This book provides an overview of the correlation between climate change and public health, closely aligned with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals 3 (SDG-3). It not only discusses the impacts of climate change on health but also explores how the health sector influences climate change, creating intersections between health, climate policies, and geopolitics from both global and Indian perspectives. Additionally, it covers topics such as air pollution, heat health, climate finance, and water security. From geopolitical implications to physiological impacts, it addresses the challenges posed by climate change on healthcare systems worldwide. The book is supplemented with methodologies for understanding the relationship between climate change and health, as well as designing policies to address climate and health governance.
The book is relevant for academics, policymakers, geopoliticians, climate activists, and practitioners alike, providing insights into governance, air pollution, coastal ecosystems, and cultural heritage in shaping an understanding of a sustainable future.
