Extreme heat doesn’t receive the same “round-the-clock” coverage as wildfires, hurricanes, or floods. Yet, “Of all the climate disasters we face, heat is the most urgent, and its day-to-day effects are also the trickiest to talk about.” By Meg Bernhard @columjournreview.bsky.social

Wow. #HandsOff rally in St. Paul, Minnesota is massive!

An important read for all healthcare professionals by @ericreinhart.bsky.social. “In the face of demands to deny care or assist in persecuting targeted groups, health workers face a stark choice: become collaborators or resisters.” H/T @chomilomd.bsky.social www.statnews.com/2025/02/11/a...

“...to care is an act not of weakness, but of strength.” The Lancet response: bit.ly/4jRb5Av

So…I’m noticing that there is still not a Minnesota chapter of @cleanairmoms.bsky.social…do we think there would be interest in creating one? 😬

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽‍💻

An excellent thread. 👇🏻👀

According to this new study, our paper is among the 1% of environmental psychology papers that engaged with the role of racism in the 55-year history of two of the large journals. Those journals published 4,500 papers in that time; only 45 mentioned racism. 1/n. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
