Will climate change increase suicide rates?

Global warming seems set to impact almost every facet of our lives. A new study predicts that it might also increase suicide rates in the United States and Mexico.

Climate change, a study has predicted,
could see an increase in the suicide rate.

Sadly, suicide is still one of the leading causes of death worldwide. For instance, in the United States, there are an average of 123 suicides per day.

In 2016, there were more than twice as many suicides as there were homicides.

In fact, according to the authors of the new study, "[S]uicide alone causes more deaths globally than all forms of interpersonal and intergroup violence combined.”
