The relationship between WASH and climate change is critical, as both infrastructure and community practices are highly sensitive to climate variability. Extreme weather events such as floods can damage WASH systems, while droughts reduce water availability, and rising temperatures influence water demand and the spread of disease vectors. Changes in rainfall patterns may either increase or decrease water supply, directly affecting community needs. Low rainfall often leads to the drying up of water sources, while floods, storms, and droughts can disrupt services, contaminate water supplies, and damage sanitation facilities. Such impacts increase the risk of exposure to pathogens, heightening the likelihood of disease outbreaks when access to safe water and adequate sanitation is compromised.

DO YOU KNOW BY PLANTING ONE TREE CAN MAKE DIFFERENCE?

Climate change refers to long-term changes in temperature, precipitation, and other atmospheric conditions on Earth. It primarily involves the warming of the planet due to increased concentrations of greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide and methane, from human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. These changes can lead to a variety of impacts, including more extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and disruptions to ecosystems and agriculture

Trees help to stabilize our climate by absorbing and sequestering carbon via photosynthesis. In fact, one mature tree can sequester up to 22lbs of carbon in one year. They also filter and absorb air pollutants, release oxygen for us to breathe, modulate temperatures, provide wildlife habitat, and so much more.
