Do you believe there is a link between climate change and the COVID pandemic? by Our School, Our Playground https://padlet.com/uscop8/w5tmh418u8e08oms en-us 2023-02-15 09:04:46 UTC 2023-03-06 10:54:11 UTC hello@padlet.com First Primary School of Chalandri https://padlet.com/uscop8/w5tmh418u8e08oms/wish/2483213753 We don't have direct evidence that climate change is influencing the spread of COVID-19 but we do know that climate change alters how we relate to other species on the Eath and that matters to our health and our risk for infections.As the planet heats up,animals big and small in the sea, are headed to the poles to get out of the heat.That means animals are coming into contact with other animals they normally wouldn't, and that creates an opportunity for pathogens to get into new hosts.Loss of habitat forces animals to migrate and contact other animals or people and share germs. Large livestock farms can also serve as a source for infection from animals to people.]]> 2023-02-15 09:34:03 UTC https://padlet.com/uscop8/w5tmh418u8e08oms/wish/2483213753 Silvia Sanfilippo https://padlet.com/uscop8/w5tmh418u8e08oms/wish/2493673653 in my opinion there is a correlation between climate change and the pandemic because man affects ecosystems, deforestation, coming into contact with animals that do not share our habitat, for example bats because data says that this species of animal has increased due to of climate change, rising temperatures increase the viral load in some species]]> 2023-02-24 09:48:55 UTC https://padlet.com/uscop8/w5tmh418u8e08oms/wish/2493673653 Silvia your comment is really interesting and well presented geracidaniela https://padlet.com/uscop8/w5tmh418u8e08oms/wish/2504960461 2023-03-06 10:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/uscop8/w5tmh418u8e08oms/wish/2504960461
