COP-28, the United Nations' Climate Change Conference, hosted by the United Arab Emirates, ended on 12 December 2023. At the convention, Australia released its National Health and Climate Strategy, committing to low-carbon, climate-responsive care. The Strategy will need new policies, projects and investments and a fit-for-purpose health workforce. This is a tall order considering healthcare's challenges. Everyone has a role, including clinicians, healthcare agencies, policymakers, politicians, patients and the providers and manufacturers in the supply chain. Clinicians' groups, policymakers and federal and state departments of health have an opportunity to lead climate change reform by considering climate change impacts across clinical practice and health policy.
COP-28，即由阿拉伯联合酋长国主办的联合国气候变化大会，于 2023 年 12 月 12 日闭幕。在此次大会上，澳大利亚发布了国家卫生与气候战略，承诺提供低碳、气候适应型的医疗服务。该战略需要新的政策、项目和投资，以及一支适合的医疗劳动力队伍。考虑到医疗保健所面临的挑战，这是一项艰巨的任务。每个人都有责任，包括临床医生、医疗保健机构、政策制定者、政客、患者以及供应链中的供应商和制造商。临床医生团体、政策制定者以及联邦和州卫生部门有机会通过考虑临床实践和卫生政策中的气候变化影响，引领气候变化改革。
