Introduction: Climate Change as a Global Public Health Crisis Climate change is no longer just an environmental issue; it has become a global health and human rights crisis. Across the world, vulnerable populations are disproportionately bearing the brunt of climate-related disruptions to their livelihoods, health, and access to basic human rights. From the low-lying coastal regions of Bangladesh to the drought-stricken plains of Sub-Saharan Africa, and the disappearing islands of the Pacific, the invisible toll of climate change is unfolding in ways that demand immediate, coordinated action.

Dear Diary in Late October 2025
Dear Diary, I've been reading both AI generated articles and real articles written by contributors here at Vocal.media and of course taking in the various topics jumbles up inside my mind like a math formula summing up for some conclusion. That's what this diary entry is - all those words mixing up together in my mind for an opinion, a summation. "Add it Up" sang The Violent Femmes, a band that I enjoyed listening to in my teens. Well, I do. I always do. I used to pride myself on being an excellent critiquer, until I started noticing that most contributors (whether they are serving you food, a product, a service, or some entertaining or educational reading material) want praise, not critique. And now, with AI generated articles, most of the contributors feel that there is nothing to critique because AI is perfect, right? I don't think so. I've read some of the AI generated articles. The format is shiny, the grammar and spelling mistakes absent, and the presentation is pretty --- like those photos of the perfect hamburger complete with decorative garnish. But when you go order the REAL hamburger, it doesn't look exactly like the photograph. Why not? Oh, that's right, there is a difference between REAL and Photo-Shopped. Like the difference between a real mother who breast feeds her children and a mother who would never let a baby suck on her breasts because that's "disgusting".
