29、ns, and some kids who have low screen times also have low levels of physical activity, he points out.As well, screen time is not necessarily bad, Janssen said. “The tricky part is that children today need to be using computers,” he said.

35、led disease “spillover(蔓延,溢出)” from animals to humans.“As people move and wildlife move in response to a changing environment, humans and wildlife and animals will come in contact more regularly, said Jeanne Fair from the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico. Fair argues that by shifting (转移

36、) animal habitats, climate change will also make the opportunities for disease spillover more frequent. “Everything is sort of shifting and will shift into the future as the environment changes through climate change, Fair said.Scientists, including climatologists and epidemiologists on Fairs team a

37、t Los Alamos, are beginning to model how changes to the climate will impact the spread of infectious diseases.

Jeffrey Shaman, head of the climate and health program at Columbia Universitys public health school, argues we dont yet know
