By social distancing and wearing masks, we can greatly decrease the spread of the virus.

Climate is just one small part to a much larger problem.

Pandemics have been been happening since times of ancient Greece.

Climate change, as a human accelerated event, is not something that is more than 100 years old. Therefore, the instability that leads to population influx of a displaced group of peoples, therefore putting them at risk of diseases that they do not have an immunity to, seems to be rooting in something OTHER than climate change. However, moving forward, it is very possible that climate change will be causily related to those kinds of instabilities.

People traveling around the world has caused viruses to spread faster than before.

Both climate change AND global pandemics are the result of human activity - although we are not creating the viruses, per se, we are creating the conditions that allow them to spread so widely. Some of those conditions are related to climate change, but cc has not caused pandemics.

# data[].attributes.body
It seems that the things that cause climate change are also causing viruses to lead to pandemics. For example pollution is leading to people being less likely to fight off the virus.

Climate change allows for a number of factors, once there is an opening in the reduction of trees or a reduction of organisms, then there is room for anything.

Humans interacting with the organisms through raising them, hunting or consumption causes them to get virus into their system.

Climate change is nothing new, its been happening for millions of yeaers before humans

The virus doesn’t appear to care what the average global temperature is.

Disease will happen no matter the state of planet or the century you live in.

Human activities are what has caused the pandemic and spread of virus. Environment has not part in that.

# data[].attributes.body
Climate change may be a factor of the spread of viruses, but it is not the direct cause or greatest influencing factor of the spread of viral diseases.

# data[].attributes.body
Virus will evolve no matter what despite climate change. They can infect their host with that evolution.

The climate has changed throughout the history of our planet and will continue to change. What evidence is there that this increase of diseases occured in the past with our ancient ancestors?

Both climate change and pandemics are the result of increased human population. They don't have as strong of a connection with each other as they do with the fact that humans are causing both.

Human travel has had a greater affect on increase in pandemics - than - climate change

Climate change certainly causes instability in different ways. But climate change doesn't really support zoonoes.

Climate change is NOT responsible for the evolution of the different viruses - they develop regardless of the ecological conditions of the world, and their infectious abilities have evolved because of natural selection not climate change.

The author claims that coronavirus was most likely contracted from anteater-like animals during illegal wildlife trading. This seems like a much more direct and reasonable cause than climate change, which has only indirect effects.

I don't think that humans are solely to blame for the increase of viruses. Viruses are a older species and have been here longer than humans

# data[].attributes.body
The claim is that many of these viruses "would not have affected humans". This seems like a big stretch. Climate change has definitely worsened the impacts, and increased the spread of many viruses, but we don't have enough evidence to conclude that climate change is the reason for these organisms coming into contact with humans

# data[].attributes.body
They just exist and do not consciously realize the climate is changing

# data[].attributes.body
While the author makes this central statement about climate change brought about by human activity, the author provides little evidence to connect the zoonoses to climate change. The author clearly indicates the human activities that lead to zoonotic diseases, but fails to make the jump to climate change.
