TURNING DOWN THE HEAT: HOW CITIES CAN PREPARE FOR EXTREME TEMPERATURES

Extreme heat is causing widespread negative health impacts, especially for the poorest and most vulnerable communities. Cities, as ground zero for the nexus between human health and climate change, are taking action to mitigate its impact and adapt to a warmer future. 2022 was the sixth warmest year since global records began in 1880, and temperatures in 20 percent of the world’s most populated cities are expected to rise by more than 4 degrees Celsius by 2050. Extreme heat is negatively impacting health, especially in the poorest and most vulnerable communities, and it is reaching disaster levels, causing more deaths each year than any other weather-related event in some parts of the world. Municipalities and health care communities in some of the hottest cities are developing and implementing adaptation, awareness, and resilience strategies to address the negative health impacts and reduce urban heat island effects as temperatures rise. Some driving causes of climate change, such as the built environment, housing, and transportation, can also provide potential solutions to reducing heat and improving health outcomes.

KEEP GOING

As the CGI community knows, making – and keeping – commitments, isn’t easy. Obstacles arise, global trendlines can disrupt local solutions, and even sustaining the energy and focus to drive projects to completion can waver.   Despite this, we know the antidote is as simple as it is true – you must keep going. From community shelters in Ukraine, to farming cooperatives in Kenya; boardrooms in Manhattan, to food pantries in Appalachia; classrooms in Medellin, to salt flats in India – people around the world wake up every day and make the choice keep going. While these choices individually may be small and focused, taken together, they build the momentum needed to overcome the global challenges we face.   Last year, the CGI community mobilized for the first time in six years to make over 140 Commitments to address global challenges. Just as climate change, economic inequality, growing health disparities, and backsliding for gender equity continue, we must continue to choose action. We must be nimble, focused, and clear-eyed in our objectives. But most importantly, we cannot allow the scale of the challenges we face to overwhelm the solutions we can bring to bear. We must keep going.

Educators look on as students are led in a math exercise. Some 400 educators from across the state and nation converged on Des Moines July 10 through 12 to learn how to revolutionize teaching math in their classrooms. Educators learned about Cognitively Guided Instruction, or CGI, which is a professional development program aimed at making mathematics – particularly for those in elementary school – more readily understandable to each and every student. The CGI event, co-hosted by the Iowa Department of Education and Iowa State University’s Center for Excellence in Science, Mathematics and Engineering Education, focused on teaching techniques to help children understand how math is applied in the world, in addition to understanding how to use the mathematical procedures. The overarching concept behind CGI is that each student learns in different ways.

A SEAT AT THE TABLE

Today over 300 million people are food insecure – more than double the number in 2020 – due to conflict, climate change, and inflation. From nations around the world to neighborhoods in Manhattan, the global food crisis is upending years of international coordination and progress. Tactical steps are necessary across the entire food and agricultural spectrum to reverse these alarming trendlines, and we all must find new ways to partner to address both the short- and long-term impacts of the food crisis. Whether it’s the lack of productive land due to climate change, the shrinking livelihood opportunities for famers around the world, or the loss of dignity a parent experiences when struggling to provide food for their child, new approaches are required to fill these voids. Developing innovative partnerships that meet the moment we’re in is paramount to addressing the food crisis, and begs the question – who else should have a seat at the table?

STORY STUDIO: REPAVING ROADS: PAVING A PATH TO UNITY AND HEALING DIVISIONS

We don’t need to listen to statisticians or political pundits to know the roads that once brought us together to unite us in the face of our most significant challenges are now in disarray. What we need is to repave our roads — in every sense. By pushing past our divisions and reminding ourselves of our shared values and potential for shared prosperity, we can begin to forge new pathways and repave old ones to bring us together once again. In this session, you’ll hear stories from people repaving roads toward unity.

NATURE-BASED SOLUTIONS: HOW TO HARNESS OUR GREATEST ASSETS FOR CLIMATE RESILIENCE

The Nature Conservancy estimates nearly one-third of greenhouse gases can be captured through nature-based solutions like forestry management. The goal of reducing our carbon footprint through offsets is an ideal win-win for both nature and society, but as businesses move to implement these solutions, there is warranted skepticism about the integrity of the proposals and the legitimacy of the promises made by carbon-offset markets. There is also a need to balance the pursuit of carbon neutrality in the global economy with the role and needs of indigenous communities as stewards of the environment. By standardizing best practices for carbon offsets and empowering local and indigenous communities by including them in the decision-making that directly impacts their lives, we can strive for greater transparency and integrity in the carbon-offset market to benefit both forests and people.
