Climate change affects each and every human around the globe, with profound and potentially lasting implications for global health. This paper uses data and case studies to highlight the impacts of climate change on health and help companies across sectors understand the resulting consequences for business.

The report demonstrates why and how business can act, and it explores how to establish a deeper understanding of the nexus of health and climate throughout the company; articulate the risks and opportunities for companies across sectors; secure buy-in from senior leadership; and identify, assess, prevent, mitigate, and remedy the adverse impacts of climate change on health.

This report is part of a series of six climate nexus reports that cover human rights, inclusive economy, women’s empowerment, supply chain, just transition, and health. This series is aimed at business to drive resilience inside the company, across supply chains, and within vulnerable communities.
