The World Health Organization announced that implementing six measures to address the health impacts of climate change could prevent 1.6 million deaths each year, generate $3.9 trillion in economic benefits, and bring governments $5.4 trillion in annual financial gains. Among the key measures outlined in the report are early-warning systems for heatwaves, improved water, sanitation and hygiene services, the adoption of clean household energy, and reforms to fossil-fuel pricing policies. These measures could reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 16.7 billion tonnes, while every dollar spent on early warnings of heat risks could yield a return of $835. The organization called on governments to make health protection a priority in their climate policies and negotiations.
