“Clean air is not a 'nice to have' - it’s a public health necessity, and the profound and far-reaching health impacts of air pollution demand an urgent, coordinated, and strategic response from governments worldwide”, said Shweta Narayan, roadmap author and Campaign Lead at the Global Climate and Health Alliance Campaign, which is made up of over 200 health professional and health civil society organisations and networks from around the world. “To address this crisis effectively, governments must reframe air pollution not merely as a challenge of emissions reductions or technology, but as a critical and preventable threat to the public health and well-being of people, which requires urgent, health-centered action to protect lives and communities. The solutions already exist - governments cannot afford to dither on taking action”. #airpollution #WHO #health
