A new study, published today in Nature Climate Change, will certainly make the IPCC—and other environmental bodies—take notice.

According to a new report released by the InterAcademy Partnership (IAP), climate change is threatening the health of billions of people worldwide through a range of both direct and indirect pathways, including heat-related mortality and morbidity, extreme weather events such as droughts or floods, decreases in crop yields, changes in the distribution of vector-borne diseases, and wildfires causing widespread exposure to air pollution.

The consensus among scientists is that we are in an era of global heating and extreme weather events, primarily due to the devastating effects of human action on the environment. Why are researchers concerned, and what are the implications for health?

Each month, Abt experts from two disciplines explore ideas for tackling these challenges in our monthly podcast, The Intersect.

A popular idea to soften the blow of global warming might also make the world’s malaria problem even worse.

Record floods linked to climate change have left the people of South Sudan in crisis.

n response to a new report on climate change from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), United Nations Secretary General António Guterres said Monday that its findings are proof that the world is on the "fast track" to a climate disaster.

For the first time, the report includes a chapter devoted to the social aspects of climate mitigation

Malaria No More, in partnership with the Crown Prince Court of Abu Dhabi (CPC) and the Reaching the Last Mile program announced the launch of a new global institute with the mission to combat malaria in the face of climate change and weather volatility.

Much of South Sudan is under water from flooding induced by climate change and deforestation. Crops and livestock are lost, hunger and malaria are spreading. With so many worries, coronavirus vaccines are a tough sell.
