came the wells fast, double amputee, to reach the summit of everest. he says henry intends things, expedition changed mountaineering forever. the real path that they're really heretic thing that it and ship it teasing to was i stepped into a place where, you know, other human being had being and, and doing that. yeah. i had of a guess enabled all of us to know that we can do it as well. if it's for amounts in there and i'll bring them out to me and my whole life. ears for amounts and ears, but lot will come actually. it's a man, sneering, you know, it's the game that you really need to be at. it's a game that i thought i would never be able to get to when i 1st had my legs amputated. but i ranted they came to understand that, that are good. and so for me, it was a, the understanding that it's an up another whole layer of complexity. another whole layer of, of, if you copy the slow double names, you tell you on the mountain you need to climb the sign speed. so it takes

a much bigger, told on your body and but you know, i had to stand on the top. that's fantastic, but even better is to be on the bottom and look back up. nothing that you've done it. the, this is out is there are these, you top stories. tension is building between subs and ethnic albanians and the town is veteran in northern cost of our ethnic subs have gathered outside a city whole that's being called in by cost of in police. angry about the election of ethnic albanian may is on friday buttons for account when demonstrations blocked the officials from entry. you know, as a bank has moved from rich on a local says, hey, i tried to enter the municipality building just behind this police line. now what happened was the police stopped them defied some guests and the people back tough,

but the argument they make up the majority in these northern areas of cost of oh, they don't believe that the meds that were elected the legit too much on the protesting nato has all costs for to deescalate the united kingdom, germany and many of the austin costs of owed to de escalate the situation. but from the looks of it had the minds of people that i've turned out. it doesn't seem like it's going to happen. so like as president red chip type at one has been re elected for a 3rd time. he won more than 52 percent of the votes in a run off on sunday is rival chemical. it's the road, new gods. 48 percent. the quaint in military says they shot down more than 60 russian drones and cruise themselves on monday. officials say russia hit military facilities in west and ukraine and several loss, whitehead in the capital case. not here as president deluxe is set to be sworn in the coming hours. bullet attainable, one, a tight selection in february. and the results though all still being challenged.

and course he's being integrated as non jerry of face is widespread in security, and slowing economic growth. monday mach 7 to years since the new zealand admin, henry and the party tons, a new guy became the fast people to reach the summit of mounts that verse. thousands of climb is house in scale, the himalayan mountains and a hundreds have died. that is all i have life as well as always. there's a website now does. there is out. com, where you can check out on top stories. the stream coming up next. oscar winning actor cate blanchett discuss is how advocating for refugees has changed her outlook people. i met for incredibly welcoming environmental to give and talks about the challenges facing the un with the ongoing global crisis unit, c. r conroy, each one of these people. so it just reinforced to me the importance of the international community to maintain humanitarian aid. you and hcr, goodwill in basset or cate blanchett, talks to l,

just 0. the . hi anthony. ok, welcome to the string tonight. as i mentioned that i used to be a weather full costa. yeah, i know once or twice when i was black in the day, full costing was uh, i would often talk about a bunch cheap, all have into effect and that's what a c t really is much more key than the areas around it. and that's because we, as people, we create a lot of can't use machinery, the buildings exemption as well. that is up and all into effect in the next 30 years about a 1000 cities that i expect to, to experience extremely key ways. we're going to find out why and then what we do about in this edition of the screen. we start with, if the goodman, who has a very good question either so what's causing extreme heat and cities around the world and why is that we're saying? well, we know that we have a change in climate, but in addition to this,

we also have made modifications to the urban environment. we have buildings and roads and parking lots, and those all absorb heat during the day and release it at night. we also have a lack of trees and other vegetation that would otherwise provide shade and evaporative cooling. and finally, we producer on heat and cities, we have air conditioners, cars, and other engines and machinery which generate heat and increase the temperature well. so there's more of that air conditioning when it's hot out. so we contribute to the problem by releasing more climate change in emissions into the atmosphere. where discussing a stream sheet in cities, what would you like to add to our conversation? you can be in our conversation, we might see it in the comments section on youtube. so joining us to discuss this issue, feel free towns to really out in the cities chief need of a set. eugenia called both for new deals from the daily india at the job valid on the i a fellow at the center of a policy research. and also joining us. we have christina, we the bro, she's

