      abstract = {This book contains a set of papers which explore the links  among climate change, health, and hazards and demonstrate  how they interact. It emphasizes the urgency of immediate  and more ambitious action to address climate risks.  According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change  (IPCC), human-induced climate change is known to be causing  dangerous and widespread disruptions in nature and is  affecting the lives of billions of people around the world,  despite efforts to reduce the risks. Climate change is also  negatively influencing health and is mounting threat to our  wellbeing and a healthy planet. The world is also facing  significant climate hazards over the next two decades, with  global warming expected to soon reach 1.5°C. Even  temporarily exceeding this warming level will result in  additional severe impacts, some of which may be  irreversible. There is therefore a perceived need for  publications which may foster a greater understanding of  how climate change connects to human health and the role  played by hazards in this context. It is against this  background that this book is being prepared.},
