Climate Change and Health
Mitigation & Adaptation
PSR Arizona collaborates with other organizations to facilitate community wide planning/workshops/forums for education about and addressing climate change. We have City appointed PSR representation and participation as members of the City of Tucson’s Climate Change (Advisory) Committee that is charged with the responsibilities of developing a climate change mitigation and adaptation plan for the City of Tucson. In this role we emphasize the Health Effects of Climate Change and the critical role of public health.
We are available and are called to speak on the health effects of climate change and environmental toxins (including those produced by energy production and transportation) in various community and political forums.
