Summers are now <\/strong>so brutally hot <\/strong>that the US government created a new website, heat.gov<\/a>, to help Americans stay safe during dangerous heat spells. It features <\/strong>maps that show current heat conditions across the country and provides other tools and resources to help people beat the heat. <\/p>\n

The main goal of the website is to prevent heat-related illness and death by sharing up-to-date information on extreme heat. Heat kills more people in the US<\/a> than any other weather disaster. Often, it disproportionately harms vulnerable pockets of people, including children, older people, and communities of color<\/a> who live in urban and formerly redlined neighborhoods designed in a way that traps heat<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t have to accept this. Right? This doesn\u2019t have to be this way,\u201d Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo said during a press briefing on the new website. \u201cYou could be a mom trying to decide this summer, \u2018is it safe for your kids to play outside? To go to camp?\u2019 … The information on heat.gov is designed to help you [with] concrete, actionable information to help you navigate the risks.\u201d<\/p>\n
