This workshop will provide an overview of the impact of frequent heat events on health and equity in our communities. We’ll explore the roles played by local governments in addressing heat events, introduce CAP’s Heat Adaptation Project, and give an overview of North America’s maximum temperature bylaws. Finally, you will hear from the Canadian Environmental Law Association on municipal authority to implement a maximum temperature bylaw.
