It's Earth Week on The Common. And in honor of our home planet, we're bringing you a special series. Every day this week, we're exploring what climate change looks and feels like in Greater Boston, and how it's impacting our communities, right now.
Today's destination: Boston's South End
The entire city of Boston is a heat island, but some parts of the city, including the South End, can get particularly hot on high-temperature days. Today on The Common, we head to the South End to get a better idea of what makes a heat island, and who is most likely to be impacted by extreme heat.
