The UK Health Alliance on Climate Change brings together health professionals to advocate for just responses to the climate and ecological crisis, promote the health benefits that flow from those responses, and empower members and health professionals to make changes in their professional and personal lives to respond to the crisis.
Currently, 32 health organisations are members of the alliance. This includes a number of the UK royal colleges, specialist associations and societies, the Academy of Medical Sciences, the Royal Society of Medicine, the British Medical Association, the British Medical Journal and The Lancet. Our reach is shown in Figure 1.
