We know about the rising temperatures. The floods and hurricanes, the diseases and the droughts. Now a new EPA studies is released that reiterates all of that, but it also makes the claim that the poor, elderly, and the young will suffer the most in terms of health care.
They won't have access to it, to treatment for climate-change related illness. And that, is another effect of global warming, the EPA says. So it is now, finally, a consideration amongst our policy-makers that the change occurring around the globe is going to affect who gets medical treatment and how. Katrina, anyone?
