Chapter 1: The physical basis for climate change -- Chapter 2: Current and projected climate changes in Africa by region -- Chapter 3: Impacts of climate change on environmental toxins and pollutants causing liver health problems -- Chapter 4: Infectious diseases and change of disease pattern in Africa -- Chapter 5: Impact of climate change on viral diseases in Africa -- Chapter 6: Impact of climate change on parasitic diseases in Africa -- Chapter 7: Impact of migration on GIT illness in Africa -- Chapter 8: Water Security and its impact on the liver and gut health in Africa -- Chapter 9: Food security in Africa and its impact on the liver and gut health -- Chapter 10: Towards African national and regional plans for adaptation and mitigation.

This book provides detailed information on the impact of climate change on gastrointestinal and liver health and disease patterns on the African continent. It also discusses the adaptation measures required to mitigate these impacts and highlights the complex interplay between climate change and various forms of gut diseases, ranging from the spread of infectious diseases to emerging parasites. This volume is intended for both public health researchers, climate epidemiologists, gastroenterologists, hapatologists, and tropical medicine physicians seeking to develop a comprehensive understanding of the links between climate change and disease patterns in Africa. The ideas and findings covered in this book contribute to UN Sustainable Development Goal 3: Good Health and Well-Being and SDG 13: Climate Action.
