· Fora for liaison between local authority and NHS bodies
· Drawing out the long-term economic benefit of adaptions
· National policy constrained what town and country planning authorities could do
The Board resolved to:
1. Recognise the implications of climate change for health and the opportunities for improving health whilst reducing carbon emissions.
2. Note the highlighted constituent organisations priorities and actions on climate change and for all organisations to consider their role in climate change mitigation and adaptation.
3. Ensure climate change adaptation and mitigation measures consider impacts on health inequalities.
