Climate change and increase of allergic diseases

SUMMARY

Several studies have demonstrated that the asthma prevalence is increased from the early sixties, with a growth concerning both children and adults in different countries with different ways of life. Other allergic diseases has increased all over the world too. Among the supposition suggested, we can find the air pollution and the Hygiene Hypothesis. Climate Change is a further additional and supplementary element that it could come into play to explain the increase in allergic diseases observed during recent years. In recent years the Climate Change discussion has carried on from the field of academic studies into the political field. Certainly, this matter does not bring to an objective understanding of the problem. This is the reason why I’ll not debate if the real cause of the Climate Change lies in the anthropogenetics factors or in a natural cycle of the earth.
