The Medical Society Consortium on Climate & Health
Organization: The Medical Society Consortium on Climate and Health
The “Climate Health Advocacy Resources for Patients” page by the Medical Society Consortium on Climate and Health provides a curated collection of tools and information to empower patients to understand and act on the health impacts of climate change. Developed in collaboration with leading U.S. medical organizations, these resources are tailored for public use, offering science-based guidance on how environmental changes—such as extreme heat, air pollution, and severe weather—can affect personal and community health.
The page includes fact sheets, toolkits, and educational materials designed to raise awareness about climate-related health risks and promote climate-smart behaviors. Patients can learn how to protect themselves and their families during climate-related emergencies, reduce health risks related to heat and air quality, and support broader advocacy efforts for healthier, more resilient communities.
Whether you’re seeking to learn more about how climate change affects your health or looking for practical steps to take action, this resource hub makes complex topics accessible. It encourages engagement, preparedness, and collective responsibility by putting vital information in the hands of those most affected—patients, families, and caregivers. This is an essential destination for climate health literacy and empowerment.
