 The Health and Human Rights Approach to Greenhouse Gas Pollution
The project originated with Dr Peter Carter of British Columbia Canada in 2009, following James Hansen's public statement that the world was in a state of planetary emergency due to climate change impacts. 

He is a retired medically ​​trained doctor with a background in environmental health protection policy. 


Peter is published on global climate change science, climate change impacts, Arctic climate change, risk assessment ​​and biodiversity. 

He has presented at many ​​leading science and climate change conferences including twice at both the American Geophysical Union (AGU) conference and the European Geosciences Union (EGU) conference.

He manages several other unique climate impact dedicated sites​​

H​e is an IPCC expert reviewer. ​​


​The site as a web-based project was started as a response to the 2008 public statement by James Hansen that the world really had entered a state of climate ''planetary emergency," which he repeated in 2012.
