Climate change is a 'global health emergency,' new report says

When the Paris Agreement was adopted in 2015, then-President Barack Obama said, "This agreement represents the best chance we've had to save the one planet that we've got.”

But a decade later, a new report , led by University College London in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), finds that while progress has been made, many detrimental health indicators linked to climate change are moving in the wrong direction. The report's authors are also warning that problems aren't just increasing -- they're accelerating.
