These studies suggest that climate change and pollution negatively impact human health through direct and indirect effects such as respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, cancer, heat stress, extreme weather events, and social disruptions, with vulnerable populations being disproportionately affected.
The health effects of pollution and climate change are increasingly recognized as significant global public health challenges. Research has shown that these environmental factors can have both direct and indirect impacts on human health, affecting a wide range of health outcomes from respiratory and cardiovascular diseases to mental health and infectious diseases.
Direct Health Impacts of Climate Change:
Air Pollution and Respiratory Health:
Cardiovascular Health:
Vector-Borne and Infectious Diseases:
Mental Health and Social Impacts:
Health Benefits of Mitigation and Adaptation:
The health effects of pollution and climate change are multifaceted, impacting respiratory and cardiovascular health, increasing the prevalence of vector-borne and infectious diseases, and exacerbating mental health issues. Vulnerable populations, including the elderly, children, and socioeconomically disadvantaged groups, are particularly at risk. Effective mitigation and adaptation strategies are essential to reduce these health impacts and protect public health.
