Join medical doctors Rob and Lori Byron to explore the health impacts of climate policy. Their webinar highlights research that the Energy Innovation Act could save 4.5 million American lives over 50 years by reducing pollution. Poor air quality currently causes 1 in 10 American deaths and sickens thousands.

Increasing greenhouse gas concentrations cause severe health consequences. Toxic pollutants disproportionately affect vulnerable populations: children, the elderly, frontline communities, and those with asthma or cardiovascular disease.

Despite scientific consensus on human-caused climate change, political rhetoric, such as President-elect Trump's "hoax" claim, emboldens denial. This fuels public anxiety over potential fossil fuel expansion and the reversal of climate progress, a significant shift from past bipartisan support.

Join us for an informative look at how climate change became so divisive. Climate scientist Michael Mann and cartoonist Tom Toles offer a satirical perspective, while science journalist Cristine Russell discusses the politicization of science. Psychologist Renee Lertzman explores the psychology of denial, aiming to foster common ground and solutions.
