Greening up: Environmental sustainability in general practice
Climate change resulting from human activity presents an urgent, significant and growing threat to health worldwide.

Increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and the resulting increased heat, are altering the planetary systems of Earth, including ocean circulation, prevailing winds and cloud cover. (1) Increased carbon dioxide is considered the largest single contributor to humaninduced climate change.
