How can we address the impacts of climate change on health?
Addressing climate and health issues requires strengthening the resilience of health systems, improving surveillance and early warning capabilities, developing adaptation and prevention strategies, and involving communities in the responses implemented.
It also means addressing the causes of climate change by promoting more sustainable and equitable lifestyles and development models that respect ecosystems.
Protecting ecosystems and reducing the impacts of climate change also means protecting people’s health, both today and tomorrow.
