Parasite, Bacteria and Virus Population Increase
Temperature, precipitation, humidity, and other climatic factors affect the reproduction, development, behavior, and population dynamics of viruses, bacteria, and parasites. Insect vectors have several physical traits that help them take advantage of climate impacts like flooding, increased precipitation, and warmer weather.

Earth Systems Signals
Global warming is causing widespread and rapid changes in the atmosphere, ocean, cryosphere and biosphere.
Heat Signals
The Earth is getting hotter due to human activities that release heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere.
Drought Signals
Climate change is making droughts more likely to occur, and more severe when they do.
Wildfires Signals
Climate change is increasing the size, frequency, intensity and seasonality of wildfires.
Hurricanes Signals
Warmer temperatures increase the rate of water evaporation, which feeds moisture and energy into storms.
Floods Signals
Worsening floods due to climate change are putting a growing number of communities at risk.
