Climate Change and Health Assessment

Climate Change and Health Assessment evaluates how changing climate conditions—like rising temperatures and extreme weather—affect human health. It examines issues such as increased heat-related illnesses, respiratory problems from poorer air quality, and the spread of diseases carried by insects, like malaria. The assessment also considers the mental health impacts of climate-related disasters and food security threats. By understanding these connections, policymakers and health professionals can develop strategies to protect public health and build resilience against climate impacts. Overall, it highlights the importance of addressing climate change for the health of individuals and communities.
