Climate change is putting health on the line, with extreme heat driving rising illness and death worldwide — from a 370% increase in heat-related deaths in India to dangerous conditions in Senegal that threaten people’s well-being and ability to work safely.

The solutions work, but to protect everyone, we need more voices, better data, stronger coordination, and sustainable funding.
