“Green economy” means quality of life.

Sustainability and environmental protection have positive effects in many respects:

Air pollution

The use of renewable energies and the reduction in fossil fuels contributes to fighting air pollution. Better air quality helps with fewer respiratory diseases and a general improvement in health.

Promotion of public transport

Sustainable transport systems are created through the expansion of local public transport. Thanks to cycle and pedestrian zones, air quality improves. People are more active and cardiovascular health is then improved.

Sustainable agriculture

Promotion for changing from conventional agriculture to sustainable, organic farming is important. The use of natural fertilisers and natural pest control methods lead to healthier food without harmful residues. This contributes to healthy nutrition and the prevention of diet-related diseases.

Conclusion

Promoting renewable energies offers both environmental protection and health benefits. Reducing the use of fossil fuels reduces the health burden of air pollution. The risk of associated cardiac and respiratory diseases then declines.

Green economies focus on energy-efficient construction and improving the efficiency of existing buildings. Well-insulated buildings and energy-efficient appliances for everyday use reduce energy consumption. Energy costs can also be reduced, and indoor air quality can be improved.

The transition to a circular economy is another vital contribution to reducing pollution. Targeted waste management helps to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals and improves public health.

The protection of ecosystems and biodiversity increases the quality of the natural environment, improves general access to green spaces, and has positive effects on mental health.

A sustainable future thanks to the full integration of the “green economy” and corresponding health promotion

Clean drinking water, nature reserves and recreational areas

Water quality improves with the protection and restoration of ecosystems. Clean drinking water is, in turn, a prerequisite for the health of people, flora and fauna.

Natural environments and ecosystems are protected and preserved. Nature reserves and recreational areas provide access to green spaces, parks, and nature reserves. This positively affects mental health and general well-being.

Improved consumer protection and sustainable urban planning

A green economy promotes transparency and product labelling. Strict environmental regulations allow consumers to determine products' quality and safety better. This reduces the risks of harmful exposure.

The planning of “green cities” with bicycle and pedestrian zones and parks promote an active lifestyle. It makes a significant contribution to reducing environmental impacts. Fewer stress-related illnesses and a higher quality of life improve life in the city.
