Momentum is building by engaging youth, with a new project for RI Youth Tree Protectors. Through this pilot, youth will receive hands-on urban tree education and help increase the greenery in urban areas. These trees can help reduce peak summer temperatures by as much as 10 degrees.

MODELS FOR CHANGE Whether it is building raised vegetable beds, training in emergency preparedness, or filmmaking, the experience of the Rhode Island Health Equity Zones shows that locally-led resiliency projects are the most effective and durable. HEZ believes that these projects can serve as a model for change beyond Rhode Island, as communities seek to engage with climate change. Locally specific responses are the key to demonstrating both how we are affected by climate change today and how we can respond to its effects in the future. Rachel Calabro is the Climate Change and Health Program manager at the Rhode Island Department of Health. In that role, she helps Rhode Islanders prepare for the health effects of climate change through education, research and supporting policy change. She is an environmental scientist with a background in community outreach and planning. Connect at Rachel.Calabro@health.ri.gov.
