Climate scientists predict that within 30 years, Philadelphia could spend as many as 74 days a year above 90ºF. In July 2020 alone, the city had 21 days at or above 90 degrees F (Inquirer 7/3/20).
We can all work together to cool our city with biophilic urbanist solutions, using the only truly ‘green’ air conditioning available: trees and plants. Join us virtually at the Clean Air Council’s Greenfest for a conversation on how we can collectively and individually contribute to making a healthier more livable city.
Our conversation will be moderated by Melanie Murray, LEED Green Associate, and presented by bioPhily team members: Helena van Vliet AIA, Fredda Lippes AIA, LEED AP, Vera Neumann-Sachs AIA, LEED AP, and Sadie Francis, MPA.
