#HealthyClimate Prescription
The 2021 United Nations climate negotiations in November (COP26) are a critical moment to put the world on a path that protects people from catastrophic climate change. The health community around the world is coming together to send a message to national leaders and country delegations, calling for rapid and strong action to address the climate crisis.
Visit the #HealthyClimate Prescription website to sign the #HealthyClimate Prescription and learn more about how you can communicate the urgency of protecting people’s health through climate action to decision makers, the public and other health professionals

Every two minutes in the UK a baby is born in an area with dangerously polluted air. Why isn't Government committing to stronger targets in the #EnvironmentAct? We need #CleanAirNow. We can't wait another 18 years for outdated @WHO targets.
