Global Toxicology and Risk Assessment

Climate Change and Toxicological Risk

Climate change exacerbates the spread and toxicity of environmental pollutants. This session explores the interactions between global warming and chemical behavior. Topics include altered exposure patterns, new risk vectors, and vulnerable populations. Ecosystem shifts and extreme weather events influence contaminant dynamics. Adaptive risk assessment frameworks are needed for evolving threats. Public health preparedness must integrate toxicology with climate science. Interdisciplinary solutions are essential in facing this dual challenge.
