It's not too late to join us virtually this morning at 9:30 a.m. ET! ??
For more reasons than I can name, I am looking forward to seeing so many from the Climate and health community this weekend. For anyone not registered, there is still time to attend virtually! I can't guarantee that the chance to hear from Robert McLean, Emily (Emmie) Mediate, Elizabeth Schenk, and Neelu Tummala is worth admission on its own. . . but I certainly would argue it. https://lnkd.in/eA-MpmZB
