Where you live: It impacts your health as much as diet and genes do, but it's not part of your medical records. At TEDMED, Bill Davenhall shows how overlooked government geo-data (from local heart-attack rates to toxic dumpsite info) can mesh with mobile GPS apps to keep doctors in the loop. Call it "geo-medicine."

But this is where I spent my first 19 years with my little young lungs. You know, breathing high concentrations here of sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide and methane gas, in unequal quantities -- 19 years of this. And if you've been in that part of the country, this is what those piles of burning, smoldering coal waste look like. So, then I decided to leave that part of the world. And I was going to go to the mid-west. Okay, so, I ended up in Louisville Kentucky. Well, I decided to be neighbors to a place called Rubbertown. They manufacture plastics. They use large quantities chloroprene and benzene. Okay, I spent 25 years, in my middle-aged lungs now, breathing various concentrations of that. And on a clear day it always looked like this, so you never saw it. It was insidious and it was really happening. And then I decided I had to get really smart, I would take this job in the west coast. And I moved to Redlands California. Very nice, and there my older, senior lungs, as I'd like to call them, I filled with particulate matter, carbon dioxide, and very high doses of ozone. Okay? Almost like the highest in the nation. This is what it looks like on a good day. If you've been there, you know what I'm talking about.现在,我要带你们做一趟小小旅程-从宾州的斯克兰顿出发。我不知道是否有来自宾州东北部的人,但这就是我生命最初的19年,还有我“年少”的肺部所处的地方。你知道,呼吸这里高浓度的二氧化硫、二氧化碳、和甲烷气体,这些不等量的气体-19年都是如此。如果你去过美国的那部份地区,这就是大量燃烧及闷烧的煤废气看起来的样子。所以,我决定离开那部分的世界,我要到中西部去。,最后我到了肯塔基州的路易斯维尔。嗯,我决定在邻近一个叫Rubbertown的地方落脚。他们生产塑胶制品,使用大量的氯丁二烯还有苯。我花了25年,用我“中年”的肺部呼吸这些不同浓度的气体。在好天气时,它总是看起来像这样,所以你不会看到这些污染。这是潜伏的,但确实存在的污染。然后,我决定必须得真正聪明点,我要接下在西岸的工作。我搬到加州的雷德兰兹,那儿非常好。还有我老了的、年纪大了的肺,这是我一向对它的称呼。充满了颗粒物、二氧化碳、和非常高量的臭氧,几乎可说是全国最高的。这就是它在好天气时看起来的样子。如果你曾去过那里,你会了解我所说的。这篇材料你能听出多少?点击这里做听写,提高外语水平>>
