Brief description: 
We have prepared some sample materials for use in medical school teaching, linking climate change to determinants of health, health improvement and the opportunities for carbon reduction through clinical care. This is the course outline for the cardiovascular module - which introduces students to the environmental determinants of cardiovascular disease, opportunities for CV health improvement through lifestyle interventions, and opportunities for carbon reduction in cardiology.
