How does climate change threaten our health?<\/b><\/h2>\n

It is becoming increasingly well-recognised that climate breakdown presents a major and potentially devastating threat to health, both globally and in the UK.\u00a0 As stated by the recent 2019 Lancet Countdown report (Watts et al., 2019), \u2018The life of every child born today will be profoundly affected by climate change. Without accelerated intervention, this new era will come to define the health of people at every stage of their lives\u2019<\/p>\n
