Abstract

Climate change poses significant risks to human health, influencing disease patterns, food security, air quality, and access to clean water. Rising global temperatures contribute to heat-related illnesses, while changing weather patterns intensify the spread of vector-borne diseases. Additionally, climate change exacerbates respiratory conditions due to increased air pollution. This paper explores the direct and indirect impacts of climate change on human health, emphasizing the need for immediate intervention and policy-driven solutions.
