In this video, BlueAdapt researchers explore the complex relationships between climate change, coastal pollution, and public health risks. With increasing rainfall and flooding due to climate change, harmful bacteria and viruses are flushed into coastal waters, posing serious risks to human health.
Surveying perceptions of health risks from coastal waters, and assessing the cost-benefits of interventions.
Reviewing the evidence to quantify the health risks of waterborne pathogens and inform policy and innovation.
Engaging with the public, educators, businesses and policymakers to inform policy and practice.
