As climate-driven deaths rise, a report finds only 23 percent of countries use climate data to inform their public health strategies.[1]

The World Meteorological Organization, or WMO, published a report last week that shows just 11 percent of countries have the full arsenal of tools required to save lives as the impacts of climate change — including deadly weather events, infectious diseases, and respiratory illnesses like asthma — become more extreme.[2]
