Obviously something in the air (accidental pun), as the Faculty of Public Health now promoting its "Vision for the Public's Health" with recommendations to government including "Taking action on climate-related health harm". I'd have liked to have seen more explicit reference to #adaptation alongside #NetZero but at least it is implied. #ClimateChange #HealthInequalities #PublicHealth https://lnkd.in/eZTwgAei
Wrote this for the Faculty of Public Health a decade ago: #climatechange, #fuelpoverty, #healthinequalities ... and #housing. Since then, many London councils have declared a #ClimateEmergency and are taking action. But it's hard.

What is the impact of climate change on rural America and rural Pennsylvania? In some ways, rural folks are more vulnerable to climate change: has less access to health care, a higher percentage of outdoor workers, a lack of quality affordable housing, little or no public transportation options, & antiquated public infrastructure. These are all stressed further by climate change today & will be further stressed as temperatures rise & the impacts accelerate. In this issue of Pennsylvania Rural Health Magazine, Nate Wardle of the PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, Ruth McDermott-Levy, PhD, MPH, RN, FAAN of the Villanova University M. Louise Fitzpatrick College of Nursing & I (Penn State Sustainability) share our perspectives on climate change's far-reaching impacts for rural people. I shared that “[I]nvestment in rural health has to be coupled with investment in physical infrastructure and mitigation efforts in climate change. If we want to afford people a decent quality of life, their roads need to stay open, their power needs to stay on. Whether people say they’re vulnerable or not, they are vulnerable. We have a significant percentage of people aging-in-place here in rural Pennsylvania and we want them taken care of. It is incumbent on a society that wants to take care of itself that we pay for that.” Read on: https://lnkd.in/gr_sBJmH #health #publichealth #ruralhealth #pennsylvania #climatechange #climatechangesolutions #actonclimate #climateaction #pennstate #villanova #sdg3 #sdg13
