Extreme Heat & Climate Change: A Health Equity Crisis |
|
Over the last several years we have witnessed the toll that heat waves have taken on our people and the impact they have on our food and cultural ways. We have also become more aware of their increased intensity and frequency. The reality of climate change and global warming is something we have all become intimately familiar with, yet often don’t have the necessary information to prepare for and adapt to.
