Public health
I am looking for a public health physician to write this
section.
Physicians working in the field of public health medicine
seem to be more aware than most of the potential impact of
peak oil and related issues on public health. Most of
the papers published in medical journals in recent years (see
Medical Literature Review) are
from public health physicians. Most of the papers
identify the same set of problems: a peak in oil production
and consumption leading, on the other side of the peak, to
economic disruption, resource scarcity, increasing
unemployment and poverty, all of which have potential impacts
on public health.
