Research: The climate crisis has begun to have serious consequences for human health.

White eyes are unreasonable and stubborn, and there are many accidents. Deep Space Bian Xiao, which has never changed its mind, has a new statement. Bian Xiao sorted it out for a long time and brought this article to everyone. Get the melon seeds bench ready and let's go and have a look.

According to foreign media reports, in a new assessment of the impact of climate change on human health, a global cooperation involving more than 65,438+000 scientific experts draws a terrible picture: the climate crisis is making us sick. If we can't limit the emission of greenhouse gases, then we will face extreme changes that threaten food security, be more susceptible to infectious diseases, be forced to reduce working hours, and face more extreme weather events, such as wildfires and droughts.

It is reported that this new report was published in the famous medical journal The Lancet on June 5438+065438+ 10/4, and elaborated in detail the health risks brought by the rapidly warming earth. The report was written by 120 climatologists, health experts and other groups.

The report points out that if we don't carry out drastic reforms immediately, we will embark on a dangerous road. Among them, children and children from low-and middle-income families will be one of the most seriously affected people.

"Children are particularly vulnerable to the health risks posed by climate change," Dr Nick Watts, executive director of Countdown The Lancet, said in a press release. "Their bodies and immune systems are still developing, which makes them more vulnerable to diseases and environmental pollution."

Think about the children born today, 201911014. According to the present situation, by his 7 1 birthday, he will experience an average life of 4 degrees Celsius higher than that before industrialization. According to this report, the rising temperature will affect children's health in many ways. By studying the impact of climate change on health in 20 18 years, the researchers' union proved that:

The number of heat waves is increasing: in 20 18, there were 220 million heat waves in the world, a record high;

Increasing heat will reduce productivity. The situation of 20 18 is better than that of 20 17, but the rising temperature still leads to the potential working time loss of13.36 million hours;

From 20 15 to 20 18, the number of people exposed to wildfires exceeded 200 1 year to 2004. In Africa, more people are exposed to floods and storms, but the mortality rate has not changed;

20 18 is a "bumper year" for infectious diseases, and this year is the second high-incidence year for cholera transmission, malaria and dengue fever;

Rising temperature is reducing the yield potential of major food crops such as corn, wheat, rice and soybean in the world;

Rising sea surface temperature threatens the number of marine fish and food safety;

With the rising carbon dioxide emissions, air pollution is becoming more and more serious. In 20 16 years, 7 million people may die from air pollution.

According to the current way, children born today will face unprecedented health challenges. Scientists are aware of these dangers and call on the government to take action. Last week, more than 1 1000 scientists from different disciplines issued a serious warning and declared a "climate emergency".

The The Lancet report also pointed out that children most affected by global warming are being reunited. In recent months, under the impetus of Greta Thunberg, a climate activist aged 16, a large number of school strikes and climate change rallies broke out all over the world.

Fiona Armstron, founder of the Climate and Health Alliance, said: "Young people have reason to be angry and worried about the future-science is terrible. But we still have a chance. "
