Why Climate Change Matters in Healthcare: The Need to Advocate for Our Planet by Nathan Chiarlitti* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS)
It’s easy to feel unaware or disconnected to climate change in our Canadian society. Wildfires in Australia (2020) and California (2018) or floods in Indonesia (2019, 2020) and India (2017-2020) seem far from our borders and often slip into our unconscious after occupying short segments on the evening news. Most of our parents were born in an era where recycling and composting were minimally encouraged, o-zone damage was unexplored, and species extinction was largely unheard of. We’re now aware that fossil fuel consumption is bad for the environment, but the connection to our personal lives and the downstream effects it has on our healthcare system is less intuitive. With patient’s health and our future quality of life inevitably connected to climate change, having an awareness of our current actions and the consequences of our past actions is paramount.
