Climate change and health experts are warning that the world cannot simply adapt its way out of the escalating climate crisis, as global temperatures continue to rise.

Speaking at a State of Climate Update press conference in Türkiye yesterday, Wellcome Trust’s Director of Climate and Health, Alan Dangour, cautioned that the impacts of worsening global warming could become too severe to manage.

He noted that vulnerable countries are likely to bear the greatest burden.