a chief heat officer santiago, and she like hello, welcome everybody. this is a tough subject to talk about because a lot of people who don't realize how incredibly important is it's a life and death situation for many of us around the world of eugene, your festival, a chief st officer. what did they do? that's your job title. thank you, sammy, and 1st of all, that's the question i get asked all the time. what is the chief because he said, and what do you do? well, my role as a local role and the chief you can fit the role is that have been in the shape that is driven by the hash resilience center and the atlantic into a pap issue with the team. and because of the challenges that exist face and in terms of extreme tv. and so my role is to work with local media and

a national government to ensure that we find an implement solution that and locally lead to ensure that we make gay and help the most one will be the next to sites and to adapt to extreme crystal that's the rope. yeah. cause any, what you'll do in a very similar role and the other side of the well from where the genia is. what keeps you up at night? what is your biggest, biggest, biggest challenge as well? it's the 1st of all with thank you for having me. i'm 1st of all is to ensure to have the agenda in place to to connect with the 30 piece and an old and the decision makers in order to actually implemented the extend keep agenda. it's like, i feel like if we don't like act today we, it's impossible to, to insure like a future for our 2 arisen to future. so it's, i really urge them agenda and i'm like, i'm doing the we've a other is is he to like go gene?

yeah, we met for us. it's all female. so you're toasting like 7, cd $88.00 series now is has been said to wait for $22.00 to learn from each other to and learn best practices, things like that. so it's a great opportunity to describe this role. let's talk about st issue. and if i practical, i added, so can you give us an example from india literally from the past month for so which stream sheet has been? definitely yeah, thanks for having me for me. um. yeah, we've actually had a couple of incidents in the last few weeks alone. um, there was an incident in one of the suburbs and them by the 13 people die at a job doing a social gathering. and this is actually on the 1st tends to be saw a large scale loss of life exclusively due to heat attribute at the heat. and just yesterday again, we saw a type of

a woman who was 9 months pregnant walking, looking for the hospital and had to walk about 7 kilometers and died in the process . so these are may tragic story as an effect. the people that i'm most wondered about to and also the people who have absolutely no protection. thank you. and i'm just looking at a tweet and a series of tweets about how heat ways are increasing in chalet. that sometimes can be a little bit like, okay, another spot, but it's changed the way it has changed. i think has changed so much. christina, can you give us an example of how much to change and how what if you notice in the past decade oh side. yes, actually that's sweet. it was because we had the 7 heath way up a year. um, we are in the full were not supposed to have these type of heat. we have like the a couple of days ago, which was the 29th,

the it tonight in degrees celsius. and that's a lot for a, a, b, c. some of what we've seen these type of course, of course, game of changing, but then the last 20 years we have for example, the 1st, the last 20 years, we have a 45 k to wait. and the last ticket we doubled up in we have 84. so it's like increasing robert lee and people is feeling it is about in not only the extreme temperatures, but also the minimum of being racing on the list of the heat waves are being increasing as well. so we have really, really low heat waves. we've really concerning temperature. so of course, if we have the data, but also people are still in need these days when they start panicking. christina, it's when she said that was the my reaction is a when do you start panicking?

i would say today like right now yesterday actually because i think that's that's our role. we do team and the other is the totals he's about is telling people like when they say to miss keith, i'm dying. i'm dying. the business is basically just too much actually, that's a fact that might happen. if you don't take missions. yeah. nobody has to die from explain, keep is so easy to protect people only with drinking water. they dressed as taking shape. so we actually have kind of, i me see the soft, the to, to address. i mean, the only thing we need to do. so now the only, but one of the things we need to do is actually inform people about this. and of course in the implement the rest of the information is key here. yeah. the, i think you because as soon as you go 2nd got it. thank you. sorry. sorry about that . you know, but i know, i just want to add like, you know, 7 paper that's quite inside the book. it's,

