Abstract:
Environment and health Amid uncertainties, doubts, and lack of courage, COP 27 ended by postponing many decisions to COP 28 next year. Positive is the decision to create a fund that will be made operative by COP28 on Losses and Damages for island states, the most fragile and vulnerable in the face of climate change. Also positive is the appointment of the first youth delegate of the COP chairmanship. In contrast, the goal of mobilizing $100 billion annually for climate finance was not met, and there was no breakthrough on exiting fossil fuels. Only 33 out of 200 states then submitted plans to implement national temperature reduction commitments. The text on human rights in climate change was deleted entirely, the only positive note being the recognition of the right to a healthy, clean and sustainable environment. Little or nothing has been done on biodiversity. That said, we have no choice but to do prevention with daily actions such as those represented by the flyer attached to this issue of Environment & Health News. These actions represent our contribution to system change and mitigation and adaptation processes. As in previous issues, the main articles published in the monitored journals are summarized here, among which numerous are precisely those related to air pollution. All articles and editorials deemed worthy of attention are listed divided by topic, with a brief commentary. This issue is based on systematic monitoring of the September and October 2022 publications. comment.
