| contents | Climate and environmental changes exacerbate health disparities in pregnant people and their offspring. How can we protect women and their babies? Guillermina Girardi Andrew A. Bremer Birth Defects Research AbstractBackgroundThe effects of climate and environmental changes (CEC) are being felt globally and will worsen over the next decade unless significant changes are made on a global level. Climate change is having serious consequences for health, particularly for vulnerable women and their offspring and less resilient individuals in communities with socioeconomic inequalities. To protect human health from CEC effects, efforts need to be directed toward building resilience strategies. Building political and economic power, as well as directly addressing CEC‐related challenges, are critical components of climate resilience. Effective communication and tailored methods to engage women in preventive strategies are also necessary to ameliorate the deleterious effects of CEC on women's health. Furthermore, women from marginalized communities face more CEC‐associated challenges.ConclusionsTherefore, effective policies and programs targeting these at‐risk populations—are crucial to improve the overall state of global health. In closing, it is time to increase awareness of the effects of CECs on women's health and their transgenerational effects in order to ensure that all people, regardless of race, ethnicity, education and income are protected from the detrimental effects of CECs. 10.1002/bdr2.2313 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
