Climate change is more than just an environmental challenge—it's a looming healthcare crisis. As our planet warms, we're seeing a rise in illnesses, deaths, and catastrophic events like hurricanes and earthquakes. The impact on our health is undeniable, from respiratory issues to the spread of diseases. But the good news is, it’s not too late to take action. Together, we can still make a difference. 🌍💚 #ClimateChange #HealthCrisis #EnvironmentalImpact #ActNow

Climate change isn't just about rising temperatures, it's a health crisis too. From heat stress to extreme cold, the impacts are real. With a changing climate and longer life expectancy, the elderly face heightened vulnerability to temperature-related illnesses, Heat stress becomes more than just discomfort, it becomes a life-threatening event for those with limited access to cooling shelters or medical care. Let's raise awareness and take action to protect our planet and the vulnerable among us. #Climate #Climatechange

Climate change is a fundamental threat to human health. Rising temperatures and changes in weather patterns are increasing the frequency and severity of heat waves, wildfires, droughts, floods, landslides, hurricanes, and other causes of injury and illness. Between 2030 and 2050, climate change is expected to cause approximately 250,000 additional deaths per year, from undernutrition, malaria, diarrheas and heat stress alone . I recently completed a course on climate change and learned about the impact of climate change on human health. It’s alarming to see how climate change is affecting our health and well-being. But it’s also inspiring to see how we can take action to mitigate climate change and protect our health. Here are some things I learned from the course: 1.Climate change is a threat multiplier, undermining and potentially reversing decades of health progress. 2.The effects of climate change on human health are increasingly well studied and quantified. 3.We need to take action to mitigate climate change and protect our health. I’m sharing this post to raise awareness about the impact of climate change on human health and inspire others to take action. Let’s work together to create a healthier and more sustainable future for ourselves and future generations. 🌍🌱 #climatechange, #health, #sustainability,#climateaction

"Every fraction of a degree of warming we prevent could save millions of lives through reduction in air pollution." Taking action on climate is taking action for a healthier future for all. Climate change is a major threat to our health, both mental and physical, and is having serious impacts across the lifespan in communities around the world, from newborn babies to people in later life. Research is even showing negative health impacts starting in utero where mothers are exposed to extreme weather events. Is this sufficiently part of national conversation on health and health services in Ireland? Climate action is health action. #ClimateAction #ClimateHealth #ChildrensRights.
