Climate change is already affecting our health, but the connections are not always obvious.

So, let’s talk about them over a pint! 🍺​

​

Pint of Science Thailand is teaming up with Bangkok Climate Action Week 2026 for
Under the Weather: Climate Change, Health and Ethics, an evening of short talks,
open conversations and interactive activities at Marshall Livehouse, Bangkok.

​

Through four different perspectives, we’ll explore how climate change connects with our health and everyday lives. We’ll look at how changing climate and environmental conditions can influence infectious diseases, how climate change can contribute to the growing challenge of antimicrobial resistance, and how air pollution affects our health, including why some people may be more exposed or have fewer opportunities to protect themselves. But understanding the science is only part of the conversation. We’ll also explore how climate change is communicated in ways that make sense to the communities experiencing it. What happens when the language and imagery commonly used to communicate climate change do not reflect Southeast Asian experiences and context? And how can these conversations become more locally relevant, accessible and meaningful?

​

Our speakers will bring research and real-world perspectives from infectious disease, environmental health,
public engagement and health policy. There will also be plenty of opportunities to ask questions,
share your own perspectives and think about what climate and health mean in everyday life. 

​

The event is part of this year’s Bangkok Climate Action Week and its theme,

เราลิขิต / RaoLikit: Economy We Shape, Climate We Share.

 

Together, we’ll consider not only the health challenges linked to a changing climate,

but also how individuals, communities, researchers and policymakers can contribute

to healthier and more climate-resilient communities.

​

​Whether you work in science, health, policy or education, or are simply curious

about what climate change has to do with your health, come join us.

No specialist knowledge required — just bring your curiosity!

🌱 A small request for a climate-friendly Pint 🌱

As part of Bangkok Climate Action Week, we’re also trying to better understand
and reduce the environmental footprint of our event.

​

When you arrive, we’ll ask you one quick question about

how you travelled to the venue, for example by BTS/MRT, bus, car, taxi or on foot.

This will help us estimate the carbon footprint associated with travel to the event.

​

If you can, please bring your own reusable cup, flask or refillable water bottle
to help us reduce single-use waste. 

 

Small actions and useful data can help us learn how to make
future Pint of Science Thailand events more sustainable.
