WATCH: The Net Zero Festival 2023 hears from Bupa's Julia Giannini, Neil Jones at Walgreens Boots Alliance, and Forum for the Future's international MD Hannah Pathak on the need for interlinked corporate action on climate, nature and public health
The climate crisis is also a public health crisis, with potentially devastating impacts on human health, as air pollution, deforestation, and rising temperatures exacerbate both non-communicable and infectious diseases.
