Everyone is affected by this world’s climate. Unfortunately, it can affect some people more adversely than others. Usually, those people are not the ones who have made decisions or taken actions that have produced outcomes that negatively affect the environment, whether that be the air, water and in some cases the soil. Everyone has a role to play in ensuring that our environment is clean and healthy for all of us. Some simple actions that we can take include staying informed, providing and seeking out climate education, and planning. For some additional information about how you can act, review the resources developed by the APHA on climate action and equity. I have provided the fact sheet below, take some time and give it a look to see how you can get involved. Having a healthy climate will take all of us.
