Research conducted by specialists from the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in Manhattan, New York, has revealed that climate change could lead to the emergence of more problems with asthma in children over the next decade.
The data obtained in the study have suggested, more specifically, that the changing levels of ozone in the atmosphere, characteristic of climate change could produce a 7.3% increase in emergency assistance to children between zero and 17, by problems related to asthma.
In applied research scientists and regional atmospheric models to make their calculations.
Also, regional climate and related information on air quality in the state of New York with the existing health records and visits to pediatric emergency rooms of 14 metropolitan areas of the city of New York, and conducted a projection of the involvement of children for asthma in the future, depending on possible changes in ozone levels.
The results, which have helped to better understand the overall effect of climate change on children with asthma, indicate the need to take effective measures to reduce carbon pollution, to stop climate change, researchers say.
