HGPI Senior Manager Mr. Joji Sugawara contributed an article to the Nikkei entitled “Healthcare Perspectives on the Global Warming Debate” that was published in the Personal Opinion and Insight column on November 22, 2022.
The 27th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP27) was held in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. Issues regarding the climate crisis and other environmental changes and health have been discussed at COP27. In 2023, the G7 Hiroshima Summit (May 19-21, 2023) is scheduled to be held. We hope that the Japanese government to lead the discussions in Japan and overseas while keeping in line with the global community, as signs of social and economic recovery from the COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) pandemic begin to emerge.
