Meanwhile, Association of American Medical Colleges did a survey and found that 55% of medical schools reported that the health effects of climate change were a required topic in their courses.

While I don’t suffer from asthma, I know friends with children who do. I have seen direction that the use of inhalers are crucial for managing asthma effectively. They deliver medication directly to the lungs, providing faster relief and better control of symptoms.
Yet, in the quest to eliminate “greenhouse gases” based on climate crisis pseudoscience, they were targeted in a study by Stanford Health Care.
Dr. Jyothi Tirumalasetty, M.D., says research is zeroing in on propellants known as HFCs or hydrofluorocarbons. They push the medicine out of the inhaler in measured doses but can also escape into the atmosphere at alarming levels.
“These HFCs are hydrofluorocarbons and propellants, which now we know trap heat in the atmosphere thousands of times more powerfully than carbon dioxide and increase, you know, worse, global warming,” Tirumalasetty said.
