Over 200 health journals have issued a joint statement calling on the United Nations, political leaders, and health professionals to recognize that climate change and biodiversity loss are interconnected crises that must be addressed together. The statement emphasizes that the current approach of treating these issues separately is a dangerous mistake. The impacts of these crises on human health are significant and include disruptions to social and economic systems, shortages of land, shelter, food, and water, and the spread of infectious diseases. The health community must advocate for the restoration of biodiversity and the mitigation of climate change, and political leaders must recognize the severe threats to health and the potential benefits of addressing these crises.
