Making the Connection: Climate Changes Health

From the American Public Health Association: 

As the rates of allergies, asthma, and vector-borne diseases continue to rise, Americans are becoming more reliant on health professionals for information. Today, we know that these conditions may be adverse effects of climate change. We invite you to find out how climate impacts health, and what health professionals can do to care for and protect personal and community health.
