10:34 pm
are the facts in the next go to yes about a 1000 cities that i expect to, to experience extremely key ways we're gonna 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, if a so what's causing extreme heat and cities around the world and why is that worsening? 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. we also use 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.
10:35 pm
we're discussing a stream heat in cities. what would you like to add to our conversation? it can be in our conversation, we might see it in the comments section on youtube. so joining us to discuss this issue, feel free town, see what the on the cities chief need of a set. eugenia called both for new deal from the daily india at the jobs i looked at by a fellow at the center of a policy research and also joining us. we have christina with 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, a festival, a chief st officer. what did they do that to job title? a thank you, send me a, 1st of all, that's the question i get asked all the time. what was the chief because he said,
10:36 pm
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 brown resilience center and the atlantic into a pattern issue with the team. and because of the challenges that exist facing in terms of extreme kids. 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 the size to adapt to extreme priscilla. that's the rope. yeah. cause any, what you'll do in a very similar role in 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
10:37 pm
have the agenda in place to to connect with the 40 piece and an old and the decision makers in order to actually implement 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 it 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 series now is has been said to wait for 22 to live from each other to in their 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 initially from the past month for so which stream sheet has been deadly? you know, thanks for having me find me. um yeah, we've actually had
10:38 pm
a couple of incidents in the last few weeks alone. um there was an incident in one of the suburbs and them by that 13 people die at a job doing a social gathering. and this is actually on the 1st stands to be saw a lot, a 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 70 kilometers and died in the process. so these are, may tragic story, isn't affect the people that i'm most wonder about doing them off on the people who have absolutely no protection to he. and i'm just looking at a tweet and a series of tweets about how heat ways are increasing in chalet stops. sometimes can be a little bit like okay, another stop, but it's changed. the weather has changed. i think has changed so much. christina,
10:39 pm
can you give us an example of how much to change and how, what have you noticed in the past decade on the side? yes. actually the tweet because because we haven't the 7 heath way up a year and we are in the full, we're 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 decade we doubled up and we have 84. so it's like increasing robert lee and people is feeling it is about in not only the extreme temperatures,
10:40 pm
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 well we do team and the other is the totals. he's about it telling people like when they say to miss keith, i'm dying. i'm dying to pieces. these kids is 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, i'm sticking shape. so it's actually a kind of, i me see the soft, the to,
10:41 pm
to address. i mean, the, the only thing we need to do. so now the only about one of the things we need to do is actually inform people about this and of course and implement the rest of the information is key here. yeah, sure. can i the i think so. you can start searching as you go. second, got it. thank you. sorry. sorry about that. you know, but um, no, i just wanna add like, you know, 7 people have that's quite inside the book. it's, it's so psyche how similar it is to the story in india in terms of like on breaking teeth with. um, you know, describing was the hottest on like, or last year we had the heart this much on blackboard loss, you know, 5 or 10 percent of india is week drop. just as of the water. new clean was kicking off and so and they had to cut off its meat exports and that like too little to spike in wheat. um and it's a band in the phenomenon, right. so 3 fourths of the countries geographically,
10:42 pm
was hit by. we see we have at some point to the other last year. so it's 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. so heterogeneous. so it's almost the same. it's almost to the same, a cdn that we having here in town. and the past week has been the best way to go for residents. 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 businesses, the results for the nice nation, but also a combination of climate factors. majority of the people are leaving in a row in funding and was the federal government. and we've seen extreme, she's badly affecting the quote you will step to leaving the needing to
10:43 pm
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, and valley, so as to see, to expand. we experience mac, the deforestation of the hillside, but also the, i'm, are you next to the defense. and so that is net to several kind made one the. ringback searches landslide in most slides in 2017, a 1000 people lost their lives in a single day in the 3000 um, most of the homes and the single day. and the problem that we have and 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,
10:44 pm
to chew you 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 no use the temperature is all a temperature in one part of the world 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 help? pulse, remember, because we always have getting some feedback from our audience who are watching online on youtube. cities where a being mentioned, jump 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
10:45 pm
a look. this is what the math, a freetown has to say about this project. become a tree. he's obviously some official from 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 and live in new life to hillside, to mangroves, to force in areas. a 1000000 cheese will not fix plenty to choose, but it will reduce flooding lines lines. it will ensure that we bring bio diversity into our cities. still ensure the demand areas where all fishes are small are restored. it will really make a significant every single one of the guest annoying trees tray to the onset, including joanna frank, to join us an extra voice in our conversation. so we've heard about the problems,
10:46 pm
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 for more than 350000 desk globally. and further pose a threat to health by increasing the likelihood of extreme weather port, add 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 rising temperatures and could prevent up to a 3rd of those hit heat related death. however, we need to act quickly because we are losing 36000000 trees. yeah.
