Reason behind eye infection: The threat of climate change is hovering over the whole world, which is directly affecting our health. In today's era, the problem of colds and eye infections has become common among people. In research, climate change has been considered as its main reason. The study is published in the journal Frontiers in Allergy. In the study, researchers found that climate change and ragweed pollen helped spread two major allergens. Both of these are responsible for common colds and eye infections.

The researchers developed a computer-based modeling system. It simulated the distribution of pollen for the years 2004 and 2047. It was found that by 2050, there will be a further increase in these cases. Let us tell you that in the recent IPCC report on climate change, the scale weight bulb temperature has been told to measure heat and humidity together. Which helps in spreading these pollens. Wet-bulb temperatures of 31°C are considered extremely dangerous. At 35 degrees, even adults will not be able to survive for more than six hours. The wet-bulb temperature in India is 31 degrees.
