摘要

气候变化正在以多种方式对人类生活的许多方面产生影响。在加纳，人们对气候变化的了解仍然很少，将气候变化与健康联系起来的讨论也很少。在本文中，作者以气候变化如何增加某些疾病为重点，为形成有关气候与健康的讨论做出了贡献。首先，本文论述了在加纳社区开展研究，将气候变化与健康联系起来的必要性。其次，本文建议制定政策来解决这种联系。第三，本文建议公共卫生教育工作者对公众进行教育。

Climate Change and Health: Perspectives From Ghana

Climate change is impacting many aspects of human life in many ways. In Ghana, climate change knowledge remains low and discussions linking climate change and health are scarce. In this paper, authors contribute to the shaping of discussions about climate and health with a focus on how climate change increases certain ailments. First, the paper addresses the need for research in Ghanaian communities to link climate change and health. Second, the paper suggests the development of policies to address the link. Third, public health educators are advised in this paper to educate the public.

期刊介绍： GeoHealth will publish original research, reviews, policy discussions, and commentaries that cover the growing science on the interface among the Earth, atmospheric, oceans and environmental sciences, ecology, and the agricultural and health sciences. The journal will cover a wide variety of global and local issues including the impacts of climate change on human, agricultural, and ecosystem health, air and water pollution, environmental persistence of herbicides and pesticides, radiation and health, geomedicine, and the health effects of disasters. Many of these topics and others are of critical importance in the developing world and all require bringing together leading research across multiple disciplines.
