What is Climate Change?

Climate change refers to significant, long-term changes in the global climate.

The global climate is the connected system of sun, earth and oceans, wind, rain and snow, forests, deserts and savannas, and everything people do, too. The climate of a place, say New York, can be described as its rainfall, changing temperatures during the year and so on.

But the global climate is more than the “average” of the climates of specific places.

The World Health Organization has a strong history of collaboration with a broad range of civil society groups working on climate change and health. Since 2011, when civil society groups working in the climate change space came together to establish the Global Climate and Health Alliance (GCHA), annual Global Climate and Health Summits have been organized, ensuring ongoing dialogue and mutual reinforcement of global efforts to address the health impacts and -opportunities of climate change.
