🔎World Lung Day 2023 Theme: Breath of Life: healthy lungs for all. We raise awareness of the importance of lung health and take action to ensure that everyone has access to the care they need, without social, financial or geographical exclusions. We call for the universal human right to breathe clean air. We leave no one behind!
🔎World Environmental Health Day 2023 Theme: Global Environmental Public Health: Standing up to protect everyone’s health each and every day. According to the World Health Organization, global environmental issues are behind more than 100 diseases. Public health strategy should be built on information, understanding the risks, and developing the resources to protect our health and the planet’s.
Within FairLife L.C.C.’s action to raise awareness for the environment and lungs’ health, Antonis Tsapatakis stated: “There is so much we can do for clean air, clean seas, lush forests! We must take our share of responsibility and play our part to save the environment. Healthier planet, healthier lungs!
Kiki Tsakaldimi stressed the value of individual and group effort towards a pollution-free environment: “The planet is in danger. So is our health! We need to act fast! . We take care of nature, we take care of life!”
“Earth is home. We have the right to clean air, to live in a world free of air pollution. It’s time to take the future into our own hands! ” stressed Eric Bell.
We would like to thank the Vouliagmeni Nautical Club for using its facilities and WASP studio for the video production.
