Dr Cheryl Holder: Look Around, You Can't Deny Climate Change is Happening
"...because there is no way you can deny that we need cleaner air, that we need clean water, we need to address our infrastructure, you cannot deny it and just leave it as a prescription— that’s just not good medicine”
Internist Dr Cheryl Holder is an HIV treater, Interim Associate Dean of Diversity, Equity, Inclusivity, and Community Initiatives at the Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine, and co-chair of Florida Clinicians for Climate Action. She chronicles her journey to becoming a physician, how her eyes were opened to the climate crisis through her patients in the community health center, and how clinicians can incorporate climate advocacy in the clinic and beyond.
Listen to her TED Talk "The Link Between Climate Change, Health, and Poverty."
