Brody, Jane E. (2021, February 1). How Climate Change May Affect Your Health. Retrieved August 15, 2021, from https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/01/well/eat/climate-change-health.html. 

Many people only see how the consequences of climate change impact others and their own environment, when it can endanger everyone’s health. As the planet is warming, heat waves, droughts, wildfires, warmer oceans, and much more are increasing the risk of sicknesses. Strong links have been found between high air pollution and dementia. Other illnesses, such as asthma and respiratory allergies, are also threatening. Warm weather also raises infectious diseases carried by vectors like ticks and mosquitoes. Global warming endangers the safety of food with food poisoning and contamination, which opens up an even bigger variety of diseases to humans.

The article explains the threat climate change poses on the environment and how this shift in the environment affects our own health through diseases and sicknesses. I think this article could benefit our world and our own health greatly by informing people of the changes they can make to help. I feel pressured to change my light bulbs to solar panels as they rely on non polluting renewable energy and drive less. If everyone made these simple changes, our climate change would decrease and health would improve.
