Pathways to a healthy net zero future: report of the Lancet Pathfinder Commission

The Lancet Pathfinder Commission report provides a comprehensive review of modelled and empirical evidence on the health co-benefits of climate action. The report shares findings from an umbrella review (analysis of systematic reviews) on the impact of climate mitigation actions on both greenhouse gas emissions reductions and health, highlighting the potential to prevent millions of premature deaths worldwide each year through climate action. Read the Commission report for the findings in full, or the summary, both available on the Pathfinder Initiative evidence bank website.

Health benefits are linked to the benefits of climate action for air pollution, water quality, physical activity (particularly to increase walking and cycling), food security, diet, livelihoods, healthcare, flood mitigation, trauma and thermal comfort – follow the links for advice on implementing relevant actions. The report’s headlines are captured in the graphics below.
