Abstract

Climate change is a global issue affecting quality of life and economy around the globe. The health affected by climate change has a number of pathways, including extremes of weather, air pollution making children and elderly population the most vulnerable. Recent event of smog in different regions of Pakistan, floods for past few years and extreme heat has badly affected human health and economy of the region. There is dire need to strategies to develop climate change resilience in these regions. The connection between climate change and public health is undeniable. As the planet warms, so too does the urgency to act. By addressing the root causes of climate change and investing in adaptive measures, we can protect both the environment and human health. The time to act is now for our planet, our health, and future generations.
