Investing In Climate Health Could Generate High Returns, Study Finds

A new analysis says climate-health investments could yield major economic returns in low- and middle-income countries.

Spending on early warning systems, disease surveillance, and preparedness may return up to $68 for every $1 invested.

The report says stronger health systems could reduce illness, deaths, and long-term costs as climate risks rise.

It highlights climate-health spending as a relatively modest way to protect vulnerable countries from worsening weather and disease threats.
