Climate Change and Health

The consequences of climate change are felt all over the world, and are expected to be even more intense in the coming decades. Adaptation to climate change implies undertaking a certain set of activities with the aim of reducing the vulnerability of natural and social systems to climate change, increasing their ability to recover from the effects of climate change, but also exploiting potential positive effects that may also be a consequence of climate change. The cost of investing in adaptation today will reduce the cost of negative consequences in the future. Therefore, it is of priority importance to initiate the social process of accepting the concept of adaptation to climate change and to strategically approach the process of adaptation to climate change.
