Episode description

Join us this week to discuss a crucial yet often-overlooked topic: the impact of climate change on pregnant individuals! Delve into the history of climate change awareness, understand its far-reaching effects on our planet, and discover the specific health risks it poses to expectant mothers. We walk through increased risks of heat-related illnesses, infectious diseases, food insecurity, and air pollution, and how these challenges disproportionately affect marginalized communities. We hope this episode raises awareness for what we can do to protect maternal health in the face of a changing climate!!
