Climate as a Determinant of Longevity
At the 2025 Global Longevity Forum, researchers emphasized that climate change is emerging
as a major determinant of human lifespan.
According to Dr. José Serres, “for every 1°C increase in global temperature, average life
expectancy falls by 0.44 years, roughly five months per person.”
This finding reframes climate change not merely as an environmental challenge, but as a
longevity crisis.
Rising temperatures, air pollution, and food insecurity are accelerating age related decline and
widening health disparities, particularly among vulnerable populations in low income regions.
Integrating Sustainability and Longevity
The intersection of environmental health and human longevity is opening new policy and
investment frontiers.
Opportunities:
● Healthy cities: Urban design that promotes physical activity, clean air, and social
cohesion.
● Green health infrastructure: Climate resilient hospitals and care systems.
● Policy alignment: Integrating environmental action into national health and longevity
strategies.
Risks:
● Health inequalities deepened by climate vulnerability.
● Economic disruption from climate-induced health impacts.
● Slow policy response to interconnected global risks.
The Strategic View
Building a sustainable longevity economy requires action across sectors, by linking
environmental policy, healthcare systems, and innovation in biotechnology and data analytics.
The principle is simple: healthier ecosystems sustain healthier, longer lived populations.
Organizations that integrate sustainability metrics into their longevity strategies are more likely to
achieve resilient growth and long term value creation.
