Climate change disproportionately affects marginalized communities and causes health inequities. These groups are often at the frontline of climate-related health issues, experiencing disproportionate rates of ailments like allergies, asthma, and mental health challenges due to environmental factors. How can we ensure that efforts to combat climate change also address these inequalities? Share your thoughts on the climate justice and health equity, and what steps can be taken to promote a more equitable future for all individuals. Provide personal experiences or examples of someone you know that was impacted by climate change and health inequities.
