Climate Change and Health

Affect on Health

What is Climate Change?

What is Climate Change?

Climate change is the change in weather patterns due to atmospheric changes which are caused by various components including humans.

This is an example of climate change since the Earth is heating up and losing its natural resources.

Greenhouse Effect

The Greenhouse effect is caused by the Sun's warmth being trapped in Earth’s atmosphere. Too much will cause extreme climate change.

Greenhouse Gas

This is a labeled diagram of the Greenhouse Effect.

Nutrition and Climate Change

Climate Change has caused a large decrease in precipitation. This causes crop decline which means higher prices on food and higher rates of malnutrition. This leads to lower levels of concentration, a weak immune system, and lack of growth.

Nutrition

This is an example of crop decline due to lack of precipitation.

Chemical Reactions

2CH4+4O2-->2CO2+4H2O+Heat

( Combustion )

1C+1O2-->1CO2+Heat

Scientist Efforts

This is a diagram of the Greenhouse Effect.

Increase in Death Related to Heat

The drastic increase of greenhouse gas has caused an overwhelming change in temperature. Days seem to be getting warmer and warmer. This has caused many complications for the elderly and infants such as hypothermia, heart disease, and heat exhaustion. This has led to a drastic change of death.

Increase in Death

This is a visual graph of the increasing rate of death since the rise of greenhouse gas.

Air Quality Affecting Health

Air Quality

Climate change has also caused poor air conditions. This has led to damage in many human systems such as the respiratory and cardiovascular system. There's also minor issues such as an increase in pollen causing worsening of allergies and asthma.

This is a visual representation of poor air quality that comes from climate change.

What We Can Do

Climate change may not be completely irreversible however collaboratively we could make a difference. Making changes such as:

  • Reducing use of car to lower CO2 use
  • Switch to renewable energy sources
  • Reduce water waste
  • Reduce food waste
  • Let others know about risks

What We Can Do

This is a group of young adults protesting for Climate Change.

What Scientists Are Doing

Chemical Reactions

Stop Deforestation-Forests remove carbon dioxide from the air and release oxygen into the atmosphere.

Net zero-Reach zero carbon emissions by the year 2050

Advancement in Technology-Machines pulls the carbon dioxide out of the air

These are all long lasting issues that the world will face without change.

Question & Answers

Q & A

Q: How does the Greenhouse Effect damage climate change?

A: Too much warmth from the Sun is being trapped in atmosphere.

Q: Why is climate change leading to malnutrition?

A: Climate change is causing less precipitation, increasing price of food. Making it more difficult for the disadvantaged to eat properly.

Q: Describe what people could do to help climate change?

A: People can use renewable energy and use less co2.