it's so psyche how similar this story in india in terms of like on breaking teeth waves. um, you know, this happening was the hottest on like our last year we had the hot this much on blackboard loss, you know, 5 or 10 percent of india is week talk just as of the water, new clean was sticking off and so, and they had to cut off its beat exports and that led to a global spike in wheat. and it's a band in the phenomenal, it's a 3 fourths of the countries, geographically was hit by, we'd be cheap. we have at some point that the other last year. so it was just striking how, you know, it's south asia and south america, but it's, it's so incredibly similar in terms of like the diet effects heterogeneous. so it's almost the same. it's almost to the same thing and that we haven't hit the town. and the past week has been very sweet to go for the rest of them. and the

sound is we've been experience and intense and for a long sheets way. over the past 20 years, we've seen the, the population of us in the band and business as a result for the nice nation, but also a combination of climate factors. majority of the people are leaving in a row in assignments, and most of them are women. and we've seen extreme, she's badly affecting the quote, she will step to leaving the needing to cope failure and you know, low income levels. and so a lot of people are moving into the city and the way dramatically that the town is built. it's beautiful but also challenge because it's located and surrounded around hills and in valley, so as to seek to expand. we experience mac, the deforestation of the hillside,

but also the i'm are you next to send. and so that is net to several climate vulnerability such as landslide and most slides in 2017, a 1000 people lost their lives in a single day in the 3000 most the homes and the single day. and the problem that we have in sit down when compared to other teaching. when you look at the, the temperatures, it's around the, the highest, the maximum temperatures around $35.00 degrees celsius. when you compare it to that, to julio india, you will say, oh, temperature is a low, but the build up environment and the context within the sound is what makes its way to go. so what he was and what you would use the temperatures. ok, a temperature and one part of the well with the feeling was feel quite cold in another part of the world say school. so what are you used to? what is your environment like using a help pulse? remember?

because we always have getting some feedback from our audience who are watching online on youtube. cities where a being mentioned job pull in india, communities in a rom morocco, a, g, egypt, and saudi arabia right here. oh, experiencing extreme heat, but what i love about, i guess today on this topic is no one needs to die because of extreme heat in cities. there are so many ways to counteract it. and to create shade, i want to take you to somewhere between and knows this very well and it's, it's become a really great phrase, free trial tree town and see what he does have a look. this is what the math, a freetown has to say about this project. become a tree. he's actually from fish of 10 ton, a 1000000 trees over to a lot of sampling trees for growing, which means communities are involved, which means we're tracking them. we trees are monitoring that grow when you like to hillside to mangroves. to 4th of air is

a 1000000 cheese will not fix plenty to choose, but it will reduce flooding on land lines. you will ensure that we bring bio diversity into our cities. still ensure the demand areas where all fishes are restored, it will really make a significant every single one of the guests are noting trees. trees with the onset, including joanna frank, to joins is an extra voice in our conversation. so we've heard about the problems, and the degree is the extreme temperatures around many cities in the world. and you want us to as well, okay, this is what we need to do about it is yes of every year, high temperatures account some more than 350000 desk globally. and further pose a threat to health by increasing the likelihood of extreme weather pool of quality flooding, and damage to valuable infrastructure. all of these risk factors have

a measurable impact on our health. and the health of our community is, however, one effective strategy that we can only use within us it is, is to plant more street trees. dense tree canopy is a valuable defense against the rising temperatures and could prevent up to a 3rd of those hit heat. but i to death. however, we need to act quickly because we are losing 36000000 trees. yeah. i using it very briefly. explain why tree is be all set because if you're putting a little something like this, that is not going to help. right? and you can't just plug annually that that's it, it's $2.00 oh, $3.00 decades was of attention for that tree for activated. we gotta save us, which is because that time span when at city is not gonna be extremely hot. so what's the point of a little tree? how's that going out?

