Category: Carbon Couple
HARP publishers and editors Dorothy Lander and John Graham-Pole believe that the climate emergency is the most urgent issue for population health and health equity.

We will tell our stories and record the challenges and triumphs we encounter as we attempt to reduce our carbon footprint and draw attention to the climate emergency.
