“…These risks have been shown to be heightened among older adults in the United States, where exposure to extreme heat has been linked to amplified hospitalization and mortality rates. [33] Similarly, air pollution has been associated with various negative health outcomes among older adults, such as respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. [34] In developing countries, older adults face similar health risks worsened by climate change, but their vulnerability is often intensified due to inadequate healthcare infrastructure and limited access to healthcare services.…”

The climate of the Earth has changed throughout history. Climate change negatively impacts human rights in a wide range of ways. The study aims to find out the impact of climate change on aging health in developing countries. The study found that public health will be devastated if climate change continues unabated. Countries that are least responsible for global warming are most susceptible to the effects of higher temperatures, such as death and disease. In low‐ and middle‐income countries, disasters are more likely to happen to people aged 60 and over. Although climate change affects all of us, older people are especially at risk from it, as evidenced by a growing body of research. The study also offers countermeasures and suggestions to develop aging health in developing countries affected by climate change.
