Rishee Jain is an engineer and an expert in the built environment – the manmade structures of modern life. The future, Jain says, will be a place where everyone has a safe, comfortable place to live and work, and the built environment adapts in real time to our needs. Jain is now exploring cool roofs that reflect heat to lower indoor temperatures and improve occupants' well-being. We once believed that humans bent infrastructure to our needs, but now we understand how infrastructure changes us, too, Jain tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering'sThe Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

The Ten Across Resilience Network convened in Jacksonville, Florida, in April to share strategies from their communities—the hottest in the nation—for mitigating the mortality and economic loss caused by extreme heat, and to identify common obstacles to both long-term planning and immediate response. Representatives from the Federation of American Scientists (FAS) joined the exercise to discuss and document the findings.  With co-author Dr. Melissa Guardaro, Senior Global Futures Scientist for ASU's Global Futures Lab, FAS's Grace Wickerson has drafted a set of policy recommendations for all levels of government and non-governmental actors, “Framework for a Heat-Ready Nation.” This document draws heavily upon the recommendations, challenges and successes raised by Ten Across participants and outlines a series of steps that can be taken to protect people and their livelihoods from rising temperatures nationwide.  In this episode, Grace walks us through the five high-priority measures defined in the report;  how these points were determined and what it will take to see them carried out. A scientist recognized for their policy advocacy work by last month's 2025 Grist 50 list, Grace discusses the importance of decisions based on sound science, and how to move forward even as most federal climate policy is rolled back.   Relevant Articles and Resources  Framework for a Heat-Ready Nation (Ten Across/Federation of American Scientists, July 2025)  2025 Heat Policy Agenda (Federation of American Scientists, January 2025)  “As summer ends, Maricopa County is on track to see fewer heat-related deaths than last year” (KJZZ, September 2025)  “Ten Across Joins 60+ Organizations in Supporting Federal Policy Agenda for Tackling Extreme Heat” (Ten Across blog, January 2025)  “Here's why an Arizona medical examiner is working to track heat-related deaths” (NPR, June 2024)  Relevant Ten Across Conversations Podcasts  ASU Researchers Tackle Extreme Heat Relief as Phoenix Temps Soar  Urban Planners: The Unexpected Champions of the U.S. Heat Resilience Effort  What Some of the Hottest Cities on The 10 Are Doing to Address Deadly Heat  CreditsHost: Duke ReiterProducer and editor: Taylor GriffithMusic by: Dew of Light and Lennon HuttonResearch and support provided by: Kate Carefoot, Rae Ulrich, and Sabine Butler  About our guest  Grace Wickerson is senior manager of Climate and Health on the Climate and Environment team at the Federation of American Scientists.

The Korey Stringer Institute, at the University of Connecticut, is named after an N.F.L. player who died of exertional heatstroke. The lab's main research subjects have been athletes, members of the military, and laborers. But, with the extreme heat wrought by climate change, even mild exertion will put more and more of us in harm's way; in many parts of the United States, a combined heat wave and power outage could cause staggering fatalities. Dhruv Khullar, a New Yorker contributor, practicing physician, and professor of health policy, visited the Stringer Institute to undergo a heat test—walking uphill, for ninety minutes, in a hundred-and-four-degree heat—to better understand what's happening. “I just feel extremely puffy everywhere,” Khullar sighed. “You'd have to cut my finger off just to get my wedding ring off.” By the end of the test, he spoke of experiencing cramps, dizziness, and a headache. Khullar discussed the dangers of heatstroke with Douglas Casa, the lab's head, who nearly died of the condition as a young athlete. “Climate change has taken this into the everyday world for the everyday American citizen. You don't have to be a laborer working for twelve hours; you don't have to be a soldier in training,” Casa tells him. “This is making it affect so many people, even just during daily living.” Although the treatment for heat-related illness is straightforward, Casa says that implementation of simple preventive measures remains challenging—and that there is much we need to do to better prepare for the global rise in temperatures. This segment originally aired on August 25, 2023.

U.S. and EU Reach Trade Deal, Tariff Rate Halved; Extreme Heat to Affect 130 Million Americans | NTD Good Morning (July 28)The Trump administration is holding talks with the UK and China on Monday after announcing a deal with the EU over the weekend. The agreement comes just days before the U.S. tariffs were due to spike. The EU deal cuts the proposed tariffs in half, and will bring hundreds of billions of dollars in European investment to the United States. President Donald Trump announced the deal from his resort in Scotland, calling it “good news for everybody.”More than 130 million people are under heat alerts as dangerous temperatures grip much of the country. Tampa has hit 100 degrees for the first time in recorded history, with heat indexes expected to top 110 through the week. Meanwhile, severe storms are expected across the Northern Plains, with damaging winds and the possibility of tornadoes.Cambodia and Thailand have agreed to a cease-fire starting at midnight on Monday local time, pausing five days of their deadliest clashes in over a decade. The breakthrough came during peace talks in Malaysia after President Trump pressured both sides over the weekend. Both Thailand and Cambodia accuse the other of starting the fighting last week. The conflict soon escalated to clashes with heavy artillery at multiple locations along their 500-mile land border.
