Impact of Social and Political

Impact of Social and Political
Changes in weather and ocean can lead to the emergence of diseases associated with heat (heat stroke) and death. Hot temperatures can also cause crop failures that will appear hunger and malnutrition. Changes in extreme weather and increased sea levels due to melting Arctic ice could lead to diseases associated with natural disasters (floods, hurricanes and fires) and deaths due to trauma. The emergence of natural disasters is usually accompanied by the displacement of people into refugee camps places where the disease often occur, such as: diarrhea, malnutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, psychological trauma, skin diseases, and others.

Shift in the ecosystem can impact on the spread of diseases through water (Waterborne diseases) and the spread of diseases through vectors (vector-borne diseases). Such as increased incidence of Dengue Fever since the emergence of the (ecosystem) of this new breed mosquitoes. With this adamya climate change there is a species of disease vectors (Aedes Agipty eq), viruses, bacteria, plasmodium become more resistant to certain drugs that target these organisms adala it. Also predictable that there are some species that are naturally selected perbuhan or extinct due to this extreme ecosystem. this will also affect climate change (Climat change) the bus to the increase in cases affecting certain diseases such as ARI (drought / forest fires, DHF association with erratic rainy season)

Gradient Environmental pollution caused by waste in the river also contributes to waterborne diseases and vector-borne disease. Coupled with air pollution emissions of gases that are not controlled factory will further contribute to disease, respiratory diseases like asthma, allergies, coccidiodomycosis, heart disease and chronic lung, and others.
