Building on these frameworks and perspectives, there is increasing overlap in the literature on global health, climate change impacts and estimates of loss and damage. The Global Burden of Disease study for 2019 for the first time included non-optimal temperature as a risk factor . Work by social scientists continues to explore how climate change indirectly affects resource availability, productivity, migration and conflict , bringing multiple lines of inquiry together to study the associations between global environmental changes, socioeconomic dynamics and impacts on health and well- being. Morbidity associated with migration and displacement, especially in the context of small island states, has been identified as a non-material form of loss and damage . Social costs of carbon estimates have been updated to include excess mortality associated with climate change, increasing estimates substantially .
