Environmental Health Indicators: Climate Change

Abstract

This webpage includes a template for collecting the 24 climate and health indicators the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) recommends, as well as detailed descriptions and instructions for how to calculate each one. These indicators are meant to measure current vulnerability to climate variability and change, as well as to track possible changes in health outcomes to determine if climate change is actually affecting state, local, or regional population.
