Death by Degrees

Physicians for Social Responsibility is preparing the Death by Degrees reports for different states around the country to alert their residents to the damaging health effects of climate change and to encourage them to reverse global warming's deadly course by reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

These detailed reports have already been released in some states, and are nearing completion in several others. Look for new reports in the coming months on Arizona and Florida.

Physicians for Social Responsibility believes that health professionals have the responsibility to educate their patients about the dangers of gun violence, specifically the dangers of gun ownership. In an effort to raise physicians' awareness of this responsibility, PSR has produced a booklet called "Counseling Patients on Gun Violence Prevention: A Pocket Guide for Physicians and Nurses" The guide discusses the medical professional's role in talking to patients about the dangers associated with keeping a gun in the home, and provides guidelines for conversations with patients in a clinical setting.

Physicians for Social Responsibility represents more than 20,000 physicians, nurses and health care professionals devoted to nuclear disarmament, violence prevention and environmental health.

The next time you visit your doctors be sure and ask them about gun violence, global warming and fossil fuels.
