How are You Dressing for a Warming Climate?
Fulton Schools Associate Professor and ASU Global Futures Scientist Konrad Rykaczewski’s research focuses on the development of soft thermal materials and systems, and on the study of human thermal exposure in extreme heat. He was among three experts interviewed about human adaptation to extreme heat, and why it’s complicated by our warming climate — as well as by certain social and cultural factors. He’s joined by The New York Times climate adaptation reporter, and by the author of the book “The Joy of Sweat: The Strange Science of Perspiration.”
