Worker's Right to Cooling
Worker's Right to Cooling
As the warming climate leads to hotter summer temperatures, workers are facing increased risks from heat. Working class people, particularly those who work outdoors, are most vulnerable to impacts such as health consequences and loss of income. Therefore, it's important to have in place policies which will protect workers. Ithaca's Climate Action Plan recommends policies such as mandating breaks and access to water for workers. Similar policies have already been passed in other regions, such as Phoenix. Our current campaign involves pushing for these policies to be put in place in Ithaca, in line with the recommendations of the City's Climate Action Plan.

Tenant's Right to Cooling Survey
Tenant's Right to Cooling Survey
While our primary focus at the current time is on worker's rights to cooling, we are also collecting data to help inform a future campaign focused on tenant's rights to cooling. We would appreciate it if you could fill out this survey if you are a tenant in Ithaca, and share with your networks. This will help to inform our future work in pushing for policies to ensure access to cooling for tenants.
