And it’s a wrap on #ESEH2025!

What an honour to have been part of the panel “From the Inside Out: The Environmental and Health Implications of Regulating the Indoor Environment” featuring dusty, hot, and cold homes across the 19th and 20th centuries in Germany, France and Britain

They are doing crucial & engaging work that places under the spotlight the voices, faces, and homes of those who have borne and continue to bear the brunt of urban heat.

Today’s highlight: “The Unbearable Weight of #Displaced #Weather” by Mike Hulme, from 𝘚𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 #7

“[We] increasingly experience weather as virtual, vicarious, and sensational, rather than as real, embodied, and sensual. We become #disoriented through this surfeit of unfamiliar weather.”
