Happy Black History Month! AoC honors our fellows whose research has advanced environmental justice in African American communities, as well as activists and scholars whose past work continues to inspire change. 🌟

As I say here, there is no scientific justification to revoke the engagement finding. In fact, over the last 15+ yrs, the evidence of how climate change affects our health has only grown. Higher risk of allergies, dementia, fertility, heart disease, and death: that’s what’s on the line. @nature.org
