Pathways by Which Climate Change May Affect Human Health IPCC 2007

Health Impacts Depend on Multiple Factors Geographic factors: Baseline climate Abundance of natural resources (i.e. soil, fresh water supplies) Elevation Biological sensitivity: Developmental stage Pre-existing medical conditions and/or acquired factors (i.e. immunity) Genetic factors Socioeconomic factors: May increase likelihood of exposure to harmful agents/high risk residences Associated with underlying diseases that mediate risk Affect ability to adapt or respond
