Climate change driving preterm births across Asia
Original: Climate change is already driving preterm births in Asia – and the toll isset to rise
New analysis warns that climate change is already contributing to preterm births in Asia, with the number of affected babies expected to grow as temperatures rise. The findings highlight heat exposure during pregnancy as a growing health risk in the region, prompting calls for stronger adaptation measures and greater attention to the health impacts of global warming beyond extreme weather.
Why now: New research linking climate change to rising preterm births in Asia is drawing attention to an under-reported health consequence of global warming.
