Where the action is - Community-led health and climate justice
The climate emergency is the most urgent issue facing humanity just now.
In this briefing, we make the links between community-led health and climate action. The effects of climate change – as with health and wellbeing – are distributed unfairly, and we cannot address health inequality and wider inequality without also addressing climate justice.
We also draw your attention to a new Communities Call for Climate Action that we urge all community organisations to sign up to.
It calls for the Scottish Government to do more to tackle climate change and to recognise and support the role of community organisations in making the major changes that are necessary.
