to the 2017 APHA Meeting
"Creating the Healthiest Nation: Climate Changes Health"
November 4-8 | Georgia World Congress Center
Our health and climate are inextricably linked.
From polluted air quality to shrinking food and waters supplies, communities around the world are already experiencing climate change's harmful health impacts. Among those who are disproportionately vulnerable, the looming effects are becoming increasingly urgent and severe.
​
Climate justice is central to our work at the Public Health Institute to address the greatest public health threat of this century.
At this year's APHA meeting, "Creating the Healthiest Nation: Climate Changes Health," we hope our 30+ presentations, posters and special events on climate change, environmental health and many other topics will challenge you with new ideas, provide information to inform your work, and inspire you to connect with new partners.
​
Together we are building a healthier world.
