Episode 16: Climate Change and Human Health: Impacts and Pathways to Resilience

Originally Aired February 19, 2016

Climate change will inevitably lead to negative impacts on human health. Certainty in predicting negative health outcomes is higher when changes are more directly related to the natural environment. Research is advancing our understanding of these complex systems and how they might be altered under different climatic conditions. Mitigation strategies can be applied now to improve both the current and future health of populations.
