Big subject!: Climate, rainfall, temperature, altitude, latitude and longitude, natural disasters all affect type and quality of vegetation as well as people's health everywhere. Exp: drought leads to loss of vegetation and affects food supply for animals and humans. There are poisonous plants that affect health in Africa, as here. Natural disasters are a product of climate variations, like flooding.
