DESCRIPTION:
Among the most dangerous impacts of climate change, extreme heat presents a serious threat to people, natural environments and infrastructure, especially in the most vulnerable communities. Recognizing the concerning trend of hotter summers and extended periods of heat stress, the City of Boston partnered with a team of consultants, including WSP, to develop its Heat Resilience Solutions for Boston action plan. Part of the Climate Ready Boston initiative, “The Heat Plan” gathers research findings and presents equitable strategies to help the City’s neighborhoods adapt to these changes, and to protect public health and wellbeing.
