Ohio Clinicians for Climate Action

OCCA's goal is to engage health care professionals, medical chapters, and health care organizations in climate change discussions to help educate patients, community leaders, and legislators about the impacts climate change can have on human health while advocating for beneficial, sustainable climate solutions.

To do this, we use our voices as trusted messengers to spread the word locally and nationally. You will see our members writing op-eds and letters to the editor, testifying at legislative hearings, giving interviews to various media outlets, and educating patients and colleagues on the on positive actions that can be taken to help mitigate climate changes effects for a healthier population.
