The Health Impact of Climate Change | Climate Project | Celebrating 10 Years of OER Project

Carbon emissions are changing the planet an alarming pace. Climate change will affect us all, but some people will suffer worse effects, and sooner. Climate inequality is playing out today in many places. Poorer nations—and poorer people within all nations—face higher risks. But other identities, including race, gender, age, class, (dis)ability, and indigenous status all play a role. Dr. Margot Brown argues that understanding these inequalities is critical as we try to reduce emissions and combat the effects of climate change.
