Explore the urgent intersection of climate change and human health in this compelling episode where the latest science shows how rising global temperatures, extreme weather, and environmental disruption are accelerating the spread and severity of infectious diseases worldwide. The discussion highlights recent research revealing that over half of all known human diseases can be aggravated by climate change, with children and vulnerable populations facing the greatest risks.

This video was recorded on April 16th, 2025, and published on April 27th, 2025, and represents the opinions of the discussion participants.

The panel delves into the cascading health impacts of the climate crisis, from the global resurgence of malaria and the dangers of PM2.5 air pollution from wildfires, to the mental health toll on young people grappling with an uncertain future. They examine how higher nighttime temperatures, increased flooding, and ecosystem changes are fueling new outbreaks and making it harder for communities to stay healthy. The conversation also addresses the role of misinformation, vaccine hesitancy, and growing inequality in undermining public health resilience.

Closing with practical advice and a call to action, the episode urges viewers to support public health measures, advocate for climate solutions, and share their own experiences. Join the Climate Emergency Forum as they shine a light on the hidden health costs of climate change and empower viewers to be part of the solution.
