The EU’s proposed 2040 climate target to reduce domestic emissions by 90% - while allowing up to 3% to be met through international carbon credits – risks undermining health protections. The Health and Environment Alliance calls on member states to strengthen their climate commitments in order to protect health, rather than delay and weaken overdue action.
HEAL’s Deputy Director Anne Stauffer participated in a webinar organised by the ENBEL project.
The webinar was part of the 5th European Climate Change Adaptation Conference (ECCA) webinar series. It presented state-of-the art knowledge on health effects of global warming linked to heat stress and other climate hazards in a European context and discusses how alternative policy options and measures can help safeguarding the health and wellbeing of citizens through climate action.
