Abstract

Planetary health influences mental health and a better management of climate, biodiversity and pollution has co-benefits of improving mental health outcomes. The recognition and treatment of mental health, however, has been marginalized within environmental and climate change sciences and a greater understanding of the complex underlying processes and societal costs is required to appropriately manage and motivate policy responses. The paper provides seven recommendations underscoring that public policy developers and implementors need to be aware of the combined costs of inaction - that might accrue from neglecting mental health and environmental sciences- two areas that have been historically marginalized. Improved methodologies in conducting studies on the nature and mental health nexus are needed. The trajectories and models of adaptation and mitigation of climate change and environmental damage can be strengthened through adoption of mental and behavioral sciences approach.

行星健康与心理健康的联系:在决策中最不被理解和接受。
行星健康会影响心理健康,而更好地管理气候、生物多样性和污染则可以改善心理健康。然而,在环境和气候变化科学中,对心理健康的认识和治疗一直被边缘化,需要对复杂的基本过程和社会成本有更深入的了解,以适当地管理和激励政策反应。本文提出了七项建议,强调公共政策的制定者和执行者需要意识到不作为的综合代价--忽视心理健康和环境科学这两个历来被边缘化的领域可能产生的代价。需要改进研究自然与心理健康关系的方法。通过采用心理和行为科学方法,可以加强适应和减缓气候变化和环境破坏的轨迹和模式。
