A tracking project that has been in place since nations vowed to act on climate in 2015 sees a measurable increase in exposure to disease and dangerous conditions. An international monitoring project established at the time of the Paris Agreement reported Wednesday that climate-related risks to health are worsening, with more people facing dangerous heat, food insecurity, exposure to pathogens and other threats.

The team of 122 researchers from United Nations agencies and academic institutions worldwide published their findings in The Lancet in advance of climate negotiations scheduled for next month in Azerbaijan. The findings were accompanied by an urgent plea from the authors for stronger action by governments to protect lives.
