From floods across South and South-East Asia to toxic fire haze and typhoons battering East Asia, climate disasters are hitting millions.
Fossil fuels are supercharging the chaos: homes destroyed, harvests lost, communities cut off and blackouts leaving families without power.
Meanwhile, polluters cash in.
Make polluters PAY. Time to END the age of fossil fuels.

Extreme weather places a clear burden on the healthcare system. Heatwaves drive heatstroke, dehydration, and other health conditions; rising air pollution from haze causes respiratory conditions; floods & natural disasters cause injury while disrupting the day-to-day operations of hospitals & clinics.
Yet the costs of extreme weather extend far beyond healthcare
