This
is one in a series of Pew Center reports evaluating
the potential impacts of climate change on the
U.S. The finding in the report are than, in general,
the U.S. should have sufficient resources to limit
climate change impacts on human health, however,
because the linkages between climate and health
are so complex and incompletely defined, it is
difficult
to say with certainty, exactly how climate change
will impact human health. |
