Australian Health Leaders Urge Fossil Fuel Action for Climate Health

Original: # Australia Over 50 Health Leaders Warn Australia Cannot Protect People From Climate Change Without Tackling Fossil Fuel

More than 50 health leaders from Australia and the Pacific have warned that Australia cannot protect people's health from climate change without tackling fossil fuels. They argue that preparing hospitals and healthcare services for climate impacts will not be enough unless the country addresses the root cause by curbing fossil fuel use, linking health policy directly to emissions policy.

Why now: Health experts are drawing attention to the connection between fossil fuels and public health risks from climate change.
