Lancet Countdown: Tracking Progress in Health and Climate Change is an international multidisciplinary collaboration that aims to monitor the relationship between public health and climate change. It brings together 35 academic institutions and United Nations agencies from all continents, based on the expertise of climatologists, engineers, economists, political scientists, public health professionals, and doctors. Every year, Lancet Countdown publishes an annual assessment of the state of climate change and human health, seeking to provide decision makers with access to high-quality evidence-based policy guidelines. As well as a policy recommendation in selected countries on the impact of climate change locally. This translation addresses the Brazilian political recommendation.
