We don't know enough and it is hard to back-track to correlate this with previous diseases.

Since virus can exist in an climate change does not make any issue for exisitance of virus. All a viru needs in human or living substrate for it to grow regardness of climate.

It is difficult to compare today to yesteryear, considering the advances in research and medicine. Is it fair to compare 1918 to 2020?

There has been a multitude of pandemics prior to the past 100 years.

Humans are going out into the animals ecosystems and forcing that contact between human and animal.

The development that have brought humans and animals in close contact is not the same thing as climate change.

Viruses can be caused genetic mutations that would happen without the change in climate.

Viruses have always been and will forever be.  Climate change has allowed them to evolve to become better suited for their environments, but it did not cause them to come into contact with humans for infection.

I feel that encroachment on animal habitats and the illegal poaching and selling of exotic animals is more to blame for the increase in zoonotic viruses.

There have been various studies, but not clear consensus on whether or not covid spreads easier/faster in different climates.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree because there is still major scientific debate on how much of climate change is naturally/normally occurring, verses how much change is occurring due to man-made actions.

The viruses that have caused pandemics would have still come about with or without climate change. Climate change has never been brought up as being the reason to why we are currently in this pandemic.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that we as humans might have contracted these viruses without movement as well through our consumption of food and water which had contact with virus carriers.

Pandemics are typically caused by a lack of defensive antibodies present to combat a virus or bacteria. When a virus native to an animal species mutates and comes in contact with humans, we are unable to fight it. This process does not have anything to do with climate change.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree because there are many factors to consider and there is no strong evidence that changing climate brought by human activity caused viral pandemics. Other factors such as lack of hygiene or ingesting toxic chemicals could also cause these.

climate change has caused some habitats to decrease and sent animals to other places.

During our COVID pandemic there was no news about how Climate Change was the link to us contracting the virus. You would have thought that would have been on someones agenda to push for reform for Climate Change.

Humans naturally are curious and will seek out new discoveries, including wildlife. Ultimately, humans were bound to be in contact with wildlife and be exposed to the viruses they carry.

# data[].attributes.body
Zoonotic viruses, such as the coronavirus, infect humans when there is improper care and interactions with the wildlife that is a host for that virus, not because of climate change.

# data[].attributes.body
Human population growth has been exponential for the last 200 years and this has resulted in a great deal of habitat loss and human population movement and this is also a factor

Viruses can be moved through people and animals. This has less to do with climate now as it does just travel desires/importing and exporting.

The viruses and pandemics from the last 100 years are a result of MANY factors and variables, several of which are referenced in the article. Climate change is just one of the many consequences of the way we live, as are pandemics.

# data[].attributes.body
While there is no denying that human activity has certainly altered the climate of the entire globe, the likelihood of a direct link between viral mutation and increased global temperatures is unlikely. Viral mutation is a guarantee as long as there is a virus to mutate. In fact, cellular mutation is the basis of evolution which is something that has happened since the original first single celled organism.

# data[].attributes.body
There have been many significant pandemics that occurred before the industrial revolution and anthropogenic climate change. I think the severity of modern pandemics is amplified by the ease of travel and population density in urban areas that was not present in the past.

I do not believe that climate change is the cause of pandemics. I think the cause is that humans are more careless with actions, which can worsen both, but neither are the cause or effect of each other.

# data[].attributes.headline
I disagree most the pandemics caused by viruses were not the cause of  climate change.  Pandemics have happened without climate change.   Although climate change did not cause pandemics it might have exacerbate the problem.
