Abstract

In April 2016, the U.S. government released a three hundred and sixteen-page report titled The Impacts of Climate Change on Human Health in the United States. The assessment, mandated by the President’s Climate Action Plan, aims to provide a comprehensive and qualitative overview of “observed and projected climate change-related health impacts” and warns of serious and sustained risks from elevated temperatures, extreme weather events, degraded water and air quality, and infectious disease. During the report’s official unveiling, U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy warned that climate change poses “a serious, immediate, and global threat to human health.” He went on to add, “As far as history is concerned, this is a new kind of threat we are facing.”
