EXTREME HEAT IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS
“Heatwaves are responsible for more than 80% of deaths caused by weather and climate events in Europe.”
Why? Top 3 Reasons (with DATA) to Join our HEAT AID campaign!
1) No one should die in our streets due to the heat. Local government, corporations and everyday citizens have the chance to come together and ensure that individuals experiencing homelessness have the resources, tools and network to stay safe and healthy while providing opportunities to become active, working citizens again.
2) People experiencing homelessness are more exposed to heat related deaths. According to Climate Scientist David Hondula, “homeless people are about 200 times more likely to die from heat-associated causes than sheltered people.” (1)
3) Spain is one of the countries in Europe where the mortality rate of heat-related causes is the highest. Researchers found 61,672 people died of heat-related causes in Europe between 30 May and 4 September 2022. (2)
