As climate impacts intensify, they are becoming one of the most significant health crises of this century. Extreme weather conditions like forest fires, heatwaves, hurricanes, and floods have widespread devastation, deaths, and displacements. The cause of these occurrences is increased human activity like burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and urbanization. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports that human activities have contributed to the warming of the planet since 1950. Health is strongly connected to the changing environment. To avoid an impending catastrophe, the world’s temperature must not rise above 1.5°C.
Every additional tenth of a degree adds massively to warming the planet and tolls on people’s lives and health.
