SUNVILLA SAMACHAR Climate Change Has A Big Impact On The Healthcare System Of All Countries

I very vividly remember when 30 years back in the year 1992 we wanted to hold a publicfunction as a part of campaign for the promotion of healthy environment and preservation ofecology, not many people took it seriously. However we carried out with our activities andsoon our actions drew attention of the public as well as the administration. We organizedschool education programmes, formed Eco Clubs in schools and conducted several otheroutreach events.Society is more sensitized now. Environment has been an issue of serious debate amongthe scientists who have warned from time to time that if steps are not taken now and carbonemission is not reduced then we can land into serious climate crisis. Recently large numberof scientists organized climate protests globally. Peter Kalmus, who studies biologicalsystems and climate change at NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory and three others werearrested in Los Angeles after they chained themselves to the doors of a Chase Bank officebuilding. Kalmus said, "We've been trying to warn you guys for so many decades that we'reheading towards a fucking catastrophe, and we've been being ignored. The scientists of theworld are being ignored, and i got to stop. Were not joking. Were not lying. We;re notexaggerating”.These protests followed the release of report of the Intergovernmental Panel on ClimateChange (IPCC), ‘Mitigation of Climate Change’, on 4 April 2022. It concluded that the worldmust peak emissions of heat-trapping gases like carbon dioxide in less than three years tohave a chance of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above the preindustrialstandard. The report found that the worldgovernments and corporations are far frommeeting the emission-reduction goals that would help limit that extreme weather. We arealready witnessing wildfires, hurricanes, droughts, and floods across the planet.António Guterres, the UN secretary general, was very forthright in a press briefing when hesaid "Climate activists are sometimes depicted as dangerous radicals, but the trulydangerous radicals are the countries that are increasing the production of fossil fuels,".To highlight the issue World Environment Day is observed every year on 5th June. Thesufferings caused due to COVID-19 Pandemic have made us to think that the issue ofenvironmental degradation and climate change cannot be just a ritual discussion but it has tobe taken very seriously.Climate Change is a significant change in temperature, wind patterns and precipitation thatmay occur in cycles over decades, hundreds, thousands and millions of years; however inthe recent years we are witnessing the impact of climate change occurring much faster andin much shorter period.In the last century scientists detected that the temperature of earth was rising abnormally. Itwas found that oceans were warming up and snow was melting leading to rise in level of oceans. It was also found that there was perceptible rise in the carbon dioxide in theatmosphere. Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) resulting from mainly industrial development and urbanization,agriculture and changes in landuse patterns are the cause of global warming. Differentgases have different Global Warming Potential (GWP) which means how much damage theycause to the environment. The Carbon Dioxide (CO2) has GWP of 1; Methane - GWP of 21and Nitrous oxide - GWP of 310.The effects of climate change have been felt in India as well. There was all India drought in2002 and 2009. The year 2010 was one of warmest years. In the year 2013 there wereExtreme rainfall events in Uttarakhand. Then there were floods in the Kashmir valley in2014. We have seen mountains becoming baron due to large scale cutting of trees. This isresulting in hills becoming weak. Tsunami, Amfanand Nisarga all occurred due to climatechange.Climate and weather have always had a powerful impact on human health and well-being. Global climate change is a newer challenge to the ongoing efforts to protect human health.In the past few years there has been increase in Mosquitoes breeding, Malaria, Dengue andYellow Fever. Increase in temperature - Kapilkumar M. Hirpara by 2-3º C would increase.
