Climate-Driven Health Outcomes

  • Injury, morbidity, and mortality associated with extreme weather events (e.g., floods, droughts, heatwaves, wildfires)

  • Heat- and cold-related illnesses and physiological stress

  • Vector-borne and water-borne diseases (e.g., malaria, cholera, dengue)

  • Zoonotic diseases and climate-linked antimicrobial resistance

  • Airborne and respiratory illnesses related to climate variability and environmental pollution (e.g., meningitis, air quality impacts)
