A Study on the Knowledge, Awareness, Perceptions and Behaviour (KAPB) of Students of the University of the West Indies, St. Augustine (UWI-STA) Towards Climate Change and its Impact on Human Health

Climate change (CC) is defined as long-term weather changes in the Earth's climate. CC has been linked to increased global temperatures. This affects human health both directly and indirectly: Directly, via increased risk of cardiovascular, respiratory, and vector-borne diseases. Indirectly, via reduced agricultural crop yields and accessibility to healthcare due to extreme weather events. Studies show that spreading awareness on the health impacts of CC encourages motivation towards mitigation (1). Early awareness of climate change and its health impacts is necessary for future generations to mitigate its effects.
