SUMMARY:Disability on the Frontline of Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:People with disabilities face new threats from climate change driven disasters. They are more likely to lose assistive devices or medication\, become disconnected from support networks and be left behind during an emergency. Coastal South Asia’s disability community is at particular risk as global warming contributes to sea level rise\, more intense storms\, heat waves and floods. \nJoin us on October 17 for a screening of INVISIBLE IMPACT; DISABILITY ON CLIMATE CHANGE’S FRONTLINE\, a new short film by New Jersey-based journalist Jason Strother. The film explores the above concerns throughout the region. \nThe screening will be followed by a panel discussion with experts Javier Robles\, JD and Christine Schell\, MPA\, moderated by Jennifer Senick\, Ph.D. They will discuss the implications of the film for the NJ metro area in terms of climate policy\, disaster preparedness\, and emergency operations & how the urban planning and public health professions can facilitate life-saving improvements in these areas. \nVIew Panelist Bios \nLearn more about Invisible Impact at www.lens15.com/impact. \nGuest with accessibility questions please contact giulianna.rivera@rutgers.edu
