Host Lisa Patel sits down with Dr. Neil Vora for a conversation on the intersection of climate change and infectious disease. They explore how rising global temperatures and environmental disruption are fueling the emergence and spread of infectious diseases—including the increasing threat of spillover viruses jumping from animals to humans. Learn how nature-based solutions can bridge the gap between climate and health, and why addressing biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation is essential for our health.