10:47 pm
all right, using it very briefly explain why tree is the all set because if you're pumping a little something like this, that is not going to help. right? and you can't just plant and leave it. that's it. it's 2 or 3 decades was of attention for that tree for it to be to be able to save us, which is a cause that time span when asked city is not going to be extremely haul. 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. busy 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
10:48 pm
deliberate in tempting but also deliberate in royce and ensuring that we tracking the trees the system every teach. yes, we know that going to take a while to get the, the effect that we need and the desired results, the shading 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 dealer. sorry, i, i get is excited. it like a listening or 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 is the same because we don't have the same type like deadline of course. but we, we decide to go with the big piece as well. so we are punting a twisting something. yeah, well, but they're not, i mean, is it weighed more or less than that, but when we're doing the talent
10:49 pm
a blessing get 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. we just might be easier. we're putting them on where he 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 it's a weight of life for the, for the future. i think just wondering, as says yeah, go ahead. share your thoughts with that. so yeah, yeah, just just quickly jump in on the tree point um, uh, one of the things, the notices and cities in the global. so i'll definitely take that to use and then to is it a massive in the, in equities when it comes to shade. right, so usually below the engine. ready costs neighborhoods will be drenched and call increase and have absolutely no shade. and those are the people that need it the
10:50 pm
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, well, 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 extreme agencies pacing areas. one is one of them, how to look a m s thinking throw on bad. nobody was that a. com got a but those misery i may call me. so most of the bank of yeah, letting me i knew i knew the band they gave and as they won't, they need the money to unload the the, the me let's be paid by nancy and into the school or do we name?
10:51 pm
i'm giving a fence a good i make a man of this. the talk is a after getting me the the of the. yeah. but they can is sorry, demand muslim switch. but know where be need to see the data, the audi body output of those things easy to get data. mitchell, my name passed by that kind of went in there. but how do i be that lives in a be a delay? tell me that the modem at and i'm going to condense for the the spend to do with is a look back. yeah, i need to banding it. it'd be on google dot really good. it means that the more fundamental picture this, this movement, this trend has chief 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 product to more heat ways, but you don't have a single chief heat officer. that's the problem i take as an yeah, so it's actually great to be in this conversation and, and show
10:52 pm
a lot of what she sees officers are doing. i've heard all plans of instituting t c t positions, but it's of a new governance phenomenal. right? it's, it's only a couple of years or so, but um she usually promising it looks like because to have one. busy and manage the entire portfolio which stretches across so many different buttons on the big problems we find in most indian governments. context is it is no single entity that's responsible for sheet, like the impacts on agriculture, the impacts on what the impacts on the business environment. and all of these things made, they belong to complete a different department. so in a minute can useful to have all of this going situated 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,
10:53 pm
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 from local government, from federal government as well. otherwise, what the people do is they can't do things by themselves can by 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. or 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
10:54 pm
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, 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, corals, trees and so on. all of it requires money and we sort of looked across heat action plans across the world seat action plans in india. and one thing we sort of consistently noticed is that c 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
10:55 pm
players. and so these a 2 public communications and carpets. and so that's just one area of focus for the next 4 or 510 years, i suspect to you. 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 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 thing to notice and immediately off the back. what can we do to get his lots we see that within the country to the, the express increased frequency and intensity of sheets with these lovely affects you want to know how good culture and not try to inconsistent many communities across the country is headquartered. differentiates related to an es is such as true stress dehydration, agitation, accession,
10:56 pm
and also discomfort recorded particularly among children and do these interviews on the line health conditions, muscle, extreme, heat, sure, things for increased food in the country as close or large. so corps phone died due to high temperature eugenia go ahead, what can we do together? and so as you said, it needs to be a collective effort. we need to work together and community 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, and what can we do together to protect the environment. but also at the national level, we need to be deliberate in driving sustainable solutions across the same thing. we
10:57 pm
need to ensure that to me, uh, implementing policies in, in, in 4th and not that will ensure assistant ability and at the global level as 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 audience 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 cannot to get with spikes from the heat, water, and shade as well. thank you, christina, at the chug jania as well for coming to our show talking about the climate crisis, but also bringing slaten tea off 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
10:58 pm
