The Rise in Natural Disasters Due to the Climate Crisis |
Climate change is worsening challenges for individuals with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) by intensifying chemical exposures from wildfires, hurricanes, and heat waves, leading to poor air quality and severe health reactions. Emergency shelters often lack appropriate accommodations. Updated disaster preparedness, policy awareness, and investments in safer building materials and air purification are needed for inclusive, climate-resilient support. |

These effects are especially concerning for those with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), emphasizing the need for more research, stricter regulations, and greater awareness to reduce
PFAS risks. |
