Biden Launches HHS Office to Address Climate Change as a Public Health ThreatPenny Starr 30 Aug 2021
Despite crises at the border and in Afghanistan, the Biden administration is busy expanding the federal government as the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced on Monday the creation of a new office tasked with treating so-called climate change as a public health threat.
The Office of Climate Change and Health Equity will operate around social justice ideology that claims people who are a minority or poor are hurt more by the changing weather.
Biden issued a massive executive order seven days after being sworn in as president, that included creating the Office of Climate Change and Health Equity, “to address the impact of climate change on the health of the American people; and establish an Interagency Working Group to decrease risk of climate change to children, the elderly, people with disabilities, and the vulnerable.”
“Its mission is to protect the health of people experiencing a disproportionate share of climate impacts and health inequities from wildfires to drought, to hurricanes to floods,” HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra said at a press conference Monday.
