Climate change is a global public health crisis, but the impacts are not distributed equally. While work to mitigate climate change is essential, action must also be taken to accelerate resiliency and adaptation – especially in communities that are feeling the impacts of climate change today. This session, hosted by Johnson & Johnson, will bring together frontline healthcare workers, climate specialists and community advocates to discuss both the challenges and opportunities for climate change and health equity.
 
“We’re seeing that for the communities that were already stressed with resources, for the communities that were already struggling just to keep up with their day to day activities– now adding the barrier, now adding the burden of climate change on these communities– thats worsening what they’re experiencing.” – Dr. Bethany Carlos
