#heatactionplans — Public Fediverse posts

New interview out with Naveena Sadasivam at @Grist: “Cities across the world — even the ones that are doing the best that they can — are still preparing for the heat that we’re experiencing today. They’re not doing a great job of really aggressively planning for the heat that we’re going to experience tomorrow.”

#ClimateDiary yesterday i switched on #Radio4 and this was on - a really informative and useful program on #ClimateCrisis #Heatwaves and impacts on our health; what the #UK is and isn’t doing about it, and what people can do at home.

But wow, hearing #BBC voices talking about #ClimateAdaption and #UK #HeatActionPlans really brought home that this is it now

Reading this ⬆️ i was wondering how hot it was in #Mecca just now - I don’t really have a sense of “normal” temperatures during the #Hajj or indeed of what kind of #ClimateAdaption or #HeatActionPlans are in place for this already, but it’s made me think more about wider social, cultural impact of #ClimateChange - might events like Hajj or #Juneteenth in #Houston (where rapper #BigPokey may have died of #Heatstroke during performance) become untenable? #ClimateDiary
