic and social sectors (Mendelsohn, 2008; Mideksa and Kallbekken, 2010; Darela Filho et al ., 2016; Hoegh‐Guldberg et al ., 2018; Shi et al ., 2018; Lapola et al ., 2019). Such impacts can be intensified by global warming, as analysed by several studies addressing changes in water availability (Gosling and Arnell, 2016; Chen et al ., 2017; Ul Hasson et al ., 2019), impacts on the agricultural and forest sectors (Santos et al ., 2017; Pirovani et al ., 2018; Tavares et al ., 2018; Elli et al ., 2020; Reis et al ., 2021) and livestock (Boone et al ., 2018), food security (Alfieri et al ., 2017; Allen et al ., 2018; Hoegh‐Guldberg et al ., 2018; IPCC, 2018; Rogelj et al ., 2018), species distribution (Pecl et al ., 2017; Da Silva et al ., 2019; Lapola et al ., 2020), energy generation and transmission (Jiang et al ., 2018; Gambhir et al ., 2019), in the intensity and frequency of extreme events (Alfieri et al ., 2017; Lewis et al ., 2019; Li et al ., 2019; Silva et al ., 2019; Avila‐Diaz et al ., 2020) and in human health (Shi et al ., 2018; Souza et al ., 2020).…”

“…Community members report that due to the exhausting work and the increasing heat in recent years, they have put aside this crop. It is expected that throughout the 21st century, jobs associated with agriculture will be drastically reduced due to the increase in temperature and the increase in the cases of diseases caused by the high-temperature sensation and contact with ultraviolet radiation [37].…”
