CHN and Climate Change Adaptation
Ideas of Humans and Nature, Resiliency and the Ethics of Public Health Preparedness and Adaptation to Climate ChangeOctober 9th, 2009
CHN Director of Bioethics, Bruce Jennings, spearheads the sustainability initiative for the village of Hastings-on-Hudson as an elected trustee of the village. Jennings recently attended the EPA conference on Climate Change and Local Communities which connected the global and the regional interests of CHN’’s work in New York. At this conference, held at Pace University in White Plains, NY on October 8, 2009, officials from the regional office of the EPA joined New York state and local officials in discussing local climate change mitigation strategies. Jennings is currently conducting research on ethical issues related to climate change as part of CHN’s project: Ethics of Public Health Preparedness and Adaptation to Climate Change.
