\\nSummer temper atures in the Northeast are increasing\, along with extreme heat days and heat waves. At “From Snow Days to Heat Waves\,” learn about the intersecti ons of climate change\, heat\, and health in the Greater Boston area.
\nSpeakers will highlight projects across the Greater Boston area addre ssing the issues of rising and extreme temperatures\, public health\, equi ty\, and climate change via short presentations and a panel discussion. A full list of speakers will be announced soon.
\nExtreme heat is one of the deadliest weather events in the United States\, and can exacerbate existing health conditions. And the effects aren’t experienced equally: th e impacts of extreme heat are greater in low-income and BIPOC neighborhood s\, where historic disinvestment has resulted in less access to green spac e\, fewer street trees\, and inadequate housing and cooling infrastructure . These impacts will likely be intensified as climate change causes temper atures to increase and humidity to rise.
\nThis event is co-hosted b y the Museum of Science\, Boston\; Mystic River Watershed Association\; an d Metropolitan Area Planning Council. The Metropolitan Mayors Coalition Cl imate Taskforce and Resilient Mystic Collaborative are co-sponsors.
