This newly-released study on wildfire smoke is particularly relevant today. It finds that from 2011–2021 there were increases in the number of days of heavy smoke in communities with racial or ethnic minority status, lower educational attainment, and crowded housing conditions
Wildfire smoke is a #publichealth problem. We need to urgently address the #ClimateEmergency and ensure equitable adaptation. Read the full paper here:

An updated reminder that urbanism is an important strategy for addressing climate change #metrosapiens
New data has revealed stark disparities in how different U.S. households contribute to climate change. Looking at maps of America’s cities, a pattern emerges.

This project was a great bridge for me between my time at @CAPublicHealth and into the @sffed. It focuses on the housing and economic circumstances of communities suffering the most from #COVID19. #unreservedopportunity = #healthequity
Our latest #communitydevelopment report examines residential instability—including moving, crowding, and financial health—in the #SFBayArea through the #COVID19 pandemic. See what we learned at
