European Environment Agency (EEA), 2022

Preventing or mitigating climate change impacts on health in national policy can be tackled from the perspective of climate change adaptation, through public health policy, or numerous other policy topics, in particular those related to social care for vulnerable groups; living environment, as a buffer between climate hazards and people (housing, urban planning and design); and other. This report summarizes the investigation carried out into the EEA’s member and collaborating countries’ policies on climate change adaptation and national health strategies, as the key policy areas through which climate change impacts on health can be addressed.
