The increasing frequency of chemical disasters, exacerbated by the effects of climate change, poses significant public health challenges globally. India, with its growing industrial landscape, urbanization, and vulnerability to climate-related extreme events, is particularly at risk. This paper explores the public health implications of chemical disasters in the context of climate change, focusing on India as a case study. It examines the intersection of industrial activities, environmental vulnerabilities, and the impacts of climate change, highlighting both acute and long-term health outcomes for affected populations. The study also addresses the challenges of managing chemical hazards in a rapidly changing climate, suggesting policy interventions and strategies to mitigate the public health risks posed by chemical disasters in India.
