Research
Center members lead a diverse portfolio of research with a shared interest in documenting and minimizing the adverse health impacts of continued climate change. Our recent publications of note have provided new insights into the health dangers of heat, hurricanes, and wildfires, as well as the health co-benefits of climate actions. Explore the boxes below to learn more about our exciting and ongoing projects.
Research to Action
In addition to providing novel research in the areas of climate and health, the Center for Climate and Health places emphasis on translating research into concrete action. We promote collaboration outside the research community by holding panels across many sectors such as journalism, policy and activism. We have released two white papers informing the Biden-Harris transition team on the importance of focusing climate action on health and the need for enhanced environmental justice policy. Members of our group work within the community on mitigation and adaption efforts, and we continue to look for opportunities to see our research into progress.
