simple ways to beat thesummer heat
Whether you bask in tropical days of a heat wave or dread hot temperatures each summer, you should know how to stay safe during extreme heat. Hot days are expected to become more frequent and intense
across Canada in the future. Here’s what you can do.
get informed
Tune in to local forecasts or sign up to receive heat alerts on your phone so you know when to expect the heat. If it’s available, check the Air Quality
Health Index in your area since air pollution is often worse on very hot days.
don’t wait for thirst
Feeling thirsty is not a good sign of how hydrated you are, especially in hot weather, so be sure to drink water before you feel thirsty. Try leaving a glass by the sink as a reminder, and up your fluid intake by eating fruits and vegetables with high water content like watermelon or grapes.
keep your home cool
If you find yourself in an overheated home, activate the air conditioning if it’s available.
If you don’t have air conditioning, close your curtains or blinds during the day to block out heat from the sun, and avoid using your oven to cook. If it’s safe, open your windows at night to let in cooler air. If it gets too hot in your home, relocate to a
10 4Rent.ca July 7–21, 2023 INFO YOU CAN USE
cooler area of the home like your basement or visit an air-conditioned space like a library or cooling centre.
be friendly
Try to plan regular check-ins with family, friends and neighbours on hot days to help each other find relief. Head to an air-conditioned space such as a home, the local library or the movies.
Extreme heat poses health risks for everyone, especially for young children, older adults and those of us with breathing difficulties or other health conditions. It’s smart to stay connected to give and receive support.

3 tips for a sustainable summer staycation
Thinking about a summer vacation but unsure where to start? This year, why not explore close to home and connect with nature. Here’s how to make the most of everything Canada has to offer with a more sustainable summer vacation.
go offline and get outside
For a truly refreshing and restorative staycation, disconnect for a few days without reaching for phones or laptops. Electronics can disrupt our circadian rhythm and natural sleep cycle. Consider morning salutations or meditation to connect with nature and set your intentions for the day.
There are 37 national parks and 10 national park reserves in Canada, plus
numerous provincial parks and local nature reserves to explore, meaning nature isn’t far from your doorstep.
“camp” from the comfort of home
Roughing it in the outdoors may not be ideal for everyone, but it’s easy to create a quality camping experience from home. Set up a tent in the backyard or a local campground, light some candles or a bonfire, and roast marshmallows and hot dogs using sticks fallen from nearby trees.
Try bringing food and snacks you already have in the fridge or pantry. If grocery shopping’s a must, consider carbon-neutral food options like Maple Leaf Natural Top Dogs. The Carbon Zero logo indicates a carbon neutral company to help you iden-
tify planet-friendly options for your cookout.
support sustainable experiences
Looking for a new experience? Try visiting food festivals or fundraisers in your area. These provide the opportunity for you and your family to support the community while also cutting down on your carbon emissions since you won’t have to travel far.
If booking a hotel or rental property, ask your accommodation provider about their sustainability commitments to choose an option that aligns with sustainable tourism.
Make staycations the new vacations. The more we explore our neighbourhoods on foot, the smaller our carbon footprint. ■

mood-boosting comfort foods
may lower stress during challenging times
The pandemic is causing uncertainty and upheaval in our everyday life, taking a toll on our routines, relationships and physical and mental health.
Many of us have been turning to food for comfort, with sales of staples like meat, flour and eggs spiking in recent months.
It could be due to biological drive. New research, published in Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, found meat plays an important role in our mental health. The study found clear evidence that those who avoid eating meat tended to have higher rates or risk of depression and anxiety compared to those who include meat in their diet.
Celebratory foods like ribs, bacon and steak can even help lift our spirits and mark special occasions –even if you’re just rejoicing that it’s summertime.
Perfect for a backyard barbecue, this delicious pork chop recipe is a great way to toast the warm weather with family or friends, even if at a distance. ■

• 1 tbsp light soy sauce
• 1 tbsp rice wine or cider vinegar

camping hacks
Camping is the unofficial Canadian summer pastime. Pitching tents, cooking meals and spending time with family and friends under the stars brings us closer to nature. But how do camping habits impact Earth? Here are some eco-conscious hacks that will preserve the fun – and the planet – during your next trip
rent, repair or borrow
Preparing camping gear is an important step in the planning process. This year, instead of spending money on new equipment, consider buying used or renting, borrowing or repairing what you already have. If you have friends who camp, there’s a high chance they have gear you can borrow – sharing is caring and ecofriendly.
The longer you keep a product, the less impact it will have on the environment. A little TLC spent on bringing new life to existing camping tools will help protect the planet for future generations.
shop local and sizzle sustainably
Don’t grocery shop ahead of time; instead, consider buying fresh food at your destination. Purchasing fresh, locally grown produce from farmers and distributors near your destination supports the community, is better for the environment and is more likely to reduce food waste.
And don’t stop at produce - the best camping mornings start with bacon. To sizzle sustainably, look out for the Carbon Zero logo on foods
like Maple Leaf Original Natural Bacon packs.
say no to plastic to preserve nature’s beauty
Instead of buying plastic water bottles, bring reusable ones and fill them up at your campsite. Some sites have water refill stations, or you can filter and boil your own from nearby natural resources.
Limit single-use containers and bring reusable cloth trash bags with you to collect your waste. Recycling and composting where you can goes a long way towards preserving nature’s beauty.
Eco-conscious camping is all about reducing our environmental footprint. Have fun, take care of each other and respect Mother Nature. ■
