Please join us for a special meeting at 3 p.m. on Sunday, May 31  at the Traverse Area District Library entitled Climate Change: Effects on Health. This meeting is sponsored by MICCA (Michigan Clinicians for Climate Change) and will feature a presentation by Dr. Debra Hendrickson, physician and author of The Air They Breathe: A Pediatrician on the Front Line of Climate Change. Grand Traverse Humanists are co-sponsoring this event, along with the League of Women Voters and UUCGT. Our own Dr. Mark Elliott will be on a panel following Dr. Hendrickson’s presentation to lend his expertise to the cardiovascular effects of climate change.

Dr. Debra Hendrickson practices pediatric medicine in Reno, Nevada, and wrote her book after having to treat her pediatric patients for illnesses resulting from climate change.
