A global study of more than 13,000 workers finds major life events – from returning to work after becoming a parent, to getting divorced and losing a loved one – can have a significant impact on people's health and wellbeing, contributing to an estimated $636 billion in lost productivity and 1.7 billion working days lost globally each year. Economic modelling suggests earlier mental health support before or during major life events could save $42 billion and recover 108 million working days annually. Those who took proactive steps such as talking to friends and family, seeking professional support or speaking to a healthcare provider, took an average of five fewer days off work due to better health, with 7 in 10 wishing they had taken earlier action to support their mental health before or during a major life event. Findings reveal a significant opportunity to improve health, boost the economy and help people navigate life's biggest moments through earlier mental health support.

For more, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec speak with Sam Miley, Head of Forecasting and Thought Leadership at the Centre for Economics and Business Research and Andrea Christie-David, Director of Mental Health at Bupa, an international private healthcare company

Extreme weather is slamming the US. Wildfire smoke is degrading air quality in New York as intense heat across much of the country had led a grid in the country’s midsection to declare an emergency. In California, utility PG&E Corp. warned that power shutoffs will be required across several counties as dry conditions and gusty winds increase fire risks.

Wildfire smoke from hundreds of fires burning across Canada blanketed parts of the Great Lakes, Midwest and Northeast on Wednesday, turning the sun over New York City and Toronto into a hazy, yellowish orb. Air quality dropped to unhealthy levels in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens, as well as Toronto, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency’s AirNow.gov. Chicago will likely see its air quality fall to unhealthy levels Thursday.

“This will be a prolonged event, and we may see worse air quality tomorrow,” said Amanda Lefton, commissioner of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, adding that the smoke will come “in waves” throughout the day.

On this episode, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec speak with:
Emily Forgash, Bloomberg News Weather Reporter on heat wave, Canada wildfire smoke and NYC air warning
John Engel, Vice President of Digital Strategy & Strategic Innovation, OATI on the burden of summer heat on utilities and what consumers can do to keep energy bills low and products running efficiently
Mark Gurman, Bloomberg News Managing Editor for Global Consumer Tech on Apple Gets Approval for iPhone AI in China With Alibaba, Baidu AND OpenAI’s First Device Will Be Speaker Built as AI Companion
Natalie Lung, Bloomberg News Tech and Consumer Apps Reporter AND Kara Carlson, Bloomberg News EV Reporter on Robotaxi Riders Are Falling Asleep, Sparking Frantic 911 Calls

The US weather-forecasting system is gathering less information due to budget and staffing cuts by the Trump administration, which could lead to a decline in forecast quality. Meteorologists warn that the reduced data collection, including fewer weather balloon launches, increases the risk of missing extreme weather turns, which could result in unnecessary deaths, property losses, and economic disruption. The lack of real-time data and reduced forecasting accuracy may lead to higher insurance costs, as insurers price in the uncertainty, and could also cause "alarm fatigue" when people become desensitized to warnings due to overreaction by emergency managers.
