**New Resource! Cooling Futures: A Narrative Landscape and Messaging Guide on Heat and Cooling**
The report provides a vital roadmap for shifting the public discourse on extreme heat in urban India.

Designed for creators, communicators, and ecosystem organizers, this resource offers actionable, values-based audience strategies to help reframe cooling not merely as an individual luxury, but as a collective right rooted in dignity, care, and long-term climate resilience.

For too long, the stories, frames, language and voices talking about climate change have been jargon-heavy, technical and distant. The way climate is talked about doesn’t reflect the everyday ways in which our lives, commutes, health, food systems, economy and communities are being affected.
The Climate Narrative Hub is here to change that.
We exist to help people see themselves in the climate story—and act accordingly.
