UK Health Security Agency , 2023

The UK has committed to reaching net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050. Actions to reduce emissions will benefit health by averting some of the anticipated adverse health impacts from climate change and such actions will also have other positive impacts on health or co-benefits.
