| Abstract | Climate change poses a serious threat to the health and well-being of pregnant women and their developing fetuses. Certain populations are at greater risk of adverse outcomes from air pollution, a contributing factor to climate change. In addition, heightened exposure to extreme heat, a consequence of climate change, exacerbates the existing health care inequities in the United States. Nurses, midwives, and other health care clinicians are uniquely positioned to reduce the harmful effects of climate change by educating pregnant women and their families and advocating for systems and policies that can decelerate climate change. The purpose of this article is to provide resources for clinicians to use in educating pregnant women about the risks of extreme heat and air pollution, their potential effects on pregnancy and neonatal outcomes, and strategies to help mitigate risk. We conclude with implications for practice, opportunities for advocacy, and areas for future research. |
