The markdown content starting with this H1 won’t be rendered with the current category layout because _layouts/category.html does not output {{ content }} (it only uses page.description and then renders the tool grid). Either update the category layout to render the page body (and preferably use page.title for the heading), or remove the unused markdown sections from this page to avoid dead/duplicated content.

These pages define permalinks under /categories/<slug>/, but the site navigation and tool sidebar currently link to /categories/ (and /categories/#<slug>). Since there is no page with permalink: /categories/, the “Categories” nav link will still 404, and sidebar links won’t reach these new pages. Add a landing page at /categories/ and/or update the existing links to point at these permalinks.

# Heat Management Tools

Urban heat islands can raise temperatures by 1-7°F (0.6-3.9°C) compared to surrounding areas, increasing energy costs, heat-related illness, and mortality. These tools help cities assess, monitor, and mitigate heat impacts through data analysis, planning, and intervention strategies.

## Key Challenges Addressed

- Urban heat island effect
- Heat stress and public health
- Extreme heat events
- Energy demand from cooling
- Vulnerable population protection

## Common Use Cases
