Climate change has negative repercussions on animal welfare. The "Stress Lab" research study finds that apart from adversely affecting lactation performance, immune function & calf health, heat stress leads to a 35% reduction in milk production in cows.

Rising sea levels and increased saltwater intrusion will impact our transport infrastructure by damaging our bridges, railway lines, and roadways. Climate-proofing our infrastructure by using heat resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, building raised bridge decks, elevating transit stations, putting in place nature-based protection like mangroves and wetlands, to name a few, is crucial.

The rapid reduction of global coal emissions is crucial to addressing the #ClimateCrisis. Failure to achieve this reduction would make it exceedingly difficult to prevent severe consequences resulting from #ClimateChange. #SayNoToCoal #ActNow 

As per a study by Life course and Aging, the probability of severe vision impairment increased with an increase in temperatures. This was more pronounced among individuals aged 65-79 compared to those aged 80 & above, & the trend was more notable among men than women.#ClimateChange

Since 1880, #climatechange has caused the average global temperature to climb by 1.1 degrees Celsius (source: NASA). This means the number of really hot days and heat waves has increased with a variety of severe implications. To adapt public transport to climate change, walks to transit stations and waits at transit stations must be minimised. This involves re-structuring last mile connectivity options and designing transit stations to endure high temperatures, using heat-resistant materials, and adequate ventilation.
