    All facets of society are impacted by the threat that climate change poses to human health, both locally and worldwide. Human health will be impacted by the environmental effects of climate change, both those that have already been seen and those that are yet to come, including sea level rise, changes in precipitation that cause flooding and drought, heat waves, stronger hurricanes and storms, and deteriorated air quality. It is particularly difficult to address how climate change affects human health since both the external environment and individual behaviours have an impact on health. That climate change is currently a public health emergency is supported by substantial scientific data. International human rights, environmental, and climate laws and regulations are being used in climate lawsuits taken against governments and businesses to demand accountability for activities that affect the environment and human health. Climate change's effects on human health make litigation a crucial tool for pursuing justice and successfully overturning established legal frameworks. This paper is to aims to provide a vision and way forward on how the country and its health community need to respond to environmental health risks and challenges, and to ensure safe, enabling and equitable environments for health by transforming our way of living, working, producing, consuming and governing.<\/p>\n
