Experts warn of serious health impacts from climate change.

A collection of papers published in the Journal of Global Health highlights the serious health impacts that climate change is having on vulnerable populations such as pregnant women, newborns, children, adolescents, and older people. The papers emphasize that the specific needs of these groups have been largely neglected in climate change response efforts. The research shows that climate-related health risks, including heatwaves, air pollution, and natural disasters, have been underestimated for these populations, with potentially life-threatening implications. The authors call for urgent action to address these health impacts and ensure the continuity of health services for those most at risk. [Extracted from the article]
