Challenge Tips

Your Voice Carries Weight

Education is critical for climate action. As you learned on Day 4, your voice as a trusted nurse carries weight with patients, coworkers, communities, and policymakers. By educating others about how climate change impacts health, you can raise awareness and spur others to act.

Your Action for Today:

Mention one climate-health fact to a patient or peer today. For example:

• Talk to a patient about the risks of climate change that may affect them, including heat stroke, air pollution from wildfires, or mosquito-borne illnesses.
• Have a discussion with a coworker about the benefits of eco-friendly cleaning products in the home or setting up carpool groups.

Sharing your knowledge with others deepens your own commitment and motivation to make positive changes that help the planet.
