Climate change poses a critical challenge to global health, with its impacts—ranging from heat waves and wildfires to changing disease endemicity and disruptive weather events—growing in frequency and intensity. Currently, 3.6 billion people reside in highly susceptible areas, with climate change projected to cause an additional 250,000 deaths annually by 2030-2050 due to diseases and undernutrition. The most affected will be those in low- and middle-income countries with fragile health infrastructures. Biomedical informatics is an important tool for tackling these challenges by providing essential data for understanding, preventing, and mitigating climate change's effects on health. This panel will describe the potential for global health informatics to facilitate evidence-based decisions and improve preparedness, especially in vulnerable regions. Addressing data collection and sharing challenges is critical for harnessing informatics in the fight against climate change-induced health crises.
