Health Co-Benefits of Climate Change Mitigation Policies - WHO Webinar (June 28, 2012)
What do we need to do to Advance Healthy Mitigation Policy? - WHO Webinar (June 28, 2012)
Climate change, by effecting the eco-systems and environments humans live in, naturally has a human health component. There is strong evidence of large and diverse health benefits to be gained from mitigation policies, both short and long-term. Priority should be given to policy areas where health, environmental, and development objectives align. So far progress in this direction has been slow. Improved inter-disciplinary approaches along these lines combined with enhancing public awareness of the benefits of mitigation policies is necessary to move forward.
