With the approach of Thanksgiving, our new resources on aging, equity, and climate change feel more relevant than ever. As multigenerational gatherings take place across the country, Thanksgiving and the holiday season is a time that people celebrate older family members. Yet, especially with COVID and other diseases still strongly affecting our communities, Thanksgiving also leads us to reflect on vulnerabilities that older adults in our lives may be facing.

These new resources on aging look closely at how climate threats affect older adults, how those risks are amplified based on race and other factors, and the many policy solutions that let us build stronger, safer, healthier communities for all of us. Read our full newsletter for more about these resources, new research on children’s toxic exposures, climate equity jobs, and other things that have caught our interest!
