📺 LIVESTREAM | PROGRAM OVERVIEW
🌍 Healthy people exist only on a healthy planet.
Therefore, protecting human health and planetary health can be strong arguments for more ambitious climate protection efforts. The consequential health costs of the climate crisis, the costs of inaction, also play an important role here. Whether and how this can lead to more binding negotiation results in the context of COP28 will be the subject of discussion.
