Abstract
This article focuses on finding solutions to Environmental Health Science with focus on impact of Climate Action on Health Policies and Practice. Climate change has emerged as one of the most pressing global challenges, profoundly affecting human health through its direct and indirect impacts on weather-related and environmental health diseases. This study aims to examine the relationship between climate change and the prevalence of weathered diseases such as heat-related illnesses, vector-borne diseases, and respiratory disorders, alongside environmental health diseases like waterborne diseases and exposure to hazardous pollutants, highlighting the vulnerability of vulnerable populations. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, the research will explore how rising global temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events exacerbate disease transmission and public health risks. The article will highlight the role of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being) and SDG 13 (Climate Action). In addressing these multiple health challenges. This article examines a study of Nigeria, which has a peculiarity with other vulnerable regions in sub-Saharan Africa will be examined. This research hopes to identify the pathways through which climate action can mitigate the health impacts of environmental degradation. The findings aim to underscore the urgency for integrated health and climate policies to safeguard populations from the growing threats posed by climate change. |
