<p class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size:12pt;color:black;">Some areas of Sacramento are more than 10 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than their rural surroundings, largely because of how neighborhoods have been planned and built. Buildings, roads, pavements, and machinery all generate additional, artificial heat, making our communities hotter. Trees and parks, as well as other strategies, can help to cool communities down, but they are often lacking in historically under-resourced and under-served communities. </span>
<span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:"arial", sans-serif;color:#403f42;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size:12pt;color:black;">For more than a year, Sac Metro Air District has been studying this phenomena (know as the urban heat island effect) in the region in attempts to reduce heat health risk, particularly among those most vulnerable. </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:"arial", sans-serif;color:#403f42;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size:12pt;color:black;">This webinar is intended for community-based organizations, non-profits and residents who would like to learn about urban heat islands in Sacramento. </span>

de Sacramento suelen ser más calurosas por hasta 10 grados Fahrenheit que las
áreas rurales a su alrededor. Este efecto es conocido como la <strong>isla de calor
urbana</strong>, y es debido mayormente a la manera en que las comunidades fueron
planeados y construidos. Los edificios, las calles, los pavimientos, y la
maquinaria, todos generan calor y hacen a nuestras comunidades más calurosas que
las áreas no urbanizados. </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:"arial", sans-serif;color:#403f42;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:#1c1c20;">Los árboles y
los parques pueden ayudar a refrescar las comunidades, pero se ve que hacen
falta en las comunidades donde vive la mayoría de la gente de menos recursos.</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:"arial", sans-serif;color:#403f42;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:#1c1c20;">Por más de un
