Unformatted sample text from the term paper:
global warming is a serious threat, it is agreed that if global warming were a reality, it would affect many things such as agriculture and oceans and health. It would
probably prompt epidemics and this is something that is a concern to the people of the world. While there is currently a debate in relation to the threat of global
warming, it is something that has been taken seriously of late. It is difficult to predict the effect of global warming on health, but some studies concerning the effects of
El Nino suggest that there will be problems (Nelson, 2005). For example, after El Nino, cholera surfaced and this is something that had not been seen for some time (Nelson,
2005). El Nino also affected climatic conditions in certain American states that have seen an increase in deer and mice (Nelson, 2005). The mice were infected with Sin Nombre hantavirus
(Nelson, 2005). This has had some effect on the human population as well (Nelson, 2005). One can see, by using this example, that a climate change affects wildlife and can
have an unintended effect on human health. Nelson (2005) explains the ramifications of global warming: "Many climatologists and epidemiologists are concerned that global warming associated with an increase in
environmental pollution from greenhouse gases could lead to an expanded range of anopheline mosquitoes with epidemics of malaria in previously uninfected populations" (p.308). This is a frightening reality of the
prospects of global warming. Additionally, it appears that in warmer climates, disease is more likely to spread, particularly when such illnesses are dispersed by insects (Houghton, 1997). This is a
well-known phenomenon as the most deadly diseases are the ones found in warmer climates. That said, Houghton (1997) makes it clear that there is difficulty in assessing the impact of
