Description

In the summer of 2021, Alberta experienced multiple periods of extreme heat lasting several days. Extreme heat has the potential to cause serious negative health impacts. The impacts of heat can largely be prevented through early planning and implementation of appropriate public health interventions. As a step towards improving the response to extreme heat in Alberta, this jurisdictional scan creates a synthesis of common strategies used to manage heat, drawing on heat health documentation from various municipal, provincial, federal and international agencies. The findings will primarily be used to inform management options for extreme heat in Alberta.
