New Resource Elucidates Climate Change Impact on Health and Health Care

A just-published resource in the New England Journal of Medicine  contains an excellent interactive resource on how the climate crisis is impacting health care and health care systems, and what health care providers can be doing about it. It was created by Caren Solomon at the New England Journal of Medicine, with Renee Salas, the NEJM Perspective editor, and the NEJM Art team.

The resource, which brings together a large amount of carefully curated material, makes it  easy to access, and  fun to use. Click on the Figures/media tab to listen to the interview.

This resource was brought to MMA staff's attention by MMA member Paul Potvin, MD.
