From its basketball team to its signature sunshine, Miami always brings the heat. But now that extreme heat is the norm, the city has hired a first of its kind, a 'Chief Heat Officer.'

Guests on our environmental roundtable: 
Beth Daley — editor and general manager of The Conversation, U.S. 
Cabell Eames — legislative manager at the Better Future Project, a Massachusetts-based grassroots climate-action organization. 
Dr. Aaron Bernstein — interim director of The Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, a pediatrician at Boston Children’s Hospital, and an assistant professor of pediatrics at Harvard Medical School.
