Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2024
- The changing climate is an existential threat and described by the UN Secretary General as a ‘code red for humanity’. Australia is one of the countries on the frontlines of climate-health impacts, including increasing in extreme weather events, changes in infectious diseases patterns, and food and water security. These impacts will place unprecedented pressure on our health system and are exacerbating existing health inequities, with vulnerable groups and rural communities most affected. The healthcare sector alone is responsible for almost 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions and if it were a country, it would be the fifth largest polluter on Earth. Under a ‘business as usual’ scenario, emissions from healthcare could triple between now and 2050.
Join Kimberly to hear why the responsibility to address the impact of climate change in healthcare rests not with just a few but everyone who works in it!
