But Tyee health reporter Michelle Gamage says that slowly, and hopefully surely, a public shift is happening. We’re starting to recognize the extreme danger that heat is, and that means we’re starting to better prepare for it. From icy groin towels to how local and federal governments need to step up, Michelle lets us know what we can do to keep ourselves and our neighbours cool for many summers to come.Support independent media by becoming a Tyee Builder today.
