Climate Change: One Planet, One Chance

This slide presentation introduces the Magnum photo essay. The images show that climate change is affecting rainfall, temperatures and water availability for agriculture in vulnerable areas. The danger is that extreme food insecurity episodes will become more common. Major killer diseases could expand their coverage. Rich countries are already preparing public health to deal with future climate shocks. For poor countries it is much harder: they need international support to adapt.
