Sommario/riassunto |
|
The global climate crisis is one of the most defining challenges of our time, with profound implications not just for the environment, but also for human health. While the impacts of climate change are felt worldwide, they are disproportionately severe in developing countries, where populations are more vulnerable due to economic, social, and infrastructural limitations. This book, Climate Change and Health: Perspectives from Developing Countries, seeks to bring attention to the unique challenges faced by these nations, while also highlighting their innovative solutions and resilience in the face of an increasingly unstable climate. This book brings together a wide range of perspectives from researchers, healthcare professionals, and |

community leaders from across the developing world. It explores the diverse ways in which climate change is affecting health, drawing on case studies, especially from Africa, Developing regions face different challenges, from rising sea levels to food insecurity, but they also share common experiences of vulnerability and resilience. |
