Global Warming : its Impact on Children

Global Warming : its Impact on Children ;

According to the latest reports, the effects of global warming can be affected directly, especially in children and there are some steps that can be taken to protect health when the temperature increased.

American Academy of Pediatric (AAP) recognizes the result of global warming on the health of children and develop strategies to protect them from potential damage. Despite the increasing risk of heat-related conditions such as heat stroke and dehydration, the researchers said global warming aggravate common diseases that occur in children such as asthma and allergy. In addition, children also have a risk of loss of parents or carers in relation to extreme weather conditions.

Global Warming Harm the Children

Based on several reports of the group, some examples of global warming due to the child's health are:

• Increased vulnerability to injury or death, post-trauma stress, loss of carers, with the shift in education and as a result of the disasters caused by weather such as floods, hurricanes and droughts.
• Damage to the lung function and growth in terms of increased air pollution.
• The increase of waterborne diseases and food-borne, include diarrhea infection due to increasing temperature interference in food supply.
• Improvement in the transmission of disease through mosquitoes and lice / mite, such as West Nile virus, malaria and the disease "Lyme".
• Increasing the absorption and easily affected by heat because of injury, associated with conditions such as the attacks heat (heat stroke) and exhaustion due to heat (heat exhaustion).

The researchers said that the health of children is the most sensitive to all environmental hazards.

Several groups encourage for the experts of children specialist to give example on minimize the effect of greenhouse and gas emissions. Realted to global warming with made some chances like the use of fluorescent light, reducing the use of regulator heat in winter, and reduce the use of motor vehicles
