Climate change is projected to have adverse impacts on public health. Cobenefits may be possible from more upstream mitigation of greenhouse gases causing climate change. To help measure such cobenefits alongside averted disease-specific risks, a health impact assessment (HIA) framework can more comprehensively serve as a decision support tool. HIA also considers health equity, clearly part of the climate change problem. New choices for energy must be made carefully considering such effects as additional pressure on the world's forests through large-scale expansion of soybean and oil palm plantations, leading to forest clearing, biodiversity loss and disease emergence, expulsion of subsistence farmers, and potential increases in food prices and emissions of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Investigators must consider the full range of policy options, supported by more comprehensive, flexible, and transparent assessment methods.

全球气候变化的健康影响评估：在政策制定方面采用比较风险评估方法。

预计气候变化将对公共卫生产生不利影响。可能会从上游减少温室气体引起气候变化而产生协同效益。为了帮助衡量此类协同效益以及避免特定疾病的风险，健康影响评估（HIA）框架可以更全面地用作决策支持工具。HIA还考虑健康公平，这显然是气候变化问题的一部分。必须谨慎考虑新的能源选择，例如，由于大豆和油棕种植园的大规模扩张对世界森林造成的额外压力，导致森林砍伐，生物多样性丧失和疾病的出现，驱逐自给农民以及潜在的农民增加等影响，必须谨慎选择新的能源。食品价格和向大气排放的二氧化碳。
