@raucisona @mongabay i finally managed to finish listening to this and really have to thank you. Fascinating to learn about the 3 pillars of #HeatActionPlan s - information, infrastructure (water bodies) and social networks - and, especially, that all current 7 #ChiefHeatOfficer s across the world are women, who lead #ClimateAdaption generally. “it’s women who pick up the pieces”

A new term I came across today: #HeatActionPlan. New for me but of course, #India and many other countries have been working on these for years. #HAPs They are a good focal point for exploring how the #ClimateCrisis intersects with so much else, including #Infrastructure and #SDGs. As this @mongabay article shows, integrated approaches are crucial yet difficult in practice
