Skin cancer and respiratory diseases thought to be the first of two diseases caused by the earth's climate changes, which among other things caused by global warming.

"Depletion of the ozone layer in the stratosphere has increased the risk of skin cancer and the increase in temperature due to climate change can increase the concentration of surface ozone, which is one of the major air pollutant and can cause respiratory disease," said Director General of Disease Control and Environmental Health Ministry of Health Tjandra Yoga Aditama in Jakarta, Thursday (20/01/2011).

He explained that climate change will also trigger the reduction of biodiversity so as to cause the scarcity of raw materials from plants.

In addition, land degradation and changes in ecosystem function can cause changes in the spread of disease vectors and declining water resources. This can lead to limited access to clean water and safe sanitation.

Currently in Indonesia, as well as in many countries around the world, started to show signs such as rainfall increased significantly in the wet season and less rainfall in the dry months.

Tjandra explained, climate change affects health through transmission lines and dynamic microbial contamination. Health impact of these processes, among other things, the effect of increased temperature on morbidity and mortality, extreme weather disasters, increased air pollution, water and food borne diseases, and congenital disease vectors and rodents.
