How can intl. research teams prep to study extreme heat & social inequality in Global South cities, where >3 *billion* ppl are projected to face unlivable heat? See @RamaswamiLab @PrincetonCGI @EPrinceton commentary in @OneEarth_CP @aneha93; @ajaynagpure; @AnuRamaswami (1/4)
New Commentary from Neha Agarwal, @ajaynagpure & @AnuRamaswami describes the challenges of doing heat equity research during Delhi’s 49.9°C (121.8°F) heatwave, and makes recommendations to support future research. An eye-opening read!

Our (@AnuRamaswami @tkangk) latest study suggests that a 10% efficiency improvement in top 20% wealthy households & commercial/industrial users can lead to significant carbon & air pollution benefits in cities. 🌍🌱 @RamaswamiLab

Thrilled to co-lead this @NSF ACERE report on Engaged Research & #Coproduction, with amazing colleagues below. To @andresclarens: Partnering w/ @SRNcities to do impactful policy-relevant research has been the honor of my life. Hope others get to feel the same creativity & joy!
In grad school a professor once told me to go out and have impact but didn't tell me how. Wish I'd had a copy of this new report we just released for @NSF AC ERE spearheaded by the indomitable @ahlynch4 @AnuRamaswami @ProfessorKJones and Maria Lemos:

Glad to see my group's research @RamaswamiLab @EPrinceton @SRNcities @PricnetonCGI getting needed attention in India from @TheGCIndia @GaonConnectionE. Imp paper w @ajaynagpure @tkangk informs equitable infrastructure policies in Indian cities for clean air.
Understanding the socioeconomic disparity between urban households is vital to curb local air pollutants and Carbon emissions.

It’s a good one! Check out this month’s issue of The Charge ⬇️
The September issue of "The Charge," #PrincetonU's energy and environmental newsletter, is now LIVE! 🔌
The latest edition includes stories on how air pollution travels, the true price of climate change, and more.
Read the full issue here: bit.ly/3d9FAo2
ALT The Charge Newsletter promo graphic Fast fact: Air travels four times as fast west to east within a hemisphere as it does north to south. This means Europe feels the effects of California fires within a week of the blazes. Princeton's Mark Zondlo and his Atmospheric Chemistry and Composition Group analyze smoke from wildfires and other types of air pollution to track how it moves and why it is concentrates in certain places at certain times. The goal is to help people better understand and prepare for poor air quality from increasingly intense fires, drought and extreme weather. Because of the long distance that smoke must travel east around the globe, fires in Europe are unlikely to have a big impact in California unless they are exceptionally massive. Air travels 4 times as fast west to east within a hemisphere as it does north to south.
