    • This webinar is part 10 of the series Nursing on the Frontlines of the Climate Crisis: Education for Action, developed through a collaboration between the Global Consortium on Climate and Health Education, Nursing - Climate Resources for Health Education, the Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments, the Canadian Association of Nurses for the Environment, and Climate Action Nurses. This presentation discusses the intersection of climate change and health equity, focusing on the disproportionate impacts of climate-related health threats on vulnerable populations and strategies for advancing climate and environmental justice.

      Learning Objectives:

      1. Describe the concepts of climate justice and environmental justice.
      2. Identify social and environmental determinants of health that make individuals and communities more vulnerable to climate-related health threats (elderly, children, socioeconomically disadvantaged, homeless, immunocompromised patients, patients with chronic medical conditions/ Non-Communicable Diseases).
      3. Evaluate health inequities related to air pollution exposures in communities and populations with adverse health impacts from excessive exposure to air pollution and other environmental injustices.
