13 years ago this month, my son was diagnosed with brain cancer. I promised him that I would do everything I could to help kids with #ChildhoodCancer. It’s the only thing he asked us to do. Not to help him, but to help others. I would be grateful for a follow or a RT to spread awareness and honor his journey. 🙏🏻

Our new paper about Air Quality Equity in US Climate Policy is out today in @PNASNews!
The figure highlights the pervasiveness of national and state-level air pollution disparities. But can climate policy change this pattern?
