TRANSIÇÃO ENERGÉTICA JUSTA

This infographic outlines the health and socio-economic benefits of a just energy transition, focusing on the creation of a healthy fossil-free economy, healthy fossil-free cities, and access to clean and healthy energy.

• A healthy and fossil-free economy is characterized by the adoption of zero-carbon heavy construction (such as steel), inclusive decision-making in the energy system, and the provision of decent, healthy jobs in renewable energy. This transition aims to eliminate diseases caused by the handling of fossil fuels, reduce workplace accidents, and improve mental health.
• Healthy and fossil-free cities prioritize the removal of fossil fuel energy and industry from urban areas, the implementation of active transport (walking and cycling), and the expansion of urban parks for shade and cooling. These measures are intended to reduce asthma, lung diseases, and thermal stress, while promoting more active and healthy populations.
• Access to clean and healthy energy involves replacing diesel generators with renewable energy for agriculture, water supply, and food refrigeration, as well as implementing clean cooking methods and lighting. The expected health outcomes include reduced respiratory diseases and deaths, improved indoor air quality, better hygiene, and fewer domestic burns.
