The post-lunch discussion today in #ICB2023 on Climate and Society will include discussions of policies to improve heat resiliency: 1. Mary Munoz Encinas 2. Ariane Middel 3. Elizabeth Doran 4. Melissa Guardaro 5. Morgan Rogers

Great talk by Shaylynn Trego yesterday on 'Evaluating Urban Heat Mitigation Across Networks of Plans' at #ICB2023. #ClimateAction #HeatResilience #HeatRisk

Excited to present research from the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation report at #ICB2023! Join me in the Climate and Society 4 session, room VENTANA C, 1:30-3pm, to learn about design attributes that contribute to heat burdens in schools and residential areas. Kelly Turner Ariane Middel

Ariane Middel presents findings from @FloASchneider research that practitioners’ literature fails to fully include trade-offs associated with green infrastructure and cool pavement 😬 #ICB2023

Morgan Rogers presents findings from our partnership with Pacoima Beautiful on the importance of #shade in cooling communities #ICB2023

Hot take: Extreme heat is neither “silent” or “invisible” if you’re a person that lives and works outdoors and without reprieve from heat or sufficient access to cooling. These are terms of privilege? #ICB2023

Cities have the power to protect & conserve forests, providing vital resources for their populations & mitigating the climate crisis. 🌎🌳 Join us in celebrating #BiodiversityDay and promoting sustainable management of forests near and far! Learn more ➡️bit.ly/3MKKvL1

Note the combination of tree and building #shadeinfrastructure for kids to learn and play. Not pictured: virtually unusable full sun exposed asphalt “play yard” just outside and at most schools.

Excited to be part of an incredible panel on climate change hosted by UNICEF at UCLA! Our discussion will shed light on the profound effects of climate change on children and families. #ClimateJustice #ClimateActionNow

How does #design of where we live, learn, and play affect human #heat burden? Check out report by Kelly Turner Ariane Middel Morgan Rogers et al in collab. w/ partners in Pacoima Pacoima Beautiful Community Partners + Fernangeles Elementary School⬇️ innovation.luskin.ucla.edu/publication/he…

Yup, every city needs #shadeinfrastructure …more soon with Ariane Middel and Jenni Vanos 🌎🇨🇦🇺🇸

What an incredible week at the International Congress of Int. Soc. of Biomet. #ICB2023 ! I'm still inspired by all the discussions and knowledge sharing. Excited to see where the next gathering will take us! 🌍

This Thursday join experts to hear about planning for #extremeheat. Learn innovative and collaborative approaches to building resilience. With @Segura4Change, LA City Climate Emergency Mobilization Office; David M. Hondula, City of Phoenix, AZ; Braden Kay, @Cal_OPR; and UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs.

An exciting day for science as #CONVEI takes off! This initiative is set to broaden our understanding of the planet through #EarthObservations and democratize knowledge.

“Now that climate change is a reality, virtually every sector is going to have to think about it,” says V. Kelly Turner, an urban planning professor and director of the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation. 📝: Calli McMurray californiahealthline.org/news/article/c…

Great coverage on adapting schools to a hotter future by Calli McMurray and some actions #California can take from UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation report on #extremeheat in #schools. Morgan Rogers

Love this communication format - schools are shade deserts - featuring UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation report data and #coolmural collab, Green Together Collaborative Pacoima Beautiful, Ariane Middel, Morgan Rogers, @FloASchneider instagram.com/reel/CvGMmRmLk…

Live on #CNN! "Shade is an essential measure to prevent heat risk...that cities have to intentionally think about." Kelly Turner UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation #UCLALuskin #UCLA. Check out interview here: 10_44AM_cnn_sat 7_29_23__V. Kelly Turner-CNN Newsroom-2023-07-29.mp4

Had a great time presenting at #ESA2023! A special shoutout to my incredible advisor, @kirsten_schwarz , for her invaluable guidance on the paper behind it all. Grateful for the platform and the mentors who've paved the way!
