Women are often responsible for collecting water and firewood, which are increasingly scarce due to climate change. Moreover, there are two hundred and fifteen million women around the world who have an unmet need for contraception. In some regions, young women between the ages of 15 and 19 are twice as likely to lack access to contraceptive methods as women who are over 20 years old. The ability of a community to respond to climate change can improve if women gain access to information about sexual and reproductive health services to plan their families.</p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p>But access to sexual and reproductive health services, including contraception, could be seriously hampered by the damaging effects of climate change, which would limit the options for women and young people to plan their families and, in addition, make it difficult capacity of communities to mitigate and respond to climate change.</p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p>Experts have also found that the protection of young people's sexual and reproductive health and rights is cost-effective. Based on recent data on emissions and the effectiveness and cost of programs, climate change economists have come to the conclusion that responding to the unmet need for contraceptive methods and providing educational support to young women is much more economical than the development of low carbon emission options, including the development of solar, wind or nuclear generation, of second generation biofuels, or of carbon capture and storage. It was found that family planning programs and girls' education were cost-competitive with forest conservation and other improvements in agricultural and forestry practices.</p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p>Finally, in addition to being cost-effective and an imperative for human rights, investing women with the power to plan their pregnancies would significantly reduce carbon emissions. This step in itself would provide 8 to 15 percent of the reductions needed to avoid the climate change.</p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p>The movements of sexual and reproductive health and rights and of climate change must recognize their interconnection and join efforts to help mitigate climate change and ensure women's access to their sexual and reproductive health rights.</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"fk5uqeb7x","appParentAuthor":"elyon","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
