Carbon pricing is a key component of current climate policy agendas. There are a variety of societal and health impacts from carbon pricing interventions (e.g.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: There have been many modelled studies of potential health co-benefits from actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but so far there have been no large-scale attempts to compare the magnitude of health and climate effects across sectors, countries, and study designs.
Methods: As part of the Pathfinder Initiative project an umbrella review of studies was done, and 26 previous reviews were identified with 57 primary studies included. Studies included in the review were required to have quantified changes in greenhouse gas emissions and health effects (or risk factors) from defined actions to reduce climate effects.
Article Synopsis
- The paper outlines a plan to assess the health benefits linked to climate change mitigation actions through an umbrella review of existing systematic reviews.
- It involves a comprehensive search across nine databases to collect and evaluate literature from various fields, using two independent reviewers to ensure quality and reliability.
- The findings aim to map the impacts of these actions on health and greenhouse gas reductions, highlighting effective strategies and gaps in current evidence.
