What does Climate Change Have to Do With Health Care?
What health scientists are telling us is that climate change will bring increased asthma, more virulent allergens, medical emergencies from heat stress, the spread of water- and vector-borne diseases and increased severe weather events. The Lancet, Britain’s premier health journal, calls climate change “the biggest global health threat of the 21st century.”
Reinventing Business as Usual
Our aim is to stretch the horizons and ambitions of business leaders across the Global C-Suite—the constellation of around 1,100 companies worldwide that now control around half the world’s market capitalization. And to encourage them to put their shoulders to the great wheel of social and environmental change.
