As we all know, greenhouse gas emissions generated by human activity will change Earth’s climate. The recent globally averaged warming by 0.5ºC is partly attributable to such anthropogenic emissions. Unfortunately, climate change may impact adverse affects on human health through a range of pathways[r]
