What if health could be the key to unlocking climate action? Shweta Narayan, Campaign Lead at the Global Climate Health Alliance, talks about how public health is a powerful lever for global climate action. Drawing from her childhood in an industrial town in India, Shweta explores the climate health impact of the air pollution crisis, the role of environmental justice, and how sustainable healthcare systems and preventative healthcare can transform both patient outcomes and the planet. A powerful call for change, led by those we trust most: health professionals.
