English to Portuguese: Climate Crisis improvement and suffering from people
Source text - English These Women Are Trying To Humanize The Climate Crisis
Extreme Weather Survivors is using personal stories to get people to care about the climate crisis.
It was Labor Day in 2022 when Amy Dishion received the phone call that would change her life: Her husband had died of heat stroke.
“My entire life just fell apart,” Dishion said. “I lost my best friend and the father of my child.”
They had moved to Phoenix for her husband Evan’s medical residency in neurology. Just a few months before, Dishion had given birth to their daughter, Chloe.
Their life as a young family was falling into place until that fateful morning in September, when Evan, who was 32 at the time, set out to hike with a few of his friends. They started early in the morning, but they were unprepared for just how quickly it would heat up. Her husband eventually began to show signs of heat stroke before passing out. His friends left him under a tree while they went in search of cell service to call for help.
In many ways, Dishion said, the tragedy was preventable. The friend group was hiking in extreme heat without enough water and didn’t turn around when they should have. But high temperatures are also a risk that is growing every summer due to the climate crisis, she noted. More and more people are unaware of the dangers of extreme weather even as it becomes more deadly with each passing year. This year Phoenix broke records for experiencing 113 days in a row over 100 degrees, surpassing the previous city record set in 1993 of 76 days.
The heat didn’t just take Dishion’s husband. As a young mother, it also left her in a tough financial spot. She had planned to be a stay-at-home mom and had moved to support Evan. Suddenly she didn’t have an income and had to move back to her hometown of Salem, Oregon, to live with Evan’s family.
“It feels like being displaced, right on top of losing somebody in a very preventable way,” she said.
Now she’s speaking out through an organization called Extreme Weather Survivors, which aims to raise awareness over the toll of climate change. She’s not the only person sharing her story. There’s Shauntá Floyd, from Houston, whose power went out for a week when Hurricane Beryl hit this July. Beryl was originally forecast as a tropical storm, but ended up making landfall in Texas as a Category 1 hurricane. Floyd spent a night in her sweltering home without any air conditioning before evacuating to a cousin’s house. Millions of people lost power in the storm.

Extreme Weather Survivors está usando histórias pessoais para fazer com que as pessoas se preocupem com as crises climáticas.
Era feriado do dia do trabalho quando Amy Dishion recebeu uma chamada que mudaria sua vida: Seu marido morreu devido à insolação.
"Minha vida toda foi arruinada" disse Dashion. "eu perdi meu melhor amigo e o pai das minha filha."
Eles se mudaram para Phoenix pela residência médica de neurologia de seu marido Evan. Alguns meses antes, Dishion teria dado à luz para sua filha, Chloe.
Sua vida como uma família jovem corria bem até aquela fatídica manhã de setembro, quando Evan, cujo havia 32 anos de idade na época, saiu para uma caminhada com alguns de seus amigos. Eles começaram logo pela manhã, mas estavam despreparados sob o aumento repentino da mudança temperatura . O marido de Dishion logo começou a mostrar sinais de insolação antes de ir a óbito. Seus amigos o deixaram debaixo de uma árvore enquanto procuravam sinais de telefone para ajudá-lo.
A tragédia poderia ter sido evitada de vários modos, disse Dishion. o grupo de amigos estavam caminhando num calor extremo sem água o bastante e não retornaram quando tiveram a chance. Mas temperaturas altas são também um risco crescente em todo verão por conta da crises climáticas, afirmou ela. Mais e mais pessoas não sabem dos perigos dos climas extremos mesmo que eles se tornem mais mortíferos com o passar dos anos. Esse ano Phoenix quebrou os recordes presenciando 113 dias em sequência com mais de 100 graus, ultrapassando o antigo recorde da cidade realizado em 1993 por 76 dias.
O calor não só levou o marido de Dishion. Sendo uma mãe jovem, isso também a deixou num estado financeiro difícil. Ela planejava ser uma mãe dona de casa e se mudou para apoiar Evan. De repente ela não tinha mais rendimentos e teria de voltar à sua cidade natal de Salem, Oregon, para viver com a família de Evan.
"É como ser trocada de lugar à força, e ao mesmo tempo perder alguém em uma situação que poderia ter sido evitada," disse ela.
Agora ela fala por uma organização chamada Extreme Weather Survivors, na qual planeja prevenir e aumentar o conhecimento sobre
mudanças climáticas. Ela não é a única compartilhando a sua história. Há também, Shauntá Floyd, de Houston, que ficou sem energia por uma semana quando o Furacão Beryl passou em julho. Beryl foi originalmente alertado como uma tempestade tropical, mas acabou por fazer um aterro no Texas como furacão de categoria 1. Floyd passou a noite em sua transpirante casa sem Ar-condicionado antes de abrigar-se na residência de um primo. Milhões de pessoas ficaram sem energia na tempestade.
