RESUMEN
El Cambio Climático (CC) está afectando la salud humana y los sistemas naturales. En los últimos 50 años, las actividades del hombre, particularmente la quema de combustibles fósiles, han liberado importante cantidad de gases de efecto invernadero (GEI) los que atrapan el calor adicional en la atmósfera calentando el planeta. La temperatura y el nivel del mar aumentan, los glaciares se derriten y los patrones de las precipitaciones están cambiando. Los eventos climáticos extremos son más intensos y frecuentes. Es importante conocer el impacto del CC en la salud y en los ecosistemas porque es posible manejar sus efectos a través de medidas de adaptación y mitigación (AU)
ABSTRACT
Climate change (CC) is affecting human health and natural systems. Over the past 50 years, activities of mankind, mainly the burning of fossil fuels, has released important amounts of greenhouse gases (GHG) that trap additional heat in the atmosphere heating the planet. The sea temperature and level rise, glaciers melt, and patterns of precipitations have changed. Extreme climatic events have become more intense and frequent. It is important to recognize the impact of CC on health and ecosystems as it is possible late its effects through measures of adaptation and mitigation (AU)
