The School Year Is Getting Hotter. How Does Heat Affect Student Learning and Well-Being?
“Does heat affect student learning?
Yes, heat makes it harder for students to learn. Students perform worse on tests when they’re hot, according to multiple studies by economists R. Jisung Park and Joshua Goodman, among others.
One study tracked 10 million secondary students who took the PSAT, a standardized exam used to identify students for college scholarships, multiple years between 2001 and 2014. The researchers found that cumulative heat exposure decreases the productivity of instructional time—without school air conditioning, a 1 degree hotter school year reduced that year’s learning by 1 percent.
The effect was three times more damaging for Black and Hispanic students than for white students, that study found. A similar discrepancy was found for students from low-income households compared to their affluent peers.”

“The greatest illusion the middle class holds is that they can ‘fix’ poverty from the outside, without ever understanding the lived experience of those within it.”

“The middle class, in all their naiveté, often believe that they can solve the problems of the lower class with the same tools they use to maintain their own status. But they are worlds apart, and what they fail to realize is that poverty isn’t a problem to be solved, but a condition to be survived.”

Thai Weed Heats Up: Advocates Against Reclassification, Push for Cannabis Act
“Prasitchai explained that the network has proposed forming a joint committee to research cannabis in four dimensions:
Whether cannabis poses more health risks than cigarettes and alcohol.
Whether cannabis has caused more severe social harm in the last two years compared to cigarettes and alcohol.
Whether the medicinal properties of cannabis are superior to those of cigarettes and alcohol.
Whether cannabis actually causes psychiatric disorders and brain damage in young people, as claimed by the government.
Once the research is complete, the results should determine the legal status of cannabis. If cannabis is found to be no more harmful than cigarettes and alcohol and is not a cause of psychiatric disorders or brain damage, it should be regulated under a cannabis law. If it proves to be more harmful, it should come under the Narcotics Act.”
