SUMMARY:Climate Change\, Health\, and Justice: A Workshop on Community-Engaged Research to Promote Health Equity
DESCRIPTION:The Fifth National Climate Assessment (2023)\, the U.S. government’s preeminent report on climate change impacts\, risks\, and responses\, outlined three key conclusions related to climate change and health: \n\nClimate change is harming human health.\nSystemic racism and discrimination exacerbate climate impacts on human health.\nTimely\, effective\, and culturally appropriate adaptation and mitigation actions to protect human health are needed.\n\nWith this clear roadmap\, it is critical to stimulate intervention research to help people and communities from U.S. populations experiencing health disparities adapt to climate change. \nThis workshop examines the state of the science to stimulate community-engaged\, multi-level intervention research on this topic. The event convenes researchers\, clinicians\, and community partners for a series of presentations\, panel discussions\, and flash talks to: \n\nHear varied perspectives on innovations to decrease health disparities associated with climate change.\nIdentify mechanisms and processes required for successful multi-level interventions that strengthen resilience and adaptation to health effects from climate change.\nIdentify research gaps and opportunities to promote climate justice through community-engaged research.\nStrategize future research directions.\n\nThe workshop will be a half day over two days and virtual.   Register here.

SUMMARY:Navigating Pregnancy and Children's Health as our Climate Warms
DESCRIPTION:The summer of 2023 was Earth’s hottest since global records began in 1880 and projections for 2024 are for the trend to continue with temperatures to be among the 10 hottest summers on record. Climate change has been a driver of hotter summers. Extreme and consistent heat has health impacts on everyone\, but children and pregnant people have unique risks. \nThis webinar will delve into the physiological impact of heat on children and pregnant people\, focusing on particularly vulnerable populations. The presenters will also share some tips for keeping vulnerable populations and others safer on days that are dangerously hot. \n\nLearning Objectives\n\nIdentify the physiological impact of heat.\nState population vulnerabilities to heat related illness.\nDescribe three actions to reduce the health risks of heat.\n\n\nPresenters\nDaniel J. Smith\, PhD\, AGPCNP-BC\, CNE\, Assistant Professor\, Villanova University M. Louise Fitzpatrick College of Nursing is a doctorally prepared nurse practitioner and was a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Future of Nursing Scholar. His overarching research interest lies at the intersection of understanding the effects of climate change on the health outcomes of disenfranchised populations and how we can build climate resilience and adaptation skills in communities & health systems. He also has expertise on the environmental determinants of health and has been the academic lead for community-based participatory research projects examining the impact of the lead exposure of immigrant families in Philadelphia\, PA\, and heat exposure on migrant farmworker families in Southeastern Georgia. He continues to hold a clinical practice one day per week and is fluent in Spanish. \nKatie Huffling\, DNP\, RN\, CNM\, FAAN is a Certified Nurse-Midwife and the Executive Director of the Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments (ANHE). With ANHE\, Dr. Huffling works with nurses and nursing organizations to elevate environmental health issues\, such as climate change\, toxic chemicals\, and sustainability in healthcare\, amongst the nursing profession. Dr. Huffling is a passionate supporter of nurse-led advocacy in support of healthier environments for all. \nDr. Huffling received her DNP in Health Innovation and Leadership from the University of Minnesota. She is an appointed member of the US Environmental Protection Agency Children’s Health Protection Advisory Council and is a member of the National Academy of Medicine’s Action Collaborative on Decarbonizing the U.S. Health Sector.

SUMMARY:State Policy Showcase: Reducing Exposure to Lead in Schools and Child Care Centers’ Drinking Water
DESCRIPTION:No level of lead in drinking water is safe\, especially for growing kids. Alexandra Simon\, Public Health Advocate with CoPIRG\, and Cyndi Roper\, Senior Policy Advocate with Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC)\, will discuss policies in both Colorado and Michigan designed to help protect children from exposure to lead in drinking water at schools and child care facilities. \nAlexandra will dive into Colorado’s 2022 “Clean Water In Schools And Child Care Centers” law\, which requires some schools\, child care centers\, and family child care homes to test for lead in their drinking water and remediate if 5ppb or more is found. Cyndi will focus on Michigan’s landmark 2023 “Filter First” law. The Michigan law establishes that schools and child care facilities must install filters at drinking and cooking water outlets to proactively remove any lead contamination that may exist\, and also test the water for lead after the filters have been installed. You’ll learn about the “nuts and bolts” of these policies\, why these measures help protect children’s health\, and what steps were taken to advocate for these protections.  \nFollowing these case studies\, we’ll open up the discussion for participants to ask questions\, share insights\, discuss barriers and roadblocks\, find windows of opportunity and coalitions to build\, as well as other strategies needed to successfully address lead exposure for children.

SUMMARY:Community health impacts of air pollution in the US
DESCRIPTION:Join the Climate Equity Initiative at Clean Air Task Force (CATF) for our sixth report launch\, Community Health Impacts of Air Pollution in the U.S. \nAccording to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences\, air pollution is “a major threat to global health and prosperity. Exposure to air pollution is responsible for a variety of adverse health consequences. For example\, it can lead to damage to respiratory and cardiovascular systems\, premature mortality\, worsened mental health\, impaired neural function\, increased cancer risk\, decreased fertility\, weakened immune systems\, and harm to pregnancies. Air pollution\, in all forms\, is responsible for more than 6.5 million deaths each year globally.” \nDespite the benefits of the Clean Air Act\, many Americans experience unhealthy levels of air pollution in the United States. While the Clean Air Act has significantly reduced air pollution\, there are: \n\nAreas in the U.S. where air pollution exceeds legal limits under the Clean Air Act;\nConsiderations that some of the legal standards should be more stringent; and\nSignificant exposure disparities\, especially related to people of color and low-income communities.\n\nThis report identifies the largest sources of air pollution in the U.S.\, describes the health impacts of air pollution\, and is followed by a summary of air emissions from the energy and transportation sectors. In addition\, the report provides an overview of the Clean Air Act\, including a description of some of its key programs and the pollutants regulated under the act\, and discusses the successes of the Clean Air Act in improving air quality nationwide\, while recognizing that disenfranchised and underserved communities bear a disproportionate share of the continuing burden of air pollution.
