CATCOS Workshop, June 2016. What is climate?. Climate is the average weather. The standard averaging time for climate is 30 years. “Weather is what you’re wearing, climate is what’s in your closet”. Key Message #1. 14. Ch. 14 | Human Health. The health and well-being of Americans are already affected by climate change, with the adverse health consequences projected to worsen with additional climate change. Climate change affects human health by altering exposures to heat waves, floods, droughts, and other extreme events; vector-, food- and waterborne infectious diseases; changes in the quality and safety of air, food, and water; and stresses to mental health and well-being..
