The Coda community identified the Climate Emergency as the greatest threat to global health and we have good reason to be alarmed for both our patients and our children. There is good scientific evidence that the climate crisis could be catastrophic. The global healthcare community comprises over 60 million people and together we can make a difference. Global CO2 emissions continue to rise resulting in more energy trapped in our atmosphere and putting us on the verge of a tipping point. We must act now. We are all used to practising with a time imperative in healthcare, we know that “Time is muscle” for the heart and that “Time is brain” for stoke – In the case of the Climate Emergency… “”Time is Planet”! Part of the problem for governments is that Power, Wealth and Influence skew the discussions around the climate emergency and in some ways the Fossil Fuel Industry has employed similar tactics to those taken by the Tobacco Industry lobbyists. Lobbyists have tried to promote ‘Gas’ as a safer transition fuel as we move from ‘Coal-fire’ energy, but Gas too is a potential super-pollutant and completely unnecessary.