the truth has a lot to do. an environmental space of all the very existence depends on trees. we give out the c o 2 and i'm reading the oxygen and oxygen is coming from the training. they help protect the environment. so 1st of all, in terms of latrete plans in packaging. the reason why we've been very successful is because we are deliberates. we are deliberate in tempting, but also deliberate in royce and ensuring that we tracking the trees persistent every teach. yes, we know that we're going to take a while to get to the effect that we need the desired results. the shade in that we need from trees, but they play a very big role in terms of stabilizing the civilized and, and to break the b. i the what christina scott on judge joining the surgery. like,

sorry i, i get is excited. it like at least any, do you know, because when i 1st heard about in the town to town project program, actually i copy, we copy, we did the same thing the same because we don't have the same type black dotted line of course. but we, we decided to go with the big piece as well. so we are something is facing something. yeah. well, but they're not, i mean, it's way more or less than that. but when we have the talent of blessing, that on the streets, like when it, where people are going to need them to shop in the next. if it is a 100 years of people go to work and recreate. so it's so keep silence because we're not putting them in parks, which is might be easier by putting them on on whether used to be cement or used to be like our sidewalk. so it's expensive, it's tricky. but we were convinced that we need to do that in order to it, to,

to have the a wave of life for the future. i think just wondering as yeah go ahead chat, share your thoughts with us. oh yeah. yeah. just just quickly jump in on the tree point um, uh, one of the things, a notices and cities in the global. so i'll definitely take that to use in india. is it that massive in, in equities when it comes to shade light. so usually below the engine. ready costs neighborhoods would be interesting, conclusions have absolutely no shade and those are the people that need it the most . and so they, there's active decision making that governments need to do about where to invest these trees. even if you only see, start seeing results and then 20 years, like you said, i'm just going to go to youtube just briefly because we're getting suggestions from our audience who are watching on youtube. so brent says painting surfaces white's break. did you see? well, i have lined up to share, but i would, it's,

we just on the same wavelength here because painting services white really helps. i'm going to take it to a project in new delhi. i'm, you can hear a little bit more about it because we off. so many ways of counteracting a streaming is in cities pacing areas. one is one of them. how to look the m s thinking throw on ben, open a ball ascetic. i'm going to be. but those ms. m a made me so most of the bank of yeah, letting me i knew i the, the band and dave and as the thing the, the, my, the, to the, the, the, the me let's be paid by nancy and into the school. edwin, am i'm giving a bunch fans a good i make a man of this the talk is that after getting me the, the of the happen again. sorry to me. i'm up. let me put you but know where be need to see that as the audi body out. but of those things easy to get data. mitchell, gotta been a pass by the god when it that but how do i be that lives in a b, a delay tell you that the modem at and i'm going to commit to the spend to deal with is a look back. yeah,

i need to banding it. it'd be one go. it's milly good. it means that the was for met that over a picture this, this movement, this trend has changed. st. offices who are providing the areas to, to be more prone to heat waves. india is one of those regions, a country that will be problem to more heat ways, but you don't have a single chief heat officer. that's the problem i take, isn't it? yeah, so it's actually great to be in this conversation and, and show a lot of what she sees officers are doing. i've heard all the plans of instituting t c positions, but it's of a new governance phenomenal, right? it's, it's only a couple of years or so, but um she was me promising it looks like because to have one. busy us and manage the entire portfolio which stretches across so many different buttons on the big problems we find in most indian governance context is it is no single entity that's

responsible for sheet by the impacts on agriculture, the impacts on what the impacts on the best environment and all of these things made they belong to. i'm thinking of this into boston, so in a minute can useful to have all of this concentrated in one 4th full? i'm going to share some of christina outlook. christina, this is your uh santiago. heat protocol here, explaining what is going on in the time that looks like a really sick brochure. and also talking about some of the methods and processes of, of reducing the heat is santiago. this comes from the actually acknowledging that there is going to be a problem that the is a problem already. and so you need buying from some local government from federal government as well. otherwise, what the people do is they can't do things by themselves. can may of course of

