COP27 Climate Change Conference: urgent action needed for Africa and the world

Abstract

Les pays riches doivent renforcer leur soutien à l'Afrique et aux pays vulnérables pour faire face aux impacts passés, présents et futurs du changement climatique. Le rapport 2022 du Groupe d'experts intergouvernemental sur l'évolution du climat brosse un tableau sombre de l'avenir de la vie sur terre, caractérisé par l'effondrement des écosystèmes, l'extinction des espèces et les risques climatiques tels que les vagues de chaleur et les inondations1. Ceux-ci sont tous liés à des problèmes de santé physique et mentale, avec des conséquences directes et indirectes de l'augmentation de la morbidité et de la mortalité.

Las naciones ricas deben intensificar el apoyo a África y a los países vulnerables para abordar los impactos pasados, presentes y futuros del cambio climático. El informe de 2022 del Grupo Intergubernamental de Expertos sobre el Cambio Climático pinta un panorama oscuro del futuro de la vida en la tierra, caracterizado por el colapso de los ecosistemas, la extinción de especies y los peligros climáticos como las olas de calor y las inundaciones.1 Todos ellos están relacionados con problemas de salud física y mental, con consecuencias directas e indirectas del aumento de la morbilidad y la mortalidad.

Wealthy nations must step up support for Africa and vulnerable countries in addressing past, present, and future impacts of climate change. The 2022 report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change paints a dark picture of the future of life on earth, characterised by ecosystem collapse, species extinction, and climate hazards such as heatwaves and floods.1 These are all linked to physical and mental health problems, with direct and indirect consequences of increased morbidity and mortality.

يجب على الدول الغنية زيادة دعمها لأفريقيا والبلدان الضعيفة في معالجة آثار تغير المناخ في الماضي والحاضر والمستقبل. يرسم تقرير الهيئة الحكومية الدولية المعنية بتغير المناخ لعام 2022 صورة قاتمة لمستقبل الحياة على الأرض، والتي تتميز بانهيار النظام البيئي، وانقراض الأنواع، والمخاطر المناخية مثل موجات الحر والفيضانات. 1 ترتبط جميعها بمشاكل الصحة البدنية والعقلية، مع عواقب مباشرة وغير مباشرة لزيادة المراضة والوفيات.
