Around the Table With Climate & Health Champions: "Populations & Communities"
The Around the Table series of events, hosted by NYAM President, Dr. Ann Kurth in conversation with climate and health champions, focuses on and demonstrates the connection between our climate and our health. Our second event, "Populations & Communities", will focus on highlighting the impacts of global heating on structurally marginalized communities – often affected ‘first and worst’; including related population health impacts such as increased levels of illness (e.g. asthma) amongst children, the loss of housing to catastrophic weather, the effect of heat waves on aging populations; and the need to address climate justice as we work towards health equity.
This is a virtual event. Login information with be included in your confirmation email.
The event is free; a donation of $15 is suggested.
