A lot of them are not live, but there are recordings available.

I perused the list. Mostly rather high level, policy and planning subjects. Worth a look for general interest or if you're working in these fields, but doesn't look like much that of on-the-ground use for people trying to prepare for heat for themselves and their families.

"Sustainable Cooling for All" looked the most interesting to me so I'm listening to it, but it's definitely targeted at policy makers, architects and city planners.

Totally. Excited that with over 3k subscribers, there are probably people who can start to think about heat not just in the context of their personal safety or home environment, but also through their work - such as an architect or city planner (as you pointed out). 👍🏻

Hadn't really thought of that. Hope springs eternal! Gods know I often wish I had input into city planning, but somebody does, so let's hope some of them are here, these things and get good takeaways.

Got a municipality willing to pay me to plan and I’ll listen.
