HEAL together with representatives from the medical, scientific, and civil society sectors, is calling on policymakers in Poland to develop a national action plan to reduce the health impacts of harmful chemicals and to support the revision of EU regulations. The appeal was presented on 10 June in Warsaw during the International Conference Preventing Disease by Reducing Exposure to Harmful Chemicals, held under the patronage of the Polish Presidency of the Council of the EU, the Polish Minister of Health, and the President of the Polish Supreme Medical Council.
Today, 3 May 2024, the EU has used up nature’s budget for the entire year.
With just one month until the EU elections, we appeal to you to make a top political
priority of the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and
pollution given the devastating impacts and growing intensity and frequency of
climate-related events for health, ecosystems, economies, social justice and
cohesion.
