New Kerala: A new study has revealed that climate change could cause significant changes to global diets, leading to more than half a million extra deaths by 2050. The research is the strongest evidence yet that climate change could have damaging consequences for food production and health worldwide and is the first of its kind to assess the impact of climate change on diet composition and bodyweight, and to estimate the number of deaths they will cause in 155 countries in 2050.

Climate change: Global warming fruit and veg shortage could lead to 1,200 extra UK deaths a year by 2050

Telegraph: Climate change could lead to more than 1,200 extra deaths a year in the UK by 2050 as global warming causes fruit and vegetable shortages, new research suggests. The typical British diet will deteriorate as the effects of climate change hit crop production, resulting in supply shortages and pushing up prices, Oxford University researchers said. This will increase the number of deaths for which poor diet is a risk factor - more than offsetting a reduction in deaths from obesity that may be seen...
