Rajat Jain reveals how climate change is fueling NCDs
Brian Mastroianni interviews Rajat Jain, manager of projects at DakshamA Health. He sheds light on how global climate change is fueling the increased presence of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) like mental health issues.
How will continued environmental degradation — radically shifting weather patterns, increased pollution, loss of natural habitats and wildlife, rising sea levels — play a role in the development of NCDs seen in young people that will effect them throughout the course of their lives, such as mental health, lung diseases, even chronic pain? What can we do to address this as we push to build healthier societies globally?
