Handling Heatwaves in a Sweltering City

Climate change means hotter summers and longer, hotter and more frequent heatwaves.

Sweltering Cities is Australia’s only national advocacy organisation working specifically on issues related to extreme heat, focused on the health and wellbeing of our communities by advocating for better, climate-safe cities.

Emma Bacon, Executive Director and Founder of Sweltering Cities joined 2SER Breakfast to discuss government response to the ever-present threat of heatwaves and what we can do to stay safe.
