Summary

Climate change is a major global problem threatening individual health, public health, and health systems. Climate change poses a significant global threat to social and environmental health determinants, such as the disruption of food systems, the spread of climate-sensitive diseases, and the increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that climate change will cause approximately 250,000 additional deaths annually from malaria, diarrhea, malnutrition, and heat stress between 2030 and 2050. In this context, nursing students, as future healthcare providers, need to be prepared and knowledgeable about global warming, climate change and its impacts on health, climate change mitigation, adaptation and resilience, and the promotion of a healthy environment for a sustainable future. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of climate change education on nursing students' knowledge and attitudes regarding climate change and health.
