"Many strategies to reduce climate change have large, immediate health benefi ts, while others may pose health risks or tradeoffs. Examined systematically, a powerful new dimension of measures to address climate change emerges. WHO’s Health in the Green Economy series reviews the evidence about expected health impacts of climate change mitigation strategies for key economic sectors, both in terms of health “cobenefi ts” and risks. The aim is to identify important health co-benefi ts for health policy- makers, and integrate their consideration in the future policy review of climate change mitigation and sustainability measures. Opportunities for potential health and environment synergies are identifi ed here for the housing sector."
