LWEC report card - health impacts of climate change

Climate change is likely to have a wide range of impacts on health - some harmful, others potentially beneficial. Living With Environmental Change (LWEC), a network of organisations that summarises scientific evidence to understand the impacts of climate change, have just published their latest report on the potential impacts of climate change on human health.

LWEC is a network of 20 UK public-sector organisations that fund, carry out and use environmental research. This LWEC report card summarises the latest scientific evidence and understanding of how climate change may affect the health of the UK population. It has been designed to make it easier to understand the nature of the possible changes and to help inform decisions that will protect our wellbeing.
