Obesity and climate change conspire to create an environment in which subclinical vascular inflammation leads to progressive atherosclerosis, which contributes to the number 1 cause of global mortality: cardiovascular disease.

This article explores the syndemic of obesity and climate change as a driver for cardiovascular disease.
