Zika virus is sickening around 100 million people every year and killing thousands. It as an epidemic virus that is going on in Brazil and is transmitted by mosquitoes. Recent research suggests that global warming is likely to increase the range of these mosquitoes carrying this virus, over the decades. The worst case scenarios said by scientists is that continuing high global emissions coupled with fast population growth, the number of people exposed to the virus can be doubled, like progress around 8 to 9 billion later on in future.“As we get continued warming, it’s going to become more difficult to control mosquitoes,” says Andrew Monaghan, who is studying the interaction of climate and health at the National Center for Atmospheric Research
