Rising Health Risks

Climate change is one of the biggest threats to global public health today. Rising temperatures, poor air quality, and extreme weather events lead to respiratory diseases, heat strokes, and food shortages.

Vector-Borne Diseases

Warmer climates allow mosquitoes and other disease carriers to spread to new regions, increasing cases of malaria, dengue, and Zika virus. Public health systems must adapt quickly to this growing challenge.

Food and Water Safety

Floods, droughts, and pollution affect food security and water safety. Contaminated water leads to outbreaks of cholera and other infections. Public health departments must ensure safe resources and sustainable farming.

Climate Action as Health Action

Fighting climate change isn’t just about saving the planet — it’s about saving lives. Clean energy, reduced pollution, and green cities are all investments in public health.
