## Interpreting the data
HLS imagery in support of Environmental Justice shows the impact of flooding for Hurricanes Maria and Ida that made landfall in Puerto Rico (2017) and New Orleans, LA (2021) respectively. The imagery displayed is a shortwave infrared (SWIR) false color composite that provides enhanced contrast to detect flood extent. In SWIR false color composite imagery, water is identified by dark blue colors, vegetation is bright green, clouds are white, and ice is blue.

The Black Belt’s rich soil played a pivotal role in shaping the region's history and demographics. This fertile land transformed the area into an agricultural powerhouse, making it a cornerstone of the cotton economy, which was heavily reliant on enslaved African American labor. After the Civil War, many former slaves remained in the area, working as sharecroppers and tenant farmers. The region became a significant cultural and political area, particularly noted for its role in the civil rights movement. Despite its agricultural legacy, the Black Belt has faced economic and social challenges, including poverty and limited access to education and healthcare, which continue to impact its predominantly Black population.

The combination of rising temperatures and an older workforce underscores the urgent need for adaptive strategies to protect both the health of the population and the viability of these economic sectors.Addressing these intertwined challenges requires targeted policies and investments in climate resilience measures. By enhancing education, healthcare, and job opportunities, along with adopting sustainable agricultural practices, the Black Belt can work towards a more resilient and prosperous future in the face of climate change.

Addressing these intertwined challenges requires targeted policies and investments in climate resilience measures. By enhancing education, healthcare, and job opportunities, along with adopting sustainable agricultural practices, the Black Belt can work towards a more resilient and prosperous future in the face of climate change.
### To mitigate heat-related risks, several safeguards can be implemented:
- Improved Access to Cooling Centers: Establishing more cooling centers in rural areas can provide relief during extreme heat events
- Health Monitoring Programs: Implementing regular health check-ups for older adults working in agriculture can help prevent heat-related illnesses
