Adapting to extreme heat takes more than changing the clock

As hotter temperatures become more common, schools, sports teams, and outdoor employers are rethinking when people can safely be outside, sometimes adjusting schedules or even canceling events altogether. This shift is crucial because it could redefine the American workday and emphasize the need for better cooling and energy infrastructure. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration advises employers to take dangerous heat seriously, which suggests a broader transformation in how we manage outdoor activities in extreme weather.
