54 (4). We are looking at a large number of children among the highly affected. And drowning was found to be the principal cause of these deaths. National outcomes in their future livelihoods…Modelling suggests that an estimated additional seventy thousand (70,000) Filipino children will be malnourished by 2050 due to the impact of climate change, representing an increase of four percent (4%)… Now if we look at disease and the right to health, children are also highly susceptible to many infectious waterborne diseases that become more prevalent in the context of droughts, floods, and extreme weather, particularly when damage to essential water and sanitation infrastructure occurs. Diarrheal diseases are another major cause of mortality for children, responsible for over half a million deaths of children under five (5) in 2015, the fourth leading cause of death under five (5)-year-olds in the Philippines. Rising temperatures also increase the incidence of vector-borne diseases, such as malaria and dengue fever. The global burden of these diseases is already heavily concentrated on children. Seventy percent (70%) of all deaths from malaria in 2015 occurred in children under the age of five (5). The World Health Organization projects that climate change will cause an additional 60,000 deaths from malaria among children under the age of fifteen (15) by 2030. In the Philippines, malaria is already endemic in certain province [sic], but WHO projects over one hundred fifty (150) million people will be at risk of malaria by 2017, under both high and low emission scenarios. Climate change can exacerbate air pollution. It does not cause air pollution, but it can exacerbate the toxicity of certain pollutants, including ozone, and it increases the frequency of wildfires and drought. Air pollution causes approximately six hundred thousand (600,000) deaths of children under five (5) every year. Many more suffer from disease and disability with lifelong consequences and children, again, are more susceptible to air pollution than adults for many reasons. They have smaller airways, they have a developing immune system, and these are easily overwhelmed by infections. They breathe more quickly than adults and they take more air per unit of body weight as well. Acute respiratory infection has been identified as one of the top three (3) causes of mortality in children under five (5) in the Philippines. The final impact is on the right to education. Climate change has been recognized as an emerging and persistent barrier to the right to education in the Philippines. Impacts include destruction of school infrastructure, loss of nutrition, which means that children
