Climate Change
Climate change is a major concern that has been
occurring for more than a decade and has been effecting weather patterns all
over the world. The increase in temperature and decrease in rainfall is a major
concern, as well as natural disasters such as heat waves, droughts, floods, and tropical
cyclones that are happening more often. The reason why
this is such a demanding problem is because these changes directly correlate
with human health and could put all of lives at risk if there is not changes
made. According to the World
Health Organization
,
about 1.2 million people worldwide die each year due to health problems caused
by breathing bad air from air pollution. About 3.5 million people worldwide die because they do
not get enough food to eat, and 2.2 million people get severe diarrhea because
they do not have a clean water supply and proper sanitation. Human
behavior is responsible for climate change and therefore we need to be the ones
taking action to reverse our effects.

The climate change section of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
allows people to have access to factual statics about
the environment and the results of our actions. It provides links to
other pages that inform readers how to track climate change dealing with heat
waves. The website also has a communication tools page that provides materials
and social media tools to keep people up to date on climate change and methods
to share that information. The website also provides fact sheets and brochures
that can be used for your own use or for distribution. Because the CDC gives
readers access to materials, it allows people to share valuable information
with more ease, and from a trusted publication.
