Climate Justice and Health: Reconnecting Human, Ecological, and Planetary Well-Being
Manoj Kurian, Gracia Violeta Ross
Abstract
Climate justice is a public health imperative because human well-being is inseparable from ecological integrity, planetary stability and social equity. Drawing on Planetary Health and One Health, the article links human, animal and ecosystem health and calls for systemic responses integrating decarbonization, ecological restoration, public health, just economic structures and community resilience.
