heat mitigation

Heat mitigation refers to strategies and actions taken to reduce the impact of heat, especially in urban areas where temperatures can be higher due to human activities. This includes creating green spaces like parks and gardens, using reflective materials in buildings and roads, and improving urban planning to enhance airflow. These measures help lower temperatures, improve comfort, and reduce energy consumption. By addressing heat, we can protect public health, support ecosystems, and make cities more resilient to climate change.
