A heat wave in 2021 killed 19 people in Spokane, Washington. The city was awarded $19.9M by the EPA to prepare for future heat waves, but the grant was abruptly terminated. Now Spokane and 350 other communities are left scrambling to adapt to #climatechange. theconversation.com/my-city-was-...

My city was one of hundreds expecting federal funds to help manage rising heat wave risk – then EPA terminated the grants

The administration said the grants were ‘no longer consistent with EPA funding priorities.’ Spokane, which has faced deadly heat waves in eastern Washington, shows who is at risk.
