SUMMARY:Hot Day Care Brigade 🌞🌡️🧃
CONTACT:Revolutionary Bicycle Club
DESCRIPTION:We ride if temps hit 93\nClimate chaos is here\, and heat 
 kills! \n\nLet's take a slow ride around SE to deliver cold drinks and 
 care to anyone we encounter who needs a cooldown. We know that people 
 living or working outside are particularly vulnerable to heatstroke\, and 
 wildlife and outdoor pets can suffer too.\n\nWe'll only ride if the temps 
 are in the mid nineties or above. We'll repeat this ride on other days as 
 needed\, so check the calendar on any hot day to see if it's happening. 
 \n\nThis will be a casual ride with no definitive route and may split into
  groups if a lot of people show up. We may end the ride by stopping 
 somewhere for a cold treat or drink\, plunging in a river\, merging with 
 another ride\, or just heading home. You decide!\n\nWHAT YOU CAN BRING: 
 cold or frozen bottled drinks\, water (jugs or bottles)\, snacks (salty 
 snacks provide electrolytes)\, cooling packs\, lightweight towels/bandanas
  (for soaking in water)\, handheld fans\, first aid supplies/gloves\, and 
 clean reusable water bottles. We'll swing by Safeway as the start of the 
 ride to pick up any extra supplies we need\, so don't sweat it if you 
 don't have time to grab supplies before coming to the ride.\n\nSOME THINGS
  TO KNOW ABOUT HEATSTROKE: 🥵🥵🥵\n\nPublic health officials usually 
 report a spike in heat-related deaths and illnesses whenever temps go into
  the mid nineties and above. \n\nHeatstroke is a medical emergency and 
 should always be taken seriously. Signs of heatstroke include inability to
  speak/slurred speech\, disorientation\, extreme lethargy\, and fainting. 
 In animals\, fast panting and/or abnormally sluggish behavior (for 
 example\, a wild animal that does not run away when you approach) may 
 indicate heat illness.\n\n🆘🧍🏾‍♀️For humans\, when heatstroke is 
 identified you should call 911 first and then move the person out of the 
 sun\, remove excess layers of clothing\, and start cooling them by dousing
  in water\, fanning\, and applying cold packs. On a hot day\, do NOT 
 assume that someone who is lying down outside is just sleeping or drunk– 
 check to make sure that they are okay! Do not offer drinks to anyone who 
 is having trouble talking\, as liquid may be a choking hazard. If you're 
 not sure whether you're looking at heatstroke or an overdose\, it's not a 
 bad idea to treat it like both and give Narcan if you have 
 it.\n\n🐿️🐦‍⬛For furred/feathers animals\, you can also wet and fan them 
 but do *not* use ice water as this can cause constriction of blood vessels
  and further trap heat. Handle wildlife as little as possible while 
 relocating to a cooler place\, then seek help from a certified wildlife 
 rescuer or emergency vet. \n\n🌳🌲Don't forget about trees! Newly planted 
 trees particularly suffer during heat waves\, and trees planted at new 
 developments\, schools\, and commercial complexes may not have someone 
 checking in on them. The best way to water a tree is with a very slow drip
  system: add a pinprick hole to the cap of a gallon jug\, fill up with 
 water\, then bury the top of the jug in soil (ideally directly beneath the
  far edge of the tree's canopy\, where rain would naturally fall) to 
 slowly drain. Young trees may need 20 gallons per week.\n\nHappy climate 
 change summer! 🫠\nMeet at 5\, roll at 5:15\, catch us at Hawthorne
