Climate change impacts essential elements of our environment and health by intensifying existing health threats and supporting emergence of new global health problems. 气候变化加剧的一些值得注意的问题是呼吸系统疾病和心血管疾病, injuries related with environmental changes, 以及食品和水的安全/保障和传染病格局的变化. 世界卫生组织估计在2030年到2050年之间, climate change will cause 250,到2030年,每年的卫生费用将增加20 - 40亿美元. In addition, 气候变化是造成比以往任何时候都更加频繁的复杂紧急情况的一个主要因素.

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Nino Kharaishvili and Ms. Andrea Rezzonico about health and climate intersection and how it impacts the global One Health initiative and our common ecosystem. We will be exploring geographical areas around the globe and examine population categories that are most affected by the climate change and complex emergencies. 

We will also be discussing some actions that policy makers and leaders around the world need to take to build population resilience towards adverse effects coming from the climate change.
