À propos de cet audio

Problem: Heat waves are becoming increasingly frequent and severe due to climate change, posing significant threats to public health, the environment, and the energy infrastructure. Urban areas, with their dense populations and heat-absorbing surfaces, are particularly vulnerable. The rising demand for cooling during these periods strains energy systems, leading to higher greenhouse gas emissions and exacerbating the problem. Traditional cooling methods often rely on energy-intensive technologies, which can be unsustainable and expensive. By incorporating energy efficiency measures, such as advanced cooling technologies and smarter building designs, alongside nature-based solutions like urban greening and green roofs, cities can not only reduce the demand for energy but also create more sustainable and resilient environments. These strategies are essential to mitigating the effects of heat waves while ensuring long-term environmental and economic stability.

Key message: Energy efficiency and nature-based solutions are critical for mitigating the impact of heat waves, reducing energy demand, and enhancing urban resilience.
