  Given the urgency of these issues, the government must outline plans to elevate the connection between antimicrobial resistance and climate as priority issues at #COP29. [Source]

  Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) remains one of the most pressing global health threats, and the recent update to the UK’s AMR strategy underscores its direct links with climate change, noting that low- and middle-income countries bear the greatest burden. [Source]

  Antimicrobial resistance remains one of the most pressing global health threats and climate change is making it worse. I wrote to the health secretary asking the government to leverage UK expertise on this matter at #COP29 and ensure we do our part to mitigate this global threat. https://x.com/DannyVet/status/1858120915344601194/photo/1 [Source]

• 14 Nov 2024: Parliamentary Speech

  Living in substandard housing is bad not only for physical health, but for the environment and carbon dioxide emissions. Last week, we discussed a huge programme to try to improve the housing of people living in poverty, because it is good for the environment and for people’s health. We should remember that the NHS spends about £1.5 billion a year dealing directly with issues, such as damp and cold, that have arisen from people living in poor and substandard housing, so the comorbidities are huge.

  Directly linked to that issue are buildings’ energy efficiency standards, which were reduced under the last Government. New builds should be net zero; they should be hugely energy-efficient. There is no excuse for any new house to have occupants who live in fuel poverty, and we should do everything we can to ensure that that does not happen.

  Although we are proud of our rich history, we are also a forward-looking community, keenly aware of our role in the world and our responsibility to the future. To that end, we are striving to become an official city of sanctuary for refugees, having welcomed so many from Ukraine and other areas of the world troubled by conflict. Organisations such as Winchester Action on Climate Crisis—WinACC—are also working tirelessly to ensure that Winchester plays our part in combating global climate change.

  Climate change, pandemics, antimicrobial resistance, and how we feed 8 billion people and give them energy sustainably—these are daunting challenges, but we must face them because they are existential threats to our civilisation. But they are also economic opportunities; the technology and expertise required to address them are opportunities for economic growth, and the UK has the potential to be a world leader in this area. No single country can address these issues alone, and to find lasting solutions, we need a united effort from Governments, research institutes, universities, scientists, engineers, businesses and tech start-ups worldwide. We have learned over the last few years that, whether dealing with pandemics or climate change, the human and economic costs are enormous when our political leaders ignore scientists and experts.
