The blood pressure blog has updated its list of clinically validated blood pressure monitors. The machines, all approved by the British Hypertension Society are ideal for using at home as well as in medical environments. The main manufacturers are Omron, A & D and Microlife.
On the same blog we learned how weather affects blood pressure - both cold weather and more recently the effects of climate change such as global warming can have on hypertension.
Wikitravel now includes a pages about blood pressure in its general travel section which help travellers whith high blood pressure and recieving treatment for it prepare for holidays ant trips. You will find tips about geting prescriptions, seeking medical help and trying to control your blood pressure whilst abroad. Special information about blood pressure and travel insurance with lots of helpful information about what you should do and what you must avoid if you have high blood pressure and want travel insurance for a holiday.
Air travel contributes to carbon emissions and greenhouse gases that are the primary cause of climate change which leads to global warming.

You can make a charity donation directly or use mainstream donation sites such as Justgiving who have dedicated fundraising pages for climate change.
