I find relief from #oatmeal "compresses" (oatmeal and water in a washcloth, and tied off), and cool showers / compresses. Cucumber slices and aloe are also good ideas (though some folks have sensitivity to aloe vera juice).

12 home remedies for #HeatRash

"#HomeRemedies and #SelfCare techniques, such as #Home remedies and self-care techniques, such as #ColdCompresses, calamine lotion, and oatmeal baths, can help soothe heat rash symptoms.

"Heat rash, also known as #miliaria, #SweatRash, or #PricklyHeat, can appear anywhere on the body.

"It often presents as a red or other discolored, inflamed rash with small bumps resembling beads of sweat or acne. The redness or discoloration may be harder to see on dark skin. People may experience uncomfortable, itchy, burning, or prickly sensations.

"Heat rash can clear up by itself in a few days, but there are also home treatments to help relieve itching and cool the skin."

#HarvestingRainwater with Brad Lancaster: How to Create Livable Desert Cities

by Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't
Jun 9, 2026

Part 1 of a 3 Video Series

"In this episode we see the incredible work that Brad Lancaster and his community are doing to make the #DunbarSpring Neighborhood in #TucsonAZ a cooler, more pleasant and human-friendly place to live by using plants as infrastructure and creating a #FoodForest using #NativePlants that are adapted to deal with the desert heat perfectly because they evolved there.

"This video shows us how what Brad and his community have done serve as a model as to what could be down to make cities all over the globe more livable, illustrating how human development and nature do not have to be mutually exclusive. Filming this video and seeing that Brad and his people have done made me feel in something I haven't felt in a long time : hope."

#ClimateResilient #Gardening: How to Adapt Your Garden to #ExtremeWeather

ECO gardener, Nov 14, 2024

Excerpt: "Gardening in Extreme Weather

Gardening in extreme weather can be challenging, but with the right strategies, you can protect plants and maintain a healthy garden:

Choose Weather-Resistant Plants
Opt for #DroughtTolerant, heat-resistant plants in hot climates (like succulents or lavender) and hardy, cold-resistant species in colder climates (like kale or coneflowers).

Use #Mulch to Retain Moisture and Insulate
Applying a thick layer of organic mulch helps regulate soil temperature and retain moisture, making it essential in both hot and cold conditions.

Install #ShadeCloth or Row Covers
In intense heat, a shade cloth can protect plants from direct sun, while row covers offer frost protection during cold spells.

Water Smartly
For hot weather, water early in the morning to reduce evaporation and avoid wetting foliage. In winter, water during the day when temperatures are above freezing to help roots absorb moisture before the ground freezes.

Consider #RaisedBeds
Raised beds help with drainage in #WetClimates and can warm up faster in colder weather, giving plants a more stable growing environment.

Wind Protection Strategies
Use windbreaks like shrubs, fencing, or netting to shield plants from damaging winds that can dry out or freeze foliage.

Invest in Hardy #ContainerGardens
For extreme weather, container gardens are versatile—easily moved to sunny spots, shady areas, or even indoors as needed. [I do this with tomatoes and other plants]

Optimize Soil Health
Healthy, well-drained soil holds moisture better in heat and protects roots from frost damage in winter. Regularly add compost to enrich soil.

Use #ColdFrames or #Greenhouses
These structures create a controlled environment, extending the growing season and protecting plants from temperature extremes.

Keep an Eye on Weather Patterns
Staying informed about sudden temperature changes can help you take timely action, like covering plants or adjusting watering schedules.

With these tips, you can create a resilient garden that adapts to extreme weather challenges while keeping your plants thriving."

Healing the ground we broke

By Celia Llopis-Jepsen, David Condos, Mackenzie Martin
Published July 1, 2024

"After Europeans colonized America, their descendants plowed their way across the continent, seeking prosperity through farming. But breaking up the soil – that had built up over many thousands of years – made it wash away. So some farmers are retiring their tilling equipment. Amble through #Kansas prairies and cornfields as we learn how treasuring the ground beneath our feet can lead to farms that better withstand #ClimateChange, use less #fertilizer and suck carbon out of the atmosphere."

Between land and water: Tribal relocation and resistance

By Celia Llopis-Jepsen
Published April 6, 2026

"#ClimateChange is altering the land, and #Indigenous communities are on the frontline. This episode takes you to #Alaska, where rapid permafrost thaw is threatening the Native village of #Nunapitchuk. Then, we head to #Louisiana, where the #PointeAuChien Indian Tribe is losing its land to rising #SeaLevels. These tribes are forced to make a difficult decision between staying and adapting or leaving their ancestral homes. (This episode comes to us from the environmental podcast #SeaChange.)"

Una de las maneras de enfriar paredes es colocar vegetación al frente. Hace rato queremos poner alguna enredadera, pero no podemos hacer hoyos en la pared. La vecina nos había regalado recortes de su Ipomoea, que sembramos en macetas en lo que hacíamos alguna estructura móvil. Ya habían pegado y periódicamente había que desenredarlas de las otras plantas que tenemos sembradas. Finalmente ayer quedó listo un soporte para que se trepen y las instalamos. Justo a tiempo para la época de calor. #PlantasUrbanas #FloraUrbana #UrbanFlora #ClimateChangeAdaptation #Gardening #Jardineria
