Why Climate Change Can Matter to People with Asthma: It’s the Air We Breathe

Aloha ‘Ohana!

Did you know that climate change is one of the most pressing threat to human health that our world faces today? Some groups of people, including communities of color and low-income neighborhoods, are disproportionately impacted by climate change.

For keiki (and adults) with asthma, climate change and the add-on negative effects because of increased pollution in the form of poor air quality, can have dire consequences. Research from 2020 suggests that air pollution can affect lung development in young children and contributes to inflammation associated with asthma.

Understanding how environmental factors - including pollution and climate change - affect health, especially for people with asthma, is the first step to regaining control of the air we breathe.

If you or a family member is suffering from the challenges of asthma, call (808) 293-9231 to or visit www.koolauloachc.org schedule an appointment with one of our providers.
