Looks like a mask (wildfire smoke), evaporative cooling neck gaiter (?), light long sleeved clothing to protect from UV, and a ton of ACs running because it’s hot as fuck.

The neck wrap around is for UV protection, it's just part of their cap. It completely covers the neck front and back.

Mask could also just be for dust during droughts. And the hood neck thing maybe just to shield from the sun?

Yeah when I go for a long bike ride I put on a balaclava to prevent sunburn. As well as bee throatage. There's a little bit of my eyebrows exposed, but I also have a hat on.
