Although specialized indigenous patient support services exist, gaps in consistent access to services that are culturally specific are present. Better implementation of protective factors like culturally specific support services are critical to reduce disparities and provide better cardiovascular care for Indigenous people
As climate change worsens, it will increasingly impact the water-energy nexus (water power for electricity, water to cool fossil energy generation, energy for irrigation...). This One Earth Research Article uses climate analog cities, i.e. cities that are currently experiencing the climatic conditions expected in the future for a given city, to explore how future water/energy demands might change. The results are relevant for planning climate adaption (SDG 13) for more sustainable cities (SDG 11).
The paper underscores the urgency of addressing climate change's impact on biodiversity through transboundary conservation efforts, offering guidelines for designing climate-smart marine protected area (MPA) networks in regions like the California Bight, highlighting the need for international coordination to ensure effective protection and adaptation strategies for vulnerable species and ecosystems.
As artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning become increasingly embedded in recruiting and hiring processes, employers must be aware of the potential discrimination risks these tools can pose. This article relates to SDGs 5, 8, and 10
This Article supports SDGs 3, 10, and 13 by evaluating the effect of ambient temperature on mobility within large cities and urban areas, particularly focusing on the subway system in New York city.

With a pressing climate emergency and increasing interconnectedness, the need for action on health at a global level is greater than ever. Achieving Universal Health Coverage with a strong base in primary healthcare is essential. This must be accompanied by policies to address the socioeconomic and environmental determinants of ill health, supporting SDG3.
The physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs of an individual are critically important, and require specific strategies to optimize Indigenous heart health.

This Personal View supports SDG 3 and 10 by explaining how children's health outcomes in the USA could be improved by adhering to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child - ie, adopt policies that promote children's rights and wellbeing. This would help to address the comparatively poor health outcomes of children in the USA despite the high per-capita health spending.
