Climate Change and Health Series: Migration of Populations with Implications for Health

Migration is increasing locally and globally due to climate change. On our warming planet, the inability to farm, flood-related sea level rise, hurricanes, and wildfires are among the many reasons for the increase in migration of populations. This presentation will offer an overview of climate migration patterns and address implications for people’s health, locally and worldwide.
