Are we assuming there would be less human interaction with animals?

While climate change could be responsible, there are still other variables involved that may affect the increase in viruses.

# data[].attributes.body
While climate change does effect how viruses spread, it is not directly related to viruses affecting humans or not. Human interactions with animals is what is mostly linked to the affect in humans.

Disease is not being spread by the change in the climate, is is being spread by humans coming into closer contact with wild animals.

Viruses happen with or without climate change.

Viruses infect organisms. That's what they do. Climate change is a factor that impacts how well a virus can spread. It does NOT give a virus it's ability to infect an organism.

Climate change is cyclical and not brought on by human activity.

While there are many factors that affect pandemic viruses.  Climate change in the past was not really one of them, but they may have more effect in the future, if climate change continues at the pace it is going.

this one is difficult but I think that the existence of viruses is independent of climate

I feel that the viruses are not only affecting humans because of the climate change. Some of the virus carries come from bugs or animals, therefore it can be many factors to the virus that affects humans.

The global average temperature on the planet didn't begin rising in earnest until about 50 years ago.  Far too late to be responsible for all the pandemics of the last 100 years.  While it is true that most deadly disease is a result of close animal and human contact, that has traditionally been contact with domestic animals.  That contact would have occurred regardless of climate change.

Human activities and the changing climates do not dictate the nature of disease spread.

Climate change is not the sole reason humans have moved around the world over the past 100 years.  There any many other reason for this and the spread of viruses.

disagree because viruses can adapt to any climate, warm or cold.

There are many factors that go into both climate change and virus pandemics. One similar one that they have is population density which has increased over time. This causes a correlation between the increase in virus pandemics and an increase in climate change but does not prove a causal relationship between the two!

Climate change does not directly influence how a virus can spread from one species to humans

I disagree we have had viruses long before climate change

Viruses are not temperature-dependent like bacteria are. Many can survive in a "hibernation" state for even 100s or 1000s of years until they find a reliable host. I have also done reading that indicates many zoonotic spillovers are a result of human dietary/ hunting habits.

Climate change and pandemics occur from different sources, making them independent of each other

I disagree, climate changes and pathogenic infections occurred before humans started burning fossil fuels.
