IPCRG and Climate Change

Introduction to IPCRG and Climate Change

IPCRG will work in partnership with organisations to help us and our networks achieve the "Triple Bottom Line" that takes account of the economic, environmental and social impact of our personal and organisational actions.   You will find links below and in the right-hand bar to organisations that offer advocacy and communications material and to our own editorial published in November 2021 in npj Primary Care Respiratory Medicine.  We featured a number of experts at our 11th World Conference, who looked at the current impact of global warming on respiratory health around the world, and continue to offer practical measures for our day to day lives, in the consultation, and as advocates for health.

In April 2023, IPCRG launched the Planetary Health Forum, an email discussion group in which colleagues with a shared interest in the impact of climate change can  share resources, publications and expertise and discuss future education and research initiatives or funding bids, please contact us. If you would like to participate, please projectsupport [at] ipcrg [dot] org (subject: IPCRG%20Planetary%20Health%20Forum) (get in touch) and we will introduce you to this growing community.
