Axton Sharpe and Ryan Lawson sat among the unsanctioned tent camps lining the sidewalk about a block from the State Capitol on a 95-degree day earlier this month, explaining how they deal with Denver’s oppressive summer heat.
Concern about water supply, crop yield, drought and wildfire conditions were underscored in Colorado after the National Weather Service declared last month Denver’s second-hottest July on record in the past 150 years. Peter Goble, a climatologist at Colorado State University, is one of many who attribute the rising temperatures across Colorado, the nation and the world to the effects of climate change.
A man experiencing homelessness holds onto his thermos that he was able to fill with ice during dangerous heat on Aug. 11, 2022, in Denver. “Folks are pretty generous, I guess. You know, they give you bottled water sometimes,” Deleon said. “When it gets this hot, though, man, is it hard to stay hydrated. We just can’t get enough to drink, which is why we like to be near the water.”
Simmons Perry, 23, said her strategy of keeping cool was to try to acquire ice, umbrellas and plenty of water, although she admitted that “umbrellas only work sometimes. It’s too hot.”
