On 26 May, the EU funded research project ENBEL (Enhancing Belmont Research Action to support EU policy making on climate change and health), of which HEAL is a partner, organises an event entitled Novel climate change and health research.
“With today’s report on air quality, Parliamentarians show they are ready to act on the urgent call from people across Europe and the scientific community. The next step is for the European Commission to propose a full alignment of EU air quality standards with WHO guidelines and the latest science. Disease prevention cannot wait: we need all decision-makers on board, especially national governments, to swiftly reduce pollution everywhere and protect every single person, especially those most vulnerable.”
Sophie Perroud, Policy Coordinator at the Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL)
