As a student nurse and future health care leader of America, I recognize the correlation between climate change and human health. The focus of nursing education at my institution is holistic practice that includes patient-centered care, health promotion, and education regardless of nursing specialization.None of us want to leave the next generation with epidemic asthma and respiratory illnesses, more heat strokes, and expanded ranges of dangerous insect- and water-borne diseases. Unfortunately, that is exactly what climate change is causing today, and the problem will only get worse unless policy makers and healthcare providers like nurses act now together to drastically cut the pollution fueling the problem.
The risks climate change poses to public health have been well-documented. Increased temperatures are spreading insect-borne diseases to new areas. Heat waves will likely cause more deaths across the world. Warmer temperatures and increased prevalence of drought threaten to reduce crop yields and lead to food insecurity and water shortages. Extreme weather events, coupled with sea-level rise, will threaten low-lying cities globally. Detailing these impacts in 2009, The Lancet, one of the world’s most respected medical journals, labeled climate change “the biggest global health threat of the 21st Century.” Based on these facts, policy addressing climate change be a national priority. That’s why I enthusiastically support the Clean Power Plan to limit carbon pollution from power plants, which account for nearly 40 percent of U.S. carbon pollution, more than any other single source. Moreover, action to limit carbon will also help reduce levels of health-threatening soot and smog, making our air healthier to breathe.
Keeping the public's health as the highest priority requires not only outlining of appropriate policy changes but also identification of clean energy sources. This means an emphasis on clean, renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, along with energy efficiency over natural gas and nuclear power. Natural gas production and use, especially horizontal hydraulic fracturing, is associated with local and regional air pollution,, adverse birth outcomes, and contamination of drinking water. It also contributes to climate change, as methane leaks along the natural gas route to market could currently be large enough to eliminate any climate advantage over coal. Nuclear power creates radioactive wastes whose dangerous byproducts persist for thousands of years. Expanding renewable energy and investing in energy efficiency are the best ways to reduce the need for polluting energy sources and secure a safer, healthier future for our country and the entire world.
I look forward to a future career as a nurse that includes promoting and protecting the health and well-being of the nation. I hope to count on the continued political support of healthier air quality and sustainable, environmentally- friendly sources through the Clean Power Plan. I urge you to support the Clean Power Plan as well.
Sincerely,
Ana Paola White, President of NSANYS
