Climate and environmental changes are unequally affecting populations around the world. The triple planetary crisis is an unequal global health crisis as well. In this scenario, how can health equity be achieved amidst the triple planetary crisis?

In the comment “Rising health inequities require looking beyond health systems” published in Nature Human Behaviour, scientists are addressing this significant question.

This publication is the result of a collaboration within Heidelberg University’s Flagship Initiative Climate-Life-Nexus, which aims to advance interdisciplinary research on the interconnected challenges of climate change and health. This article summarises key arguments and takeaways from the comment.
