As a paediatrician I am very focussed on the importance of improving the wellbeing of children and their families. This is key to developing a resilient community and giving children the skills they will need to adapt to climate change.
We need to bring education and health care together to meet this challenge.

Approximately 5% of the UK carbon footprint is produced by the NHS, 5% of journeys are related to the NHS and 5% of the UK workforce is within the NHS. My talk will be joining the dots between health and education and how we all need to work together to create a positive vision of a healthy low carbon future.
