This document discusses the interconnectedness of planetary and public health. It provides examples of negative feedback loops between environmental issues like ocean acidification, loss of habitats, and climate change that exacerbate one another. These issues in turn impact public health by reducing food supply, increasing conflicts over resources, and causing climate refugees. The document advocates thinking globally and acting locally to address these challenges. It offers examples of local initiatives that promote renewable energy, active transportation, urban agriculture, and green spaces to improve health and the environment.
