I am in Baltimore City as well. The same impacts that you raised came to mind for me as well plus air quality. Some time ago, there was a push to create asthma-friendly schools. Given that the risk for asthma related complications may increase over the coming decades coupled with the existing poor conditions of our school buildings with insufficient temperature control, poor air quality, etc. it makes sense to revisit the asthma-friendly schools program and explore what steps can be taken to make our schools more suitable for students/staff/family members/visitors etc. with that condition.
