  • Title: Climate change and child health.
    Author: Seal A, Vasudevan C.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 2011 Dec; 96(12):1162-6. PubMed ID: 21335625.
    Abstract:
    Postindustrial human activity has contributed to rising atmospheric levels of greenhouse gases causing global warming and climate change. The adverse effects of climate change affect children disproportionately, especially in the developing world. Urgent action is necessary to mitigate the causes and adapt to the negative effects of climate change. Paediatricians have an important role in managing the effects of climate change on children and promoting sustainable development.
