North Central London Green Plan to improve health and wellbeing through sustainable healthcare
The climate emergency poses a major threat to human health as well as the health of our planet. We are already seeing consequences of the climate emergency and these will only worsen if we do not take action.
Widening inequalities and growing pressures on the health and care system have prompted questions about the role and responsibility of large public sector organisations in tackling the wider determinants of health. The population most impacted by health inequalities are often those most impacted by climate breakdown and poor air quality.
The NHS has signed up to be a net-zero health system by 2040, go to Greener NHS.
Our purpose in North Central London (NCL) is to improve outcomes and wellbeing, through delivering equality in health and care services for local people. Zoë Garbett with the NCL have developed a Green Plan to help us achieve this, see North Central London Green Plan 2022 – 2025.
