IMPACT OF GLOBAL WARMING
Abstract
Global warming, primarily driven by greenhouse gas accumulation, is fundamentally reshaping envi-ronmental exposures that contribute to the development, exacerbation, and global burden of allergic diseases. This chapter systematically examines how global warming, through both direct biological effects and indirect environmental consequences, influences allergic diseases affecting the respiratory system, skin, and gastrointestinal tract, with a specific focus on epithelial barrier disruption as a central unifying mechanism.
