Fossil fuels are harming our health — right now.

Our new report, “Fueling Sickness: The Hidden Health Costs of Fossil Fuel Pollution,” reveals how coal, oil and methane gas cause direct health impacts at every stage of life. From the air we breathe to the water we drink, the damage is widespread.

From November 2nd to 4th, PSR delegates attended the 24th World Congress in Nagasaki, Japan. This meeting was momentous to hold in Nagasaki, being the last city bombed by a nuclear weapon 80 years ago.

PSR members and staff met with colleagues from around the world on urgent topics related to nuclear weapons and global security. We hosted and participated in workshops on divestment, track II diplomacy, climate, health as an imperative for nuclear disarmament, and more.

After spending the week with colleagues working on nuclear disarmament in dozens of countries and discussing the pathways towards nuclear abolition, we are energized to continue our work for peace and world without nuclear weapons.

Health professionals work hard to care for our patients in the face of extreme heat, but we can’t do it alone. To protect those we serve, we need strong leadership at the state level from our governors. With their partnership, we can advance policy solutions that keep everyone healthy and safe as temperatures rise.
