Climate change’s threats to human health and life are growing. Will you join our latest effort to roll back climate change?
I became involved with PSR during my first year of medical school because I was impressed by it’s dedication to environmental health advocacy and peace work. The health/medical voice is a crucial part of the current environmental and peace movement, and PSR does a wonderful job with education, outreach, and policy work. I have continued to be part of PSR (and will continue to be part of PSR throughout my career) because I strongly support their vision and actions.
