At iClimate Aarhus University annual meeting, I spoke about the human face of #ClimateChange. It is already shaping how we live, breathe, & feel. By 2050, the effects on #health will be even more profound. The question we must ask is whether health becomes the casualty or the compass of that shift.

On #WorldCOPDDay, let us confront a harsh reality: #COPD causes 3.2M deaths yearly, with 90% in low- & middle-income countries. Air pollution, smoking, and lack of healthcare access make it worse. Together, we can fight for cleaner air, stronger healthcare systems, and healthier lungs. 🌬️🫁
