Feature: experts and SEI join in global call for a Covid-19 economic recovery linking health, climate, the environment and air pollution
The Scientific Advisory Panel of the Climate and Clean Air Coalition – which includes SEI Research Leader Johan C.I. Kuylenstierna – formally issued a call to the global scientific and policy community to work together to help the world recover from the Covid-19 crisis. Published by the International Journal of Public Health, the call urges economic stimulus efforts that make needed connections between health, air pollution, climate and the environment.
The commentary “Call for comments: climate and clean air responses to covid-19” issues a clarion call to the global scientific and policy community to come together to devise a pandemic economic recovery that addresses key world aims, including mitigating climate change and promoting sustainable development. The comment was signed by a group of 19 international scientific experts on air pollution and climate change. The authors include the members of the Scientific Advisory Panel of the Climate and Clean Air Coalition and four other invited experts. They represent 16 research institutions worldwide, including SEI, whose own work has clearly demonstrated the capacity of certain strategies to achieve multiple climate change and sustainable development goals.
