At Climate Week NYC, leaders unveiled the updated Belém Health Action Plan, making health central to climate action ahead of COP30. From heatwaves to disease, the message was clear: the climate crisis is a health crisis—and action can’t wait. #climateweeknyc #climateresilience

Myth: healthcare ’s impact on the climate is tiny. Fact: If global healthcare were a country, it would be the 5th-largest emitter, driving nearly 5% of global carbon emissions and creating toxic waste that harms vulnerable communities. Healthcare must be part of the solution. #ClimateWeekNYC

Climate change is the health crisis of our time yet healthcare drives nearly 5% of global emissions. Emily Bancroft’s leadership, @noharm.org is transforming the sector: cutting waste, reducing emissions & centering equity. As Climate Week is proving, systemic solutions can’t wait.

As #INC5.2 talks continue, a major threat looms: a blanket exemption for healthcare in the Global #PlasticsTreaty. This push comes from fossil fuel & plastics lobbies. Plastic pollution IS a public health emergency, & healthcare must be part of the solution. Read: lnkd.in/gcpJRzmz
