climate change and health

 Indicates the chain of command for health and safety operation and identifies places and liabilities.

Crucial points
This report presents the findings of a check with the UK public commissioned by the Health Foundation and conducted by Ipsos MORI between 22 and 28 July 2021.

The results show that there's a high position of concern about the health impacts of climate change. But the NHS’s part as a major contributor to carbon emigrations isn't well recognised.

The net zero NHS ambition has the public’s backing. Still, addressing climate change is low down the public’s precedences for the NHS.

There's broad public support for a range of measures to reduce the NHS’s carbon footmark. But support falls for proffers that impact individual treatment opinions and care.
