Impacts of climate change on human health receive increasing attention. However, the connections of climate change with well-being and mental health are still poorly understood.
As part of the Horizon Europe project TRIGGER, we aim to deepen the understanding of the relationships between climate change and human mental health and well-being in Europe by focusing on environmental and socio-individual determinants.
This study is a systematic literature review based on the PRISMA guidelines using Embase, Medline and Web of Science.
143 records were retrieved. The results show that climate change and its specific hazards (air pollution, floods, wildfires, meteorological variables, and temperature extremes) impact human well-being and mental health.
Mental health and well-being outcomes are complex, extremely individual, and can be long lasting. Determinants like the living surrounding, human's life activities as well as socio-individual determinants alter the linkage between climate change and mental health. The same determinant can exert both a pathogenic and a salutogenic effect, depending on the outcome. Knowing the effects of the determinants is of high relevance to improve resilience. Several pathways were identified. For instance, higher level of education and female gender lead to perceiving climate change as a bigger threat but increase preparedness to climate hazards. Elderly, children and adolescents are at higher risks of mental health problems. On the other hand, social relation, cohesiveness and support from family and friends are generally protective. Green and blue spaces improve well-being and mental health. Overall, comparing the different hazard-outcome relationships is difficult due to varying definitions, measurement techniques, spatial and temporal range, scales, indicators and population samples.

气候变化对人类健康的影响日益受到关注。然而，气候变化与幸福感和心理健康之间的联系仍未得到充分理解。
作为“地平线欧洲”项目TRIGGER的一部分，我们旨在通过关注环境和社会个体决定因素，加深对欧洲气候变化与人类心理健康及幸福感之间关系的理解。
本研究是一项基于PRISMA指南的系统文献综述，使用了Embase、Medline和科学网。
共检索到143条记录。结果表明，气候变化及其特定危害（空气污染、洪水、野火、气象变量和极端温度）会影响人类的幸福感和心理健康。
心理健康和幸福感的结果是复杂的、极具个体性的，且可能持续很长时间。生活环境、人类生活活动以及社会个体决定因素等决定因素会改变气候变化与心理健康之间的联系。同一决定因素可能会产生致病和有益健康的两种效果，具体取决于结果。了解这些决定因素的影响对于提高恢复力至关重要。确定了几种途径。例如，较高的教育水平和女性性别会导致将气候变化视为更大的威胁，但会增加对气候危害的准备。老年人、儿童和青少年面临心理健康问题的风险更高。另一方面，社会关系、凝聚力以及家人和朋友的支持通常具有保护作用。绿色和蓝色空间可改善幸福感和心理健康。总体而言，由于定义、测量技术、时空范围、尺度、指标和人口样本各不相同，比较不同的危害-结果关系很困难。
