Lifesaving measures to address climate-change-related health problems are some of the most well-documented and effective measures we have in fighting the overall negative effects of climate change. The Adaptation Performance Review of the Climate Vulnerability Monitor 2010 assesses over 50 key measures that can be taken to reduce dangers and harm to communities and the planet. In this podcast highlighting the Adaptation Performance Review, we examine adaptations specifically targeting health issues that will arise as the effects of climate change become more pronounced. Tune into DARA’s latest podcast on health adaptations to climate change based on the findings of the 2010 Climate Vulnerability Monitor.
