Some assert it's no big deal, but climate change is costing us more & more, & affecting the health of humans in an increasing number of ways too. A majority of medical schools are now making sure future doctors understand the threats & how to deal w/ them. bostonglobe.com/2023/01/20/m…

Harvard Medical School votes to embed climate change in its curriculum - The Boston Globe

Some 55 percent of US medical schools now teach students about the health effects of climate change, up from 27 percent in 2019.

Roller skating feels a lot like love and falling is a part of the process πŸ›ΌβœŒοΈvia @NPR #rollerskate npr.org/2022/11/14/112328106…

Roller skating feels a lot like love, and falling is just part of the process

I picked up skating as a coping mechanism after a year in my house and in my head. It gave me the gift of learning something new with my body, and a new perspective on how to move through the world.
