Abstract: Climate change is a global phenomenon with far-reaching implications for human well-being. This article provides a thorough examination of the multifaceted impacts of climate change on the quality of life. Through a review of current literature and empirical studies, we explore how climate change disrupts ecosystems, alters weather patterns, and threatens the livelihoods of individuals and communities worldwide. The article delves into the diverse effects of rising temperatures, extreme weather events, sea-level rise, and changes in precipitation patterns on various aspects of quality of life, including physical and mental health, housing security, food security, and economic stability.
Furthermore, the article highlights the disproportionate impact of climate change on vulnerable populations, such as low-income households, marginalized communities, and regions already facing environmental and social challenges. These groups are often hit hardest by the adverse effects of climate change, exacerbating existing inequalities and intensifying social disparities. By synthesizing evidence from different disciplines, this article underscores the urgency of implementing comprehensive mitigation and adaptation strategies to address the complex interplay between climate change and quality of life.
Keywords: Climate change, quality of life, impact, adaptation, mitigation, vulnerable populations.
