Özet:

Climate change has been a major problem that has affected the whole world for almost half a century. During this process, a series of changes in the characteristics of the climate system have begun to be seen, such as increases and decreases in temperature, changes in rainfall, increases in severe weather events. These changes in the natural balance of the world have a physiological and psychological impact on human health. Climate change, air pollution, increased infectious diseases, lack of clean water and food supply and vector-related diseases affect human life in many dimensions. The effects of climate change on health vary depending on the size of the change and the general health status of the individual. But some groups are more sensitive to the effects of climate change on health for reasons such as age (child-age) and gender (women, especially pregnant women). It is believed that women, which make up half of the world’s population, are a sensitive group to the effects of climate change. This collection was written to draw attention to the effects of climate change on women’s reproductive health.
