I disagree that it is solely climate change, but rather it is destruction of habitat and the encroachment of humans on formerly uninhabited area that has ushered in pandemics. If populations could have grown without climate change, I believe we would still have pandemics.

I don't agree with this statement because there has been a significant increase of human/animal interactions in the last 100 years.

I don’t agree with this statement.  Viruses will change, mutate, and reproduce.  So, we will have new ones pop up now and then.  Climate change may have sped this up or slowed it down, but new DNA and RNA is going to happen.  Our choice is to spread or not to spread.

Recent pandemics would have occurred regardless of human activities causing climate change. There may be an indirect relationship with climate change and viruses that have caused pandemics. Although climate change may support the survival and evolutionary rate of these viruses I do not think climate change was a significant reason for the cause of the recent global pandemics.

I mostly disagree with the above statement. Climate change may have changed conditions on Earth, but it is only one of many factors influencing each pandemic. If you look at each pandemic case by case climate change would have a range of impacts on each one, sometimes having no impact, other times having a significant impact. Therefore, we cannot say that without climate change most pandemics would not have occurred.

Although climate change has the potential to cause pandemics now and in the future, it has not affected the pandemics of the past 100 years as much as increasing human populations have.

While I think human impact does play a role in virus acquisition and transmission, I do not think that climate change is directly responsible.  Destruction of habitats and having animals move into areas where humans live, or vice versa is a more the central issue.

  Our interactions with animals, wild or domesticated, are where most of our emerging diseases have come from if we want to look at the most direct cause.  SO if we are using the article only, I would disagree.  

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with the clim because viruses are strong and the article states humans contract viruses through animals. Therefore, climate change is not the direct cause. The article also states that COVID19 is not linked to temperature, which proves that even this pandemic is not due to climate change.

Climate change was brought on by the release of gases from fossil fuels.  Due to these releases, animals were driven out of their natural habitat and forced to move.  Humans were already interacting with animals before climate change: hunting, domesticating, etc.  I disagree with that statement.  Aersol and liquid transition have nothing to do with climate change.

I’m finding this question almost impossible to answer - the question asks if climate change had not been occurring that many of the pandemics of the last 100 years would have been avoided? Does this presume that humans never began using fossil fuels? If so, I have no idea what our world would have looked like (modern agriculture, medicine, population, deforestation, warfare, etc) had we never began using fossil fuels. However if we are assuming that all things are held equal except that fossil fuels never led to climate change, I’d say humans would still be facing many of the same pandemics we have faced due to overpopulation, warfare, and other environmental pressures humans place on our world.

I believe that human encroachment on animal environments is the primary cause for these pandemics. Animals are the primary original carriers for many of these viruses according to the article.

# data[].attributes.body
Much of our exposure to viruses has been our proximity to animals through urbanization and agriculture.  Major effects of climate change have only been really seen the last 30 - 40 years.

I disagree with the claim because most of the pandemics that have affected humans are not directly linked to climate change. Instead, both climate change and pandemics are a by-product of the same issue: overpopulation. As mentioned in the article in paragraph 4, CoVID does not have a direct link to temperature, and therefore cannot be made worse solely due to climate change. Instead, overpoplulation, which results in habitat fragmentation (paragraph 10)  and closer interactions of humans and animals is the main way the worst pandemics have begun and zoonotic diseases have been transferred (paragraph 7).
