This chapter examines how PPCPs are often termed as micropollutants or trace organics, as these compounds are present in the µg/L range in the environment. PPCPs may pose a serious threat to aquatic life, having acute and chronic toxicity responses. As a result, there is a need for evolving technologies to detect, identify, and remediate compounds from these micropollutants.
This study ties to all of the goals affected by climate change and health, including Goals 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, and 13, by investigating which methods by advocates work best to garner support for effective actions on climate change.

A study to evaluate medical student perceptions on the intersection of climate change and health in medical education.
These 5 professional virtues can be used to provide a practical framework for the professionally responsible design and implementation of medical missions.
Sea level rise (SLR) has and will continue to impact coastal communities in the coming decades. Despite the widespread availability of data on SLR projections, little is known about the differential impact of SLR on minority or economically disadvantaged populations. In this study, we aim to identify the geographic areas in which low-income and communities of color along the North and South Carolina coastline in the United States will experience the most severe effects of SLR.
