Climate change is making human health at high stake. There are several ways by which climate causes illnesses. Air pollution is a big concern when it comes to human health since we breath in air. Warmer temperatures accelerates concentration of air pollutants. Ground-level ozone smog is very dangerous when breathed since it has irritation effects and damages our breathing system (lungs, bronchi, alveoli, tracheae).
Pollens affected by climate change can cause allergic and hypersensitive reactions to people including asthma attack.
Another way climate causes health impacts is insects and illness they cause for example, zika virus caused by mosquitoes, dengue fever, west Nile virus and lime diseases that are caused by certain ticks.

Climate change through increase in the global atmospheric, oceanic and surface temperatures enhances conducive environment for human health disease causing agents hence hindering achieving human health
