A woman walks along a row of misters on June 19, 2017 in Tempe, Ariz., when the temperatures were over 110 degrees.

NPR is working on a series of stories on what happens when people, animals and plants can't cool down. We would like to know how rising temperatures are affecting your life, business or community.
