Planetary Health Campaigns

Connecting individuals and organizations to global and local movements for Planetary Health.

As awareness grows of the profound links between environmental change and human health, communities and organizations are mobilizing campaigns that tackle some of the most pressing challenges of our time—air pollution, climate change, fossil fuel dependence, among others. Across sectors and geographies, there is an urgent need to scale efforts that both protect health and restore the natural systems we rely on. We invite our community to explore and engage with these campaigns, championing Planetary Health solutions that create healthier people and a more sustainable planet.

Join the Call ahead of COP30: Put Health at the Heart of Climate Action

The climate crisis is a health crisis. Every breath, every meal, every community depends on our environment.

Join the Healthy Planet Now initiative and Global Climate and Health Alliance (GCHA) in urging global leaders to put health at the heart of climate action in COP30 negotiations and NDC implementation. 

More than 150 organisations, experts and activists worldwide have signed the Health Planet Now Open Letter calling on governments and ministers to put health at the heart of climate action and raise the ambition on this critical policy intersection.

Check@air

Led by Planetary Health Alliance member Lovexair Foundation, Check@air is an easy online questionnaire that will help you receive a personalized assessment and determine the status of your respiratory condition.

You can also join the first user-friendly Global Health Map that reflects citizens’ lung health across communities. The map provides insights into both diagnosed and undiagnosed respiratory diseases and breathing conditions.

Break the Fossil Influence

The Global Climate & Health Alliance is leading the #BreakFossilFuelInfluence campaign, calling on health organizations to stop working with PR and ad agencies that also work for the fossil fuel industry.

Signing the Fossil-Free Health Communications commitment means your organisation is:

  • Expressing a clear intent to avoid future partnerships with agencies that work with fossil fuel companies.
  • Committing to ask new vendors about their fossil fuel ties in future procurement and RFP processes.
  • Taking a step – however gradual – toward integrity and climate accountability in communications.

Support Canada's National Action on Planetary Health

Canada’s healthcare system generates hundreds of thousands of tonnes of waste and contributes nearly 5% of Canada’s total greenhouse gas emissions, surpassing aviation and shipping combined.

On October 6, health professionals launched Canada’s first-ever National Day of Action on Planetary Health. Check out the resources below to supoort the Planetary Health community in Canada plan future actions.
