A fascinating @octopus.energy #EnergyTechSummit today harnessing clean renewable energy. Sadly, only the odd passing reference to health limited to reducing pollution (v important). Could we work together for next years event to promote the wider climate health crisis to accelerate clean energy?

Patients being treated in corridors is widespread, but it must not be normalised.
If you're having to deliver care in inappropriate settings, raising a concern with your employer will help protect you and your patients.

A gentle reminder that if we miss the 1.5°C target (and we certainly will), the next target is 1.51°C and not 2°C. We need to keep fighting.
Every tonne of CO₂ emitted makes the job of future CO₂ removal harder, and every 0.01°C of temperature increase makes the world more chaotic and dangerous.
