Planetary Health Report Card
UM, Spring 2022
The Planetary Health Report Card is an international, student-drive, metric-based initiative to inspire planetary health and sustainable healthcare education engagement in medical schools.
For more about the planetary health report card, visit: http://phreportcard.org
In April, Montana Student Health Professionals for a Healthy Climate, with the support an leadership of our faculty mentor Hayley Blackburn, completed a planetary health report card (PHRC) assessment for the pharmacy school at the University of Montana. The purpose of these assessments was to determine the degree to which the pharmacy school currently engages with communities most affected by climate change and environmental injustice as well as see to what degree the school currently advocates for sustainable healthcare practices through its curriculum to reduce environmental waste.
Leaders from the nation-wide PHRC initiative assessed the University of Montana’s submission and provided UM’s pharmacy school with a letter grade of “B –" for its various planetary health and climate change oriented coursework and initiatives.

UM STUDENTS APRIL 2022
Climate Bike Ride and Volunteer Day
In April, the Montana Student Health Professionals for a Healthy Climate organized a climate bike ride/volunteer day. A small group of University of Montana students met on campus and biked to Soil Cycle and Free Cycles for a fun and engaging day of volunteer work. At Soil Cycle our team spent the morning shifting and sorting compost, along with assisting the Soil Cycle team with preparing bags of compost for delivery.
