Why should you use antimicrobials like #antibiotics and antifungals the right way?
Since 2015, World #AntimicrobialResistance Awareness Week has raised awareness on antibiotic resistance, urging responsible antimicrobial use.
ALT Antibiotics aren't always the answer. Many everyday infections get better on their own. Taking antibiotics, without a health worker's advice, makes them less effective when we really need them.
ALT Protect your health, not just today. Taking antibiotics when you don't need them can lead to resistance and side effects. Follow your qualified health professional's advice

The new @UNEP #EmissionsGap Report is clear & uncompromising:
Current #ClimateAction commitments still point to climate breakdown.
The upcoming #COP30 Climate Conference must be the turning point where the world delivers a bold & credible response plan.

New national climate plans have barely moved the needle on limiting global warming. Yet there is hope.
According to UNEP's latest #EmissionsGap Report, accelerated adoption of renewable energy and falling costs mean we have the tools to cut emissions now: unep.org/news-and-stories/pr…
