The Center for Health and the Global Environment at Harvard Medical School, the first such center at a medical school in the US, was founded in 1996 to study and help promote a wider understanding of the human health consequences of global environmental change. The Center is an official Collaborating Center of the UN Environmental Program and is one of the most trusted sources of information on this subject in the world.

 

The mission of the Center is to help people understand that our health, and that of our children, depends on the health of the environment, and that we must do everything we can to protect it.

Global Warning

In a three-month investigation, a team of Northwestern University student reporters found that the nation's security establishment is not adequately prepared for many of the environmental changes that are coming faster than predicted and that threaten to reshape demands made on the military and intelligence community. The Medill graduate student team published its finding in early 2011 with a series of print, video and interactive stories at Global-Warning.org.

Nourishing the Planet

Nourishing the Planet

The Nourishing the Planet project will assess the state of agricultural innovations—from cropping methods to irrigation technology to agricultural policy—with an emphasis on sustainability, diversity, and ecosystem health, as well as productivity. The project aims to both inform global efforts to eradicate hunger and raise the profile of these efforts. The project will also consider the institutional infrastructure needed by each of the approaches analyzed, suggesting what sort of companion investments are likely to determine success—from local seed banks to processing facilities, from pro-poor value chains to marketing bureaus.
