Climate Change Poses Growing Health Risks for Children

Climate change is increasingly affecting children’s health, with immediate consequences becoming evident. From compromised immune systems to altered development of brains and lungs, the health impacts are compounded by overlapping climate-related hazards.

Rising temperatures, air pollution, and extreme weather events are among the factors contributing to these health challenges. Children, particularly vulnerable due to their developing bodies and higher exposure to environmental risks, face heightened risks from these climate impacts.

Addressing these health risks requires urgent action to mitigate climate change and adapt to its effects. Protecting children’s health necessitates comprehensive strategies that prioritize clean air, resilient communities, and sustainable practices to safeguard their well-being amidst a changing climate.
