| Warmer temperatures pose risks in terms of pollution and associated health problems. |
Pollution experts in North America are most concerned about the urban air pollution and smog caused by sunlight, traffic exhaust and polluted air from coal-fired plants.
Warmer temperatures also mean more wildfires and forest fires, which also affect the air quality, they warn.
Higher demand on air conditioning means more electricity use and more emissions as well.
Experts are also concerned about the risks posed by increased algae in lakes, which smells bad and affects water quality.
In terms of health effects, medical professionals are seeing the effects of pollution in their practices, including
- Cardio respiratory symptoms like chest pain
- Shortness of breath
- Lung conditions
- Heart conditions
- Diarrhea
- Blood, skin, kidney and other diseases caused by prolonged exposure to environmental pollutants
