This summer, The Center for Native Health and NCICS worked closely with the Museum of Life and Science to conduct an indoor monitoring campaign focused on the impacts of indoor heat on manufactured housing and the impact of temperature inversions. The campaign expanded on existing outdoor air quality monitoring data and connected youth with elders.

Caribbean Regenerative Community Development Corporation (CRCD) led a highly participatory, community-led, and engaging Heat Watch campaign in southwestern Puerto Rico. By combining heat mapping data with mobile and stationary air quality data, the CRCD team hopes to inform future tree planting campaigns.

Heat data collection in Moab will help organizers better understand how extreme heat and air quality are affecting Moab residents and how city officials can better prepare the thousands of visitors who enjoy Moab’s public lands each year for the heat.
