Abstract

Health is wealth and a healthy nation is a wealthy nation is an old English adage. Health impacts of climate change in the 21st century are undisputable as it is felt globally and in diverse forms. Climate affects health directly and indirectly as well as the entire ecosystem – the lithosphere hydrology and the biosphere. Climate change is caused by both natural occurrence and anthropogenic effects. The consequences of climate change, directly or indirectly, natural or anthropogenic has a negative impact on human and animal, and green vegetation. This in one way or the other contributes to health challenge on man as result of unhealthy climate. Man is subject to climate via weather and other meteorological influences that control the atmosphere. The shortage of safe quality drinking water, poor agricultural crop, food security challenge, inability of persons or households to have access to sufficient, safe – sound and nutritious dietary demand gives rise to health implications and the consequences of these is a manifestation of climate change scenario. Therefore, we x – rayed these attendant consequences of the climate change effects on human health, agriculture and food security, and providing the solution as a getaway to these challenges
