Bay Area Heat Mapping Campaign Recap x Cool Cities Coalition Launch Climate change is increasing the severity and frequency of extreme heat events. Our planet, our cities, and our communities are only going to get hotter. Last summer, the Palo Alto Student Climate Coalition partnered with NOAA to conduct the 2024-2025 Bay Area Heat Mapping Campaign to map the distribution of extreme heat in Palo Alto, East Palo Alto, and Menlo Park. The data collected highlighted hot spots throughout the cities where cooling solutions (like expanding tree canopy) are most needed. The campaign leaders are now launching the Cool Cities Coalition , an organization focused on deploying cooling solutions and bringing cities together to build resilience to extreme heat. We are working to build relationships with city leaders and design and implement effective policy. The CCC is kicking off the summer with the 2025 Extreme Heat Summit , a gathering of City officials, Council members, staff, emergency preparedness experts, activists as well as residents in an effort to explore best practices for protecting our cities against the rising threat of extreme heat. Join us on Sunday, August 17th from 1-3pm at the Cooley Landing Education Center in East Palo Alto for engaging conversations and a free lunch from VeggieGrill. The 2025 Extreme Heat Summit will feature a panel of City officials and scientists, followed by an interactive Q&A and comment section to solicit feedback and ideas from residents . This convening will bring leaders across the Bay Area together to share creative ideas to build community climate resilience. The full report of the data collection from the 2024-25 Bay Area heat Mapping Campaign can be found here: Heat Mapping - Full Report Heat Mapping Data Story map designed by Stanford’s Sustainable Cities class Heat Mapping Presentation to Palo Alto City Council Heat Mapping Campaign Website with additional resources Information Source: 2024 Bay Area Heat Mapping Campaign | eventbrite

For the third year, we continue our experiment in offering multi-locational, hybrid education, structuring a program that supports the full participation of persons who may gather either in person or online.

Triage and Transformation: Spiritual Leadership and Organizing Amidst a Polycrisis Join us for the 13th annual Starr King Symposium as we explore the shape of religious and social leadership amidst a polycrisis of sociopolitical, cultural, economic, and climatic disruption.

Gathering together in hybrid community, we will find guidance and inspiration in expert teachers, practitioners, and one another, and will begin to develop action plans to meet the challenges ahead. Our program will focus on community self-organizing to build resilience and the roles to be played by congregational ministers, chaplains, and social-change leaders. Topics and skill areas may include spiritual grounding, conflict resolution, solidarity creation, and other rituals and practices that will be vital in challenging times.
