From the Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health’s (Harvard Chan C-CHANGE) landmark study showing coal impacting health at every stage of coal’s life cycle, to its research on toxics in gas stoves and the benefits of clean energy, to its educational programs reaching students around the world, the Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment has been translating innovative science from across Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health for over 25 years.
The Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment’s mission is to deliver solutions-based research and use education and outreach to shape climate actions that improve the health of its most vulnerable populations like children, seniors, and environmental justice communities.
By making climate change personal, highlighting solutions, and emphasizing the important role everyone plays in driving change, The Center for Climate, health, and the Global Environment helps decision makers understand the health consequences of the addiction to fossil fuels, put health and equity at the center of climate actions, and keep people safe by guiding the health care industry’s response to climate change.
