HCN_Healthy_Fossil_Free_Society_Infographic_SP

This infographic by the Global Climate and Health Alliance outlines the health and societal benefits of transitioning to a fossil-free economy, focusing on healthy cities, clean energy access, and a sustainable economy.

• The transition to a fossil-free economy is linked to several health and environmental improvements, including the elimination of diseases associated with fossil fuel extraction and handling, cleaner air, water, and soil, and a reduction in the health impacts of environmental pollution.
• The vision for 'Healthy Fossil-Free Cities' includes the removal of fossil fuel energy and industry from city centers, the implementation of active transport for pedestrians and cyclists, and the use of urban nature to increase shade and ventilation to reduce heat stress.
• Access to clean and healthy energy is presented as a means to improve public health through clean cooking and indoor air, which reduces respiratory diseases and mortality, as well as providing energy for healthcare facilities, education, and income generation.
