[Original post on mastodon.thi.ng]

AI data centers are creating “heat islands,” heating land by up to 16°F and affecting 340M+ people. Beyond energy use, they’re reshaping local climates. 🌡️🔥 #AI #ClimateChange #DataCenters #HeatIsland cnn.it/4rZSiG5

it's not sustainable without urban trees, urban canopy, and parks, no matter how densely you pack them in. Remind that to every so-called 'urbanist' you see, because they sure don't say anything but 'pave baby pave'. #heatisland #protecturbantrees #planturbantrees #greenspace

Why Trees Could Be Halton Hills’ Best Defence Against a Changing Climate Amid rising heat and smoky summers, local experts say planting trees is one of the simplest, most effective tools residents have to protect their community from a changing climate.

If you’ve spent time in a large urban area, you’ve probably felt the effects of an urban heat island.

Come find out about heat islands and the importance of trees as a climate adaptation strategy, in my latest article!

"Hitte is een stille doder": Klimaatverandering veroorzaakte 7 op de 10 Europese hittedoden deze zomer, berekenen wetenschappers | VRT NWS: nieuws De voorbije hittezomer heeft naar schatting minstens 24.400 Europese hittedoden veroorzaakt. 16.500 van die doden, of 7 op de 10, zouden niet gevallen zijn zonder de klimaatopwarming. Dat berekende een team van 11 klimaatwetenschappers. Ze waarschuwen dat veel van die hittedoden niet in de statistieken belanden. Vooral ouderen en mensen met onderliggende gezondheidsproblemen zijn kwetsbaar.

Inside an urban heat island, one street can be much hotter than its neighbor - new tech makes it easier to target cooling projects It’s summer, and it’s been hot, even in northern cities such as Boston. But not everyone is hit with the heat in the same way, even within the same neighborhood. Take two streets in Boston at 4:30 p.m. on a...
