The climate crisis is a health crisis, specifically for our kids. The climate crisis is here and it is harming our health and the health of our children. In order to prevent the most catastrophic impacts of climate change we must stop burning fossil fuels and transition to clean, renewable energy as quickly as possible. Health professionals, especially pediatricians, must educate families and speak out about this crisis loudly and clearly. There is still time to prevent the most dire effects of climate change, but we must act now.
