Global Warming and Solutions to the Problem

Global Warming and Solutions to the Problem Global Warming Nov 15, 2018 in Coursework Global Warming as a Irrecoverable Problem Changing climatic trends usually have effects on the health of all living beings, and many health organizations have emphasized the importance of finding solutions to the problem. The extent of the climate change is a worrying trend, and the society is becoming more concerned with the situation. The purpose of this paper is to outline the health concerns of climate change, compare the situation in some countries, and recommend strategies that nurses could use to promote health. Health Concerns Related to Global Climate Change Climate change has been caused by the rise of many industries that engage in manufacturing activities, with emitting their waste to the environment. The wastes pollute important resources, such as water bodies and air, which in turn leads to the interruption of the normal environmental cycles such as rain formation (Levine What Works Working Group, 2007). With changes in the climate patterns, global warming suffices to lead to the occurrences of floods and hurricanes. The general effect of the change in climatic conditions is the variation of the normal weather patterns (Afzal, 2007). For example, heat waves could cause conditions such as dehydration and heat stroke, which are the leading causes of deaths due to adverse weather conditions.
