Yet standard health care practices are more concerned with short-term outcomes than long-term sustainability. Every resource used to deliver medical care, from IV tubes to antibiotics to electricity, has a significant environmental impact. This raises an urgent ethical dilemma: in striving to improve the health outcomes of individual patients, are we damaging human health on a global scale?

Een revolutionaire kijk op de geschiedenis van klimaatverandering door Peter Frankopan. Wanneer we het over de wereldgeschiedenis hebben, denken we doorgaans niet meteen aan de zwaarste overstromingen, de hardnekkigste droogteperiodes of de veranderende ecosystemen. Maar in de lange geschiedenis van onze planeet is geen element zo allesbepalend geweest als de natuur. Vulkaanuitbarstingen, aardverschuivingen, klimaatveranderingen en andere transformaties hebben een cruciale rol gespeeld in het verloop van de geschiedenis – en zullen ook in de toekomst allesbepalend zijn.

With increasing urgency, five subsequent reports declared those problems were all getting worse, each calling for immediate action to protect our future.
