A new article was published in Science Direct detailing the Climate ECHO program, which was formed in February 2021 to train health professionals on how to communicate the health-related effects of climate change. The program’s objectives include increasing knowledge and self-efficacy of climate change, improving communication among clinicians, community health workers, and patients regarding the health-related effects of climate change. The Climate ECHO programme has grown to engage more than 4000 unique participants from all 50 US states and more than 45 countries.
