    What exactly is a heat island and how is it an environmental justice crisis? 🌇 Heat islands are specific areas, typically in urban environments, that experience much higher temperatures of heat than surrounding areas. 🌲 Studies have shown that wealthier communities are often cooler than lower income communities. 💥 Communities of color, low income communities, people who work outdoors, older adults, and people with chronic conditions and disabilities, are all disproportionately impacted by the effects of heat islands. Check out this graphic for more information on heat islands!
