Persistence is powerful!
While federal climate action stalls, health professionals are securing wins at the local and state levels—from Georgia to California. At the same time, allies are driving change globally. #OPOH26
We’re in awe of these digital communication powerhouses! In a changing media landscape, we need to be where are patients are with relatable, accessible, and evidence-based messages. #OPOH26 @psr.org

A promotional graphic for the “Healthy Climate America” podcast episode titled “Caring Across Borders: Climate Migration and Health.” At the top is the Healthy Climate America logo with a stethoscope shaped like a plant. Below are two circular photos: on the left, the host, Lisa Patel, smiling in a white coat; on the right, guest Marysel Pagán Santana, smiling against a gray background. Soundwave graphics run horizontally behind the photos. At the bottom, text reads: “Caring Across Borders: Climate Migration and Health.” A green banner below says, “Listen now: bit.ly/HealthyClimateAmerica.”
#HealthyClimateAmerica Season 2 is here!
Marysel Pagán Santana joined us to break down who is impacted by climate migration, the risks they face, and how health professionals can understand and meet the needs of changing communities.

Breaking News: The EPA is allowing coal-burning power plants to release more heavy metals like mercury, a powerful neurotoxin linked to brain damage.
Climate change is threatening the future of winter sports. Warming temperatures have led to fewer freezing days and reduced snowfall, making the necessary conditions for the Winter Olympics increasingly rare.

Tonight we're joining @actonclimateus.bsky.social in Tampa at their Extreme Weather People's Hearing. In Florida, we've seen first-hand how extreme weather destroys lives and uproots communities. From extreme heat to hurricanes, climate change is intensifying weather across the state.
SEE YOU IN COURT: The Trump administration is trying to undercut the government’s ability to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change. We won’t let this stand.

This week, on February 18th we’ll be joining @actonclimateus.bsky.social in Tampa for the Extreme Weather People’s hearing. Floridians are particularly at risk from intensifying extreme weather like heat and hurricanes, and Trump's attacks on climate protections will only make the problems worse.
EPA's mission is to protect our health and environment; that includes protecting people from pollution and the deadly impacts of climate change. Trump's EPA is ignoring this mission and denying established climate science. This cannot stand. #ClimateCantWait

New #ClimateCheckup out today: The EPA Just Made Our Air Less Safe to Breathe
"The air our patients breathe should not make them sick, and policy choices should not make our jobs harder by increasing preventable disease." @lisapatel.bsky.social @medpagetoday.com
Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.
EPA's endless rollbacks treat us all as expendable, sacrificing our health for corporate profits. Repealing the endangerment finding will allow fossil fuel corporations to freely pollute without limit, causing devastating impacts to our health and climate. #ClimateCantWait

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has finalized its repeal of the endangerment finding and the rollback of climate emissions standards for light, medium and heavy-duty vehicles. By doing so, the EPA is rejecting settled law and science to benefit polluters.
Follow along for updates to the lawsuit, opportunities for action, and to support us so that we can continue our efforts to reinstate the Endangerment Finding. psr.org/endangerment...
Today, Trump's EPA officially made climate denial US policy. This is a slap in the face to Americans being battered by extreme weather, wildfires, droughts, and other climate disasters. We're suing the Trump Administration and Lee Zeldin's EPA for this illegal and reckless repeal. #ClimateCantWait
"Electric and gas utilities requested almost $31 billion worth of rate increases in 2025, according to an analysis by the energy policy nonprofit PowerLines. That’s more than double what utilities asked for just a year earlier." https://heatmap.news/sparks/powerlines-utility-rate-increase-2025
But here's the thing -- you can help stop it. Join us for our livestream discussion: Fueling Sickness on February 18 at 7:00 pm ET to find out how!

Dr. Surapaneni spent last summer driving across America confirming a terrifying truth: fossil fuels are poisoning us. From a 60-acre toxic lake in Texas to communities suffocating under pollution, she saw the crisis that is killing an estimated 350,000 Americans yearly. psr.org/event/livest...
EPA’s actions to put #PollutersFirst at the expense of our health is dangerous and will be deadly. Administrator Zeldin has abandoned his sworn duty and we must hold him accountable for his agenda. Sign onto this petition calling for his immediate resignation!

Severe winter storms, like the one that hit many parts of the US this weekend, put strain on the natural gas power system, leading to power outages and rapid price spikes. Dependence on unreliable fossil fuels is putting us at risk when these winter storms hit.

Energy demand is higher than ever and so are electricity prices. Trump and Congress' war on clean energy and worship of fossil fuels is driving prices up. Americans need to look no further than their own energy bills. We must say no to Trump’s #PollutersFirst agenda.
NEW: Public participation is key to improving the federal regulatory process.
Prior to the Trump administration, many federal agencies were making big strides in public outreach -- improving the effectiveness and responsiveness of rules.

Trump promised to reduce energy bills in his first year; his loyalty to climate denialism and misinformed policy choices are doing just the opposite. Energy bills are up and clean, affordable energy is down.
www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
A new report from @nrdc.org examines how state and local governments can minimize heat-related harms by:
🌡️ Appointing leaders empowered to oversee extreme heat planning and response
🌡️ Budgeting for extreme heat on an ongoing basis
🌡️ Planning for heat emergencies and longer-term heat resilience
Trump promise on utility bills: Down 50% in first year ⬇️
Trump reality on utility bills: Up 13% in first year ⬆️
Trump is trying to kill clean energy. The market has other plans.
Today marks one year of Trump’s presidency. It has been a disastrous period of anti-science and climate regressive policies, with more than 100 rollbacks and other harmful actions leading to substantial, measurable harms to the American people and the climate. #ClimateCan'tWait
