Every day, and in every country, the health of people is being compromised by the climate crisis. A healthier future for us all is possible, if we unite in calling on our leaders to take urgent and real climate action.
Health students, health professionals, health focused academics and healthcare workers from across the globe- we need you to help us spread the message that urgent climate action is needed to build a healthier future for us all. You can play a powerful role explaining the impacts of climate change on health, the opportunities to improve health through climate action, and why a healthy future for all requires a stable climate, to your community, decision-makers and to your peers.
