Hitzephasen weltweit beeinträchtigen auch die schulischen Leistungen von Kindern. Klimaanlagen, nicht nur in Schulen, sondern auch zu Hause, können hier gegensteuern. Ob dieser Hitzeschutz verfügbar ist, hängt allerdings vom sozialen Status der Eltern ab, wie eine neue WZB-Studie zeigt.

New in Social Forces: Breathing Unequal Air😷 Our study shows that immigrant minorities in England & Germany face higher air pollution exposure🏭—and moving doesn’t help🚶. In England, disparities are 3x larger than in Germany 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/sf/s... #EnvironmentalJustice #Inequality #AirPollution

Zunehmend ungleiche Mietkostenbelastung www.bib.bund.de/Publikation/... • Mietkostenbelastung insbesondere für Personen mit Niedrigeinkommen angestiegen • Ungleichheit der Mietkostenbelastung bei Zugewanderten stärker angestiegen • Realeinkommensverluste bei Personen mit Niedrigeinkommen
Die Abbildung zeigt die Entwicklung der Mietkostenbelastung zwischen 1990 und 2020 am obersten und untersten Quintil der Einkommensverteilung. Am oberen Ende der Verteilung blieb die Mietkostenbelastung relativ stabil, am unteren Ende der Verteilung stieg die Belastung an. Bei Zugewanderten mit niedrigen Einkommen war die Steigerung von niedrigem Niveau kommend besonders ausgeprägt.
