*Alternative world health report calls for radical change*

*Global Health Watch 2: launch 16th October *
 Civil society organizations and scientists from around the world are
calling for 'a new development paradigm' to address the toxic combination of
climate change, growing poverty and inequality and poor health.
 The new report, Global Health Watch 2, says that unfair social and economic
