An increase in extreme weather and climate conditions like heat and storms can impact human health, causing illness and potential loss of life.

Vulnerable communities such as the elderly, people with disability, those with poor health, and people experiencing poverty or socioeconomic disadvantage may be at greater risk.

Climate change will also affect the availability of resources that we rely on such as food and water.
