Introduction
Anthropogenic acts have brought around immediate changes as well as disruptions in global climate which has a significant impact on health issues. Although most advocates of public health and policy makers are feeling the implications brought about by climate change, the current approaches or policies are lagging behind. Environmental policies in the US are guided by the federal statutes which tend to be limited as well as general in nature. Global warming is one of the health issues that is facing California in the recent years (Mann& Gleick, 2015).
The temperatures in California have been rising over the last couple of years with temperatures rising above 3-degree Fahrenheit higher as opposed to the historical records obtained between year 1949 and 2005. Specifically in the Joaquin Valley, there has been a reported decrease in the precipitation which has led to drought conditions with the years 2012 as well as 2014 being the driest and hottest years to have been recorded. There is a difference in socioeconomic status in Joaquin Valley with the rest of California and the rest of the country (Mann& Gleick, 2015). The San Joaquin Valley has 8counties and had a population of approximately 3.9 million people as per the records in the census that was conducted in the year 2010.
