Climate change presents a fundamental threat to human health. It affects the physical environment as well as all aspects of both natural and human systems – including social and economic conditions and the functioning of health systems. 

The authors David Arieti and Jacob O. Nieva, M.D., wrote the book “Prognosis: Disaster: How Climate Change and Disease Will Ruin Your Life UNLESS (Second Edition)” to emphasize the ignorance and highlight the negligence of the human race when it comes to environmental and political concerns that have life-and-death implications.

“Prognosis: Disaster: How Climate Change and Disease Will Ruin Your Life UNLESS (Second Edition)” is a book about human-induced environmental change and disease. Climate change, global warming, and deforestation threaten human, animal, and plant populations with diseases more virulent than previously known. It will be a useful reference in disease and environmental science and a call to action.

This book tackles the consequences of humankind’s path toward extinction and suggests solutions that involve terminating the use of fossil fuels, controlling overpopulation, investing in solar power, and discovering a more effective economic system.
