How does climate change worsen malnutrition?
Climate change makes malnutrition worse by disrupting food systems. Extreme weather events like droughts and floods, more frequent with climate change, destroy crops and livestock, reducing food availability. This can lead to higher food prices, making it harder for vulnerable populations to afford nutritious food, a key threat highlighted in The Lancet's assessment.
