## Resource

Nevada’s hottest cities are racing against rising temperatures as heat-related deaths surge, forcing lawmakers to act. While tree planting and shade initiatives gain momentum, the real challenge lies in equitable access to water and cooling centers—especially as heat lingers past sunset. Clark County and Las Vegas are drafting policies and inventorying facilities, while Washoe County works to bridge urban-rural gaps. But not all tree efforts are succeeding—North Las Vegas swapped heat-tolerant for drought-tolerant species after costly failures. And with warehouses amplifying the urban heat island effect, officials are weighing whether developers must include heat-mitigation plans. The clock is ticking to keep communities safe.
