Climate change is predicted to increase the frequency of potentially hazardous heat conditions across the United States, putting the 2 million incarcerated people at risk for heat-related health conditions. Texas and Florida accounted for 52% of total exposure despite holding 12% of all incarcerated people.

JESSE M. FURMAN, United States District Judge, in UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, -v- GUSTAVO CHAVEZ, … the Metropolitan Detention Center (“MDC”) in Brooklyn — has had its share of problems. In winter 2019, a power outage left inmates without light or heat for a week while a polar vortex swept the East Coast.

Extreme heat can be deadly, or harsh winter weather can result in viruses spreading rapidly due to the proximity of AIC (Adults In Custody).

·      If you have a medical condition that puts you at higher risk, it is important to document this in the PSR, where Compassionate Release through the Second Look Act may become necessary.

·      Climate Change, Extreme Heat in Prisons, and then the cumulative dangerous effect for those taking these medications:

·      Antidepressants (1. SSRIs increase sweating, increasing the risk of dehydration; 2. Tricyclic antidepressants, or TCAs, may decrease sweating, making it harder to cool off),

·      Anticholinergics, CNS Depressants, Heart Meds, Anti-Psychotics, and Insulin.
