Increasing concentrations of CO2 and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere can be directly related to global warming. In terms of human health, because a major cause of increasing atmospheric concentrations of CO2 is the increased combustion of fossil fuels, global warming also may result in increases in air pollutants, acid deposition, and exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. To understand better the impacts of global warming phenomena on human health, this review emphasizes the processes that are responsible for the greenhouse effect, air pollution, acid deposition, and increased exposure to UV radiation.
大气中二氧化碳及其他温室气体浓度的不断增加与全球变暖直接相关。就人类健康而言，由于大气中二氧化碳浓度增加的一个主要原因是化石燃料燃烧增加，全球变暖还可能导致空气污染物增加、酸沉降以及紫外线（UV）辐射暴露增加。为了更好地理解全球变暖现象对人类健康的影响，本综述着重阐述了造成温室效应、空气污染、酸沉降以及紫外线辐射暴露增加的过程。
