Climate change, as a result of global warming, inherently threatens human health. The visible changes in temperature and precipitation and thereby more frequent extreme weather conditions affect human health unmistakably. (Watts et al., 2018) Global healthcare has an environmental impact that varies between 1-5% of the total impact worldwide. (Lenzen et al., 2020) For some national impacts this accounts for more than 5%, even increasing to 11% of the total national environmental impact. Therefore, the paradox is, that healthcare is partly responsible for the negative effects on public health through, among other things, CO 2 emissions and depletion of raw materials (Eckelman and Sherman, 2018).
