🌍 Explore the UEG Green Paper – Climate Change and Gastroenterology – a crucial resource for the gastroenterology community to address the health impacts of climate change and adopt sustainable practices. Healthcare contributes 4.4% of global carbon emissions, with endoscopy being a significant source of waste. This Green Paper, created by our National Societies Committee, focuses on key actions to: 🔹 Cut healthcare waste 🔹 Promote the Planetary Health Diet 🔹 Utilize digital health solutions Together, we can work towards a greener, healthier future! 🌱 🔗 Read the Green Paper in #UEGJ: https://bit.ly/3YpMNDP Authors: Marjolijn Duijvestein, Reena Sidhu, Katharina Zimmermann, Emma Carrington, Alexander Hann, Paula Cristina Sousa, Hugo Touw, Prof. Jeanin E van Hooft, MD, PhD, MBA, Martina Mueller-Schilling #myUEGcommunity

Nachiket Mor has been a trailblazer and his passion for public health is admirable. That explains why he defies ageing with his passion and commitment to a higher purpose. Yet, having been involved with World Council for Health since Covid depopulation genocide, there is a sinking feeling that this was unnecessary and sooner or later, its culprits will be brought to books. I suspect that Nachiket might have fallen into a well-laid trap by the OCGFC who are reluctant to work on checking hyperconsumption (A as Affluence / Consumption per capita) and Technology impact (T as Ecological impact of technology) before they agreed to crash the Population as part of the IPAT equation. This needs a serious course correction. I share a way forward in this talk at the WCH General Assembly here. https://lnkd.in/dwZyMSJH

Take the opportunity to read Chapter 1 of Oceans and Human Health: opportunities and impacts for free.

Soil health is often overlooked, yet it plays a crucial role in #climate #resilience, #foodsecurity, and #biodiversity. Engaging stakeholders from various fields—policy, research, and practice—can help create more comprehensive and impactful solutions. Events like the EUSO Stakeholders Forum are essential for promoting cross-sector collaboration and advancing knowledge to ensure sustainable soil management across Europe. It’s encouraging to see the EU Joint Research Centre taking such steps to prioritize soil health on the environmental agenda! European Environment Agency #JointResearchCenter European Commission
