Climate change is directly contributing to humanitarian emergencies from heatwaves, wildfires, floods, tropical storms and hurricanes and they are increasing in scale, frequency and intensity.Research shows that 3.6 billion people already live in areas highly susceptible to climate change. Between 2030 and 2050, climate change is expected to cause approximately 250 000 additional deaths...The direct damage costs to health (excluding costs in health-determining sectors such as agriculture and water and sanitation) is estimated to be between US$ 2–4 billion per year by 2030.Areas with weak health infrastructure – mostly in developing countries – will be the least able to cope without assistance to prepare and respond.Climate change presents a fundamental threat to human health.

Global heating of even 1.5°C is not considered safe, however; every additional tenth of a...
WHO’s response to these challenges centres around 3 main objectives: 1.
