Climate change is the defining health threat of the 21st century.



Georgia has unique vulnerabilities when it comes to climate change—it’s hot, has a history of air pollution problems, and includes a number 
of population-dense communities exposed to hurricanes and sea-level rise. That’s why the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University is investing in climate research, education, and action.

CLIMATE & HEALTH ACTIONABLE RESEARCH & TRANSLATION CENTER (CHART)

The CHART Center at Rollins School of Public Health aims to become a hub that will advance and translate research on climate risks to protect the health of under-resourced urban populations–looking specifically at heat-related illness in Atlanta.
