由于极端天气破坏的食物系统,气候变化使三个太平洋国家的儿童营养不良状况恶化。 Climate change worsens child malnutrition in three Pacific nations due to extreme weather damaging food systems.

拯救儿童联盟在世界粮食日发表的一项新的研究报告将气候变化与巴布亚新几内亚、所罗门群岛和瓦努阿图儿童营养不良状况恶化联系起来,在这些地方,气旋、洪水和海平面上升正在破坏作物、渔场和基础设施。 A new Save the Children study released on World Food Day links climate change to worsening child malnutrition in Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu, where cyclones, floods, and rising sea levels are damaging crops, fishing grounds, and infrastructure. 报告发现,该地区每三名儿童中就有一人面临发育迟缓、贫血或超重,巴布亚新几内亚的发育迟缓率高达48.2%。 The report finds one in three children in the region faces stunting, anemia, or overweight, with stunting rates as high as 48.2% in PNG. 气候混乱会减少食物获取,提高价格,迫使家庭转向不健康、加工食品,在生命头1 000天的关键时期破坏营养。 Climate disruptions reduce food access, raise prices, and push families toward unhealthy, processed foods, undermining nutrition during the critical first 1,000 days of life. 反复发生的灾害使社区没有多少时间来恢复,削弱了复原能力。 Repeated disasters leave communities little time to recover, weakening resilience. 本组织敦促太平洋各国政府将营养问题纳入气候适应计划,以解决相互关联的危机。 The organization urges Pacific governments to integrate nutrition into climate adaptation plans to address the interconnected crises.
