Climate of sickness

August 01, 2024
Climate change is increasingly affecting human health through heatwaves, extreme weather events, and the spread of infectious diseases. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that climate change will cause approximately 250,000 additional deaths per year between 2030 and 2050. In 2023, regions such as South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa experienced severe heatwaves, exacerbating respiratory and cardiovascular conditions.
Vector-borne diseases like malaria and dengue are spreading to new areas due to changing climate patterns. Addressing the health impacts of climate change involves strengthening healthcare systems, enhancing early warning systems, and promoting climate-resilient infrastructure.
