Environmental Medicine Club
This organization aims to explore the mutual effects of environmental and human health on one another and their impact on the world at large. The club will include initiatives to spread awareness regarding the intersection of climate change and medicine and explore questions such as natural disasters have downstream impacts and affect patient care in unprecedented ways, how the medical industry contributes to climate change and pollution, how environmental concerns such as pollution affects noncommunicable diseases. As environmental issues and climate change intensify, their effects on human health will continue to grow. While these issues are intimately linked, they are under addressed so this club will seek to raise awareness of issues of how public health and environmental issues are linked and brainstorm solutions.
