The Health Emergency of Climate Change series brought together leading healthcare experts to discuss the impact climate change is having on human health. The 10-part series tackled specific topics including respiratory health, dermatology, cardiovascular health, mental health and sustainability and health systems, plus the new pandemic and other new epidemics, as well as lessons learned and looking ahead.
