WM Net Zero Project Launch

Join us to discover the WM-Net Zero initiative, a collaborative effort led by the University of Birmingham along with key regional stakeholders. This innovative project is developing a toolkit to assess the health and economic impacts of net zero policies, specifically focusing on air pollution as a determinant of health.Learn how this toolkit could enable policymakers and stakeholders to evaluate the potential health benefits and trade-offs of various net zero policy options compared to 'business as usual' scenarios. This powerful resource aims to guide the design of effective net zero policies that enhance air quality and public health while minimizing unintended consequences.Join us to be part of this crucial conversation and drive positive change in our West Midlands communities.
