Often far fewer physicians around. A lack of doctors also has an impact on Health Education from disease prevention to Family Planning. In kenya, for example. Women there have 4 children on average. But in rural areas, its not uncommon for a woman to have 10 or more. And getting medical care to them can be a challenge. The sun is rising as these camelkeeprs prepare for the next 4 weeks of hard work. Theyre loading tents, food and medical supplies onto the backs of their fifteen animals. This one here, this one doesnt feel like carrying a heavy load. Its its first time, its still training. It will get the hang of it in the next few days. The animals might be halfhearted about the upcoming trip, but the other members of this mobile camel clinic are looking forward to it. Godwin ruto is a doctor and pauline kopiki is a nurse. Theyve given up their holiday to do this. It makes a difference because these are people who do not even have any education. They cant access Family Planning. People
As a result, that, too, speeds up Global Warming in the oceans, as well. With a rise in water temperatures comes a rise in sea levels. The results are especially dangerous for lowlying coastal regions, where much of the worlds population lives. Fastgrowing megacities are at risk. The regions subsistence farmers are struggling to survive. More than a third of the earths land surface is desert and many deserts continue to grow. Ever more forests are being cleared. Every three seconds, 100 trees lost. That is the rate at which deforestation has been going on in the amazon for the past 40 years. Yes, thats right 100 trees felled or burned every three seconds. Like here, in the brazilian state of rondonia. Rain forest is cleared to make way for soy fields, cattle farms, dams, and reservoirs. The destruction of rainforests means even more co2 is released into the atmosphere and the earth gets ever warmer. Host Human Factors in Climate Change were the focus of the first u. N. Earth summit in

Recent hurricanes harvey, irma and maria killed over 200 people in the u. S. And the caribbean, and they caused nearly 1 trillion worth of damage. Donald trump, an outspoken Climate Change skeptic, visited the disaster area, and he continues to rule out that human activity could have caused the catastrophe. But now theres a field of science which, for the first time, is able to estimate whether a Natural Disaster was a young german physicist at Britains Oxford University is studying hurricane harvey. Similar studies on the floods in louisiana last year produced clear results. Friederike during those studies we discovered that Climate Change had, on average, doubled the probability of this torrential rain occurring. So it would be surprising if we got a totally different result in a neighboring state at the same time of year just 12 months later. Reporter so far the discussion about Natural Disasters and their possible link to Climate Change has been largely a political one. Its a highs
