2024 Webinar Series

The California Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) is hosting a series of webinars as part of its efforts to track and report on climate change and its impacts on California. OEHHA launched the webinar series with a symposium held on January 24, 2024.

Each of the webinars will have a focus on a climate change topic, designed to:

  • synthesize the current scientific understanding and observed trends, with an emphasis on disproportionate impacts on communities or ecosystems; 
  • showcase state, local, community and/or Tribal efforts to address these impacts and illustrate how these actions are informed by science and data; and 
  • highlight key messages to communicate climate risks to relevant audiences.

OEHHA is hosting the webinars in partnership with one or more state agencies with responsibilities relating to the topic, as listed below.

Links for more information and to the webinar recording are added as they become available.
