Which we live

Global warming and climate change have impacts on the health

Of our food, water sources and our ecosystems

These impacts will affect disproportionately the poorest

And weakest especially children and the elderly

Heat waves and periods of unusually hard warm weather

Warming allow mosquitoes that transmit full diseases

Earlier spring arrival may disrupt migrations

Ocean warming, sea-level rise and coral reef bleaching

Lead to increases in heat-related illness and death

Spreading disease all range shifts population changes

Alter competitive balances among species

Coastal flooding pollution

Arctic and Antarctic warming or the glaciers melting

Affect downpours, heavy snowfalls, the flooding and damages

Increasing extremities in the weather patterns

Global dimming whereby less heat and energy reaches the

Droughts and fires are more frequent and severe

Disrupting an important source of water

Affected plants and animals that provide our food

Human practices exacerbate the risk