course, actually i'm happy that in we, we have our 1st protocol. we don't belong to the last december and the so it's a simple one. but they did was to install the, the, the importance of having a protocol to embrace the extension to agenda. and i'm so happy and i makes my job easier that i have to support if i were reaching a governor level a because coming actually either sup support is key in addressing climate change unexplained heat. so because you need to negotiate with other agencies to need to in communicate to the public. and then the mr says you are taking investments, a lot of the technical expertise, but also the political support. so we have that. and i'm, we have a workforce for the within the 1st year of a where and says, i begin my see to, oh so i'm happy to get that easy. i'm oh, yes,

go ahead. go ahead. sorry. but i know i just want to add one important point about this is, you know, with the protocols and so many different actions and solutions, google's trees and so on, all of it requires money. and we sort of looked across heat action plans across the world. so you've action plans in india, and one thing we sort of consistently notice is that she funding is a scarcely available because it's such a new area of public policy as only now getting attention to the media to seek players and. ready these a to public communication from carpets. and so that's just one area of focus for the next 4 or 510 years, i suspect a user. now, what do you want me to be? let me just bring in one more voice here and this is as the voice of lawrence let us by just a little bit earlier. he's studying at the university of nairobi, but he's in nigeria and, and he's listed some of the major issues that nigeria has. and i know eugene, yeah,

one of the ways that you were case, what can we do to get that? have a nice into norris and immediately off the back. what can we do to get his thoughts? we see that within the country to the the express increasing frequency and intensity of sheets with a dyslexia fits human health, hunger, cultural and natural to assist in many communities across the country is headquartered. differentiates related to an es is such as true stress dehydration agitation expo shown, and also discomfort recorded, particularly among children and dues leaving on the line health conditions, muscle, extreme heat, sure things for to secrete screwed into country club solutions due to high temperature virginia. go ahead, what can we do together? so as you said, it needs to be a collective effort. we need to work together and community a part of the problem,

the more the part of the solution. so as we're working together to be plans, we also need to ensure that we bring in the communities along. we need to ensure that we increase awareness around why he, why this is happening. what did the week going to, what can we do together to protect the environment? but also at the national level, we need to be deliberate in driving sustainable solutions. i'm across the same thing. we need to ensure that to me, implementing policies in, in, in 4th and not that will ensure assistant ability and at the global level of like when he gets said, we need to ensure that it is then then available to do all the beautiful work and signing that me, as we've done in different spaces, i want to tell you, guess that your conversation has inspired a lot of ideas from out. we it's as well about posting locals about what should be

constructed and how it should be constructed. buildings designed with coverings and shade as well. and also remembering that most in churches and temples are often places where you can actually get the spikes from the heat, water, and shade as well. thank you, christina aditya, eugenia as well for coming to our show talking about the climate crisis, but also bringing plenty of solutions as well. to remind us from the very beginning of the show when you told us nobody needs to die because of extreme heat. thank you so much, being part of this conversation you chipped us. thank you for joining us. i will see you next time on the take care of the

the world where the news never is understanding what's behind the headlines is more important than ever. it takes listening to the people behind the news from the holes, the power to the people in the street, to the journalists reporting their story. it's that intimacy that makes every international story local at heart. i'm only can be the host of the take a daily news podcast powered by the global reportings to the elders. here, find us where ever you get your pod. cast. the story of a small community. in one of mexico's most dangerous states standing up to criminal

court house and corrupt politicians, see we don't want to fall additions anymore. they just this tonight, the people in the last episode of democracy. maybe we explore how trans eldest, let the fights for self determination. pretty savvy, and that's what i'm thinking that the now coast was the same was thinking of the 2 ends government by the people on al jazeera. you had a white judge why, prosecutor white tops and this lasted 16 when it happened. gets kneeled. i've been in prison more years than i've been for you on the street. there are some folks born may. if it's their child who is making these mistakes, they don't believe that they're going to add gold fines' troubles to tennessee to investigate why the state has one of the longest sentences in the us for juveniles convicted of murder. 51 years behind bars on a jersey to the.
