CLIMATE CORNER

Keeping Cool During a Heatwave

Keeping cool during intense heat doesn’t just mean using

your air conditioning or eating ice cream. There are many

ways to be green while staying cool. Try cooling your space

by being smart about your appliance usages: avoid running

your dishwasher, dryer, washing machine, or oven on hot

days as these add heat to your space; use ceiling fans

strategically; and, consider replacing your incandescent bulbs

with LEDs because incandescent bulbs waste 90 percent of

their energy as heat. Also, keep your blinds closed during

the day to help keep heat out and open your windows during

breezy nights to cool your home. To join and learn more,

contact the Green Team at [email protected].

BREATH, BODY, MIND FOR KIDS w/Shira Gordon:

SUNDAY AUGUST 25TH 10:00am -11:00am

Children 4 - 7 with a caregiver are invited to

learn fun ways to calm down and relax using

movement, breathing, and visualization.

Bring your IMAGINATION, a small stuffed

animal, and a towel to rest on.

Register at www.thebayit.org/bbmkids

a reservation.
