The most significant factor for the drastic climate change that has been seen across the globe are primarily due to human activities. Greenhouse gas emission is the predominant reason for the global warming threat that we all are dealing with today among which CO₂ is the largest contributor. With existing climate change policies and the sustainable development practices, we follow global greenhouse gas emissions are likely to grow in the coming years (Metz et al. 2007). The emitted greenhouse gas is the prevalent cause of the changing climate especially the rise in temperature which is recognised to be a significant risk factor for people with diabetes and hypertension. By promoting the hypertension and diabetes, environmental factors may contribute substantially to the development and enhancement of cardiometabolic diseases (Münzel et al. 2017b, 2017c).
