Extreme heat events are a growing public health threat. When indoor temperatures rise, people can suffer from potentially deadly illnesses, including heat exhaustion and heat stroke, as well as respiratory illnesses. Join the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Indoor Environments Division to learn how building and indoor environmental management strategies can moderate temperatures indoors during extreme heat events and reduce occupant health risks.  

This webinar highlights considerations for building managers, clinical and public health practitioners, and the public on how to promote the protection of communities and those often most vulnerable to extreme heat impacts, such as children, aging adults, and those with certain pre-existing health conditions.

Learn practical, evidence-based strategies to improve indoor conditions in homes, schools, and other commercial buildings and protect health during extreme heat events.

The on-demand video of the webinar will be posted in the coming weeks.
