Description
Qiyong Liu wrote a 2023 editorial on the United Nations climate talks held in Dubai at the end of 2023, known as COP28. The talks came in a year of record heat and wide extreme weather. Liu stresses that this round put health near the centre of the climate agenda for the first time.
He urges China to treat climate action as health action. Groups at most risk include the old, pregnant women, and people with heart or lung disease. China's adaptation plan through 2035 sets out steps to shield them. Liu also calls for checks on how climate policies affect health at home. The piece frames the talks as a chance to speed up work on both crises at once.
