MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava was joined by philanthropist Adrienne Arsht and other leaders Friday morning to announce a new initiative to combat extreme heat, which has become a growing climate threat.
Arsht opened the press conference by saying “heat isn’t just uncomfortable,” but is dangerous, especially for the elderly, pregnant women and those who work outdoors, and can often even be deadly.
The mayor added that the humidity in South Florida makes the heat even worse than in hot, dry areas.
She said the initiative will fall under the county’s broader Resilient305 initiative and various non-profit organizations will also be assisting in the effort, including the Adrienne Arsht-Rockefeller Foundation Resilience Center and The Miami Foundation.
