Urban Sustainability and Equity Center (USEC) invites members of the Richmond community to participate in this roundtable event and learn about our recent research findings related to local heat island patterns in the City of Richmond.
Over the past several months, our organization has developed a dynamic spatial analysis of urban heat island effect within the Richmond metropolitan region. At this event, we will be sharing our preliminary research report, as well as our recommendations for local mitigation strategies.
Research presentation will be followed by a panel on environmental equity among leaders in the sustainability field.
Speakers TBA.
