This campaing focused on the 2016 federal election: Strong emissions reduction targets will help limit massive adverse impacts on human health, both in Australia and globally.
This 2019 federal election campaign asked supporters to contact their local candidates and either email or visit them to let them know that climate change is and will affect Australians health and that, conversely, climate action is a win for both people's health and in reducing the economic burden of ill-health associated with climate change.
The Climate and Health Alliance is promoting a new tool being rolled out internationally to help the health sector respond to its responsibility to reduce emissions and to minimise its environmental footprint to protect and promote health: Global Green and Health Hospitals Network.
This campaign called for net zero by no later than 2050: Australia needs to reach net zero emissions no later than 2050 and preferably sooner. A bipartisan and federally legislated net zero emissions by 2050 target is required in order to achieve this (which includes being on track by 2030).
The Australian Climate Dividend (ACD) is a policy framework designed to progressively reduce carbon- dioxide (CO2) emissions at the lowest economic and political cost.
