TribCast: Extreme heat and the toll of climate change on Texas
By Alexa Ura and Justin Dehn
Sign up for The Brief, The Texas Tribune’s daily newsletter that keeps readers up to speed on the most essential Texas news.
In this week’s episode, we speak with The Texas Tribune’s climate reporter Erin Douglas about why it’s been so hot in Texas lately — and the weather’s deadly toll — and examine the long-term implications as climate change shifts the entire range of Texas heat upward.
Join us for conversations that matter with newly announced speakers at the 2023 Texas Tribune Festival, in downtown Austin from Sept. 21-23.
