New Delhi, October 14, 2018 :

Six ways how climate change will affect your health (CNN)” A new report from the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change warns of dire consequences if governments don’t make “rapid, far-reaching, and unprecedented changes in all aspects of society” to stem global warming. But the planet isn’t the only thing at risk as temperatures rise; your health might be in danger, too. Here are six ways that climate change might affect you:

1. An increase in disease-carrying mosquitoes and ticks
2. Contaminated water sources and dangerous bacterial infections
3. An increase in mental health issues
4. An increase in type 2 diabetes
5. Respiratory problems and stroke
6. More car crashes and fewer food inspections
