Climate Change and Nutrition

Diabetes and Climate Change Report

Two urgent challenges in the 21st century are the global diabetes epidemic and climate change. Both are rapidly accelerating, are fueled by changes in the way we live and work, and will have intergenerational effects on health, wellbeing and security. The Diabetes and Climate Change Report aims to outline the interconnections between climate change and diabetes; establish the co-benefits of combating two global risks in an integrated policy agenda; and inform the global discussion on health and sustainable development.
