Keeping in mind the horrible 'baby dies in hot car' threads we 've seen recently, I thought it was worth mentioning that today is National Heatstroke Prevention Day and government organizers are asking people to help share the information if they can. The thread title's one of their logos. From the press release, the statistics are shocking.
'Nearly every 10 days, a child dies from being left in a hot vehicle. To spread the word for National Heatstroke Prevention Day, the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Safe Kids Worldwide and the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) are calling on the public to help prevent future tragedies by sharing important safety tips via Twitter and Facebook.'
Here are the links to the FB and twitter

And here is the link to the press release which contains the above links and more, as well as a list of useful safety tips.
