Dr. Jonathan Witte, Washington PSR member | Everett Herald
As a physician, I see the devastating health impacts caused by climate change.

It is responsible for over 1,000 premature deaths each year in Washington state. The economic impact of these health effects costs us hundreds of millions of dollars each year.
