This week:
Why was this year so hot? Will it keep getting hotter, and for how long? It’s not an easy read, but it’s important you know and keep in mind the inputs and externalities.
Here's What You Can Do:
- Donate to Climate CREW to help build resilience hubs and prepare your community for extreme heat.
- Volunteer to build a resilience hub in your community so your community can better respond to extreme heat.
- Get educated about community planning for extreme heat by reading this piece from Vox.
- Be heard about the health and safety of workers and urge your representatives to support the Asunción Valdivia Heat Illness, Injury, and Fatality Prevention Act.
- Invest in deforestation-free funds so your money isn’t contributing to the planet getting hotter.
