While they are pissing around in Bali and (thank FUCK LJ saved this entry, my browser closed).
I've had a few things to post in this journal for a while that people have kindly allowed me to steal. Here's one from [info]sentienthing called Climate change and public health, from a medical magazine, which argues, like I have done, that doctors and nurses should be more into the environment. Isn't it better to prevent injury and illness than deal with it later? Surely they are taught that? I want to print this and take it to local hospitals. The medicine companies, that I can understand, but not people who have devoted themselves to helping people live. Also, see the link to see me arguing with a climate change denier! Quite well too I think.

What is the correlation between this and medicine however, you may be asking? The answer is that climate change cannot be separated from its public health implications. People are already suffering from its effects and the future impact has been predicted to include changing food production worldwide and associated malnutrition; an increase in tropical diseases and waterborne illnesses and a generally increased worldwide burden of illness. We in the UK will also be unable to escape the effects and it will be our generation of medical students that will have to treat those affected.
It was my last time DJing at Bomb Ibiza last night. I did it for over 3 years and it got more fun as it went on, rather than less. Here's my last setlist:

11:20 - 12:00

The Filaments - The Farse
4ft Fingers - Hopeless Romantic
The Code - 40 hour week (thanks [info]roach_!)
Smoke Like A Fish - Alright Jack
The Specials - Free Nelson Mandela
Ye Wiles - In Appreciation of Zoltan Kanoly
Rancid - 1998
Link 80 - For The Crown
Sublime - The Ballad of Johnny Butt
Operation Ivy - Yellin' In My Ear
Capdown - Faith No More (live)
Mouthwash - We Evolve
Propagandhi - Ska Sucks (immediately after which the music stopped and Em auctioned off the right to shave off Mikey Wongs quiff for charity)

1:50 - 2:25

Lightyear - Blindside
Leftover Crack - Crack City Rockers
Streetlight Manifesto - The Receiving End Of It All
King Prawn - Day In, Day Out
Duff Muffin - Pipe Down
[spunge] - Kicking Pigeons 2001
Less Than Jake - All My Best Friends Are Metalheads
Adequate 7 - Gotta Stay Focused
No Comply - Silencio
Capdown - Headstrong

What was the last song of the night, that Em played after announcing it was my last night and saying thank you?
Mariah Carey.

Ever hear of that band Too Many DJs?

Hah, I cant believe I just thought of that.

But really, it's not too bad. I was going to have to leave pretty soon anyway. I had fun and free drinks and there are other fun times to come. 3 years is plenty.

My friend is a medical student who is quite heavily into climate change. He's sent me loads of articles about the links. I'll email some to you if you like.

Cool! Yeah I'd be interested, if they are from an angle you and I might not appreciate yet since we arent medicals.

Since knowing him I've realised how much climate change campaigning goes on in the med student world. Reassured me a bit!
