Climate change is one of the most powerful forces shaping our world today. With an uptick in extreme weather events, it’s time to focus on how to adapt to this new normal from a public health perspective. Senior Producer Teresa Carey speaks with Dr. Georges C. Benjamin about the health impacts of climate change and how people can support their communities during climate events. Then, host Dr. Samantha Yammine explores two new studies: one that may provide a welcome treatment for those suffering from vision loss, and the other that explores just how much energy our bodies are able to expend when we exercise.
