We’ve been talking about the climate crisis for years, and we know the stakes are high. The challenge now is turning what we know into action, and doing it quickly enough to make a difference.
That was a key focus of the Global Tipping Points Conference 2026, which recently wrapped up in Malaysia with a call for action across governments, businesses, researchers and communities.
What should we expect from the conference’s outcomes, where does Asia go from here, and what can the latest evidence on climate change and health tell us about the urgency of the task?
To help us explore all this, BFM is joined by Professor Jemilah Mahmood, the executive director of the Sunway Centre for Planetary Health at Sunway University. They will also look at the latest Lancet Countdown report and what its findings mean for our health, and the action needed to protect it.
