How to combat extreme heat in urban areas | Future Earth | BBC News 

Why don't you use Celcius for measuring the temperature

excellent and motivating first show! cheers from Havana Cuba

Wonderful documentary. We need clever solutions and going on investigaring new ways of cooling our cities and public spaces.

Using Fahrenheit sigh, is it really that hard to add Celsius in brackets or the closed captions?

The best solution is not letting it get to that point. That being said: Trees, trees everywhere, walkable cities.

Would it be possible to provide transcripts of these kinds of independent study?

Literally trees. I live in the mountains and there’s a patch of trees growing over a large section of my road. When I pass that spot on my side by side it could be 100f out and 30° cooler under that canopy. You almost get the chills. Now I’ve planted 58 trees on my property. I’ll get lower temps and some nuts and fruits. My progeny will too.

amazing documentary. lots of information , simple and effective solutions.

We can't stand this heat here in Sao Paulo Brazil 😢

thank you for information

It's becoming to hot day by day 🔥

very informative! thank you so much.

Thanks

❤ thank you for information

It’s very great news.I think that it’s a good documentary and a lot of pepole helpfully in neture

Useful content in youtube as always❤

It's really motivatng, and we need to keep finding better way to cool our cities.

Great documentary

Thanks Channel

Thanks information

Great!

There were many protests in Poland against removing trees and paving public spaces in cities. Trees are a part of the solution, but also using too much hard surfaces like concrete will increase the temperature and decrease water retention, which is bad if you have flash floods on the rise. There should be both trees and unpaved green areas wherever it's possible.

I'm working towards to mitigate this heatwave issues. ❤😊

Stop building them? Or we acting like the concrete etc isn't raising the temps in city's? When it's been proven many of times.

How about building cooling towers in community buildings aka wind catchers, like the one's in other countries. Reduce your electricity consumption for a/c. Put them in schools or other community buildings for people to cool off if the grid goes down. Look into ancient windcatcher cooling technology. Also, there is the Persian ice house, or how to make ice in the desert

Uzbekistan is very good location 👌🏼

Ac and heaters are a huge problem. Also factory smoke and carbon emissions.

I think there are more actions we should start doing to cool our cities and planet, not just about planting trees, but also stop being compulsive consumers, save energy in all the possible ways

เรามาร่วมกันสร้างเครือข่ายช่วยกันปลูกป่าสร้างป่าในบ้านเมืองไทยเรากัน เช่นกลุ่มสายเขียว

In Indonesia different with US, Canada , Europe, or Japan, in Indonesia they cut the tree

City garden is a solution to fight heating temperature.

how to get script from the video, Im an English learner and i wanna know new vocab that i cant listen?

There was a line in the movie Starman about humans "You are at your best when things are at their worst." Let's hope.

Chief heat officer 😂😂😂

Veuillez parler des manifestations des enseignants au Maroc. C'est souhaitable.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Yeah trees are the best solution to keep temperature down. And I take apart in geography classes

Props for using the term "global warming" 👍

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK ❤ MA SHAA ALLAH

❤

how? not bbc for all that action news

its the BBC. Use celcius goddamit.

We are very clever documentary for world wide

This vídeo was really interesting. We should change our mind to the best future and respecting the nature. The climate change is a consequence of our mistakes. It's time to change now.

💕

BBC Music❤

Comprehensive documentary and it gets aware regarding heating worldwide reality. Cop keeps at bay through actions such as controlling temperature but there has not been results.

We do not need to combat extreme heat in urban areas, we need to combat extreme heat on the world.

How about designing smarter cities, by planning not to have skyscrapers too close together duh?

Love You All Sir Ji and All Mam❤️❤️❤️

Im sweating everyday.😅

พืชที่มีน้ำ จะทำให้โลกร้อนนะค่ะหรือเป็นพืชทนอากาศหนักเช่นสนเมืองร้อน ยูคาลิปตัสสนพืชพวกนี้มีน้ำมันทำให้โลกร้อนค่ะ เชื่อไหมเราได้ประโยชน์จากพืชเศรษฐกิจแต่มันก็ทำให้อากาศไท่ถ่ายเทเพราะมันมีน้ำมันไงแถมเป็นพืชใจดำพืชชนิดอื่นขึ้นไม่ได้ถ้ามีพืชที่มีน้ำมันในเนื้อไม้😮

BBC is the best channel for me it's give me all world knowledge. I'm found of to visit U.k owing to BBC news . I'm form Pakistan.

20%move away from city go nearer forest area and live there built own water in electricity supply. City cooler

But! If we paint all the roofs in the qorld bright white . All of the amazing Astronauts could go blind.

The summary of climate change is easy. It is the change of humidity in atmosphere, which produce between the (land)and the(seas & oceans) on the other hand... Occurring of rains, snow, storms, and floods at time and in unexpected places, confirm my theory(the change in the directions of winds)which must be balanced... How to reduce the heat of the earth and atmosphere? We must supply the earth with a natural cooling places... Results: ---------- 1- To balance the water vapor which produces between the( ground)and the(seas and oceans )... 2- To balance the pressures of the air in the atmosphere... 3- To balance the directions of winds which caused the climate change... 4- To control upon the storms and harricans... 5- To revive the the first theory of climate change (dynamic horizontal movement). 6- To balance the percentage of gases forming the atmosphere. NOTE :The lack of water vapor is of land not of seas and oceans... These studies had completed and sent on July 26th 2000... Yousif A Tobiya

We have to plant more & more trees & People should use diesel vehicles as less as possible & go for EVs instead heat engines

Urban heat

White paint can't solve problem of overall temperature because reflected heatcan again be absorbed in the carbon. So only sustainable solutions is we improve our environment with more trees.

"you probably noticed 2023 was hot" you clearly haven't been to berlin my friend

To control first construction building should be decrease and planting tree in world

Maybe people don’t need to live all together

🌱🌱🌱🌱

Stop tearing down nature for buildings

How about we just spread out a little bit?

Paint the roofs white.

More trees on the streets

Keep all the middle class in sauna heated homes until they all stop having weekend breaks on another continent.

Land is already the property of 1.4 billion people! However, the Chinese government is taking the property of the people and reselling it to them at extremely high housing prices! Landlords and tycoons are not as cunning as you, are they!

👨‍💻 Good

Trees, and more trees.

The occurrence of stoms,rains,ice, and floods at times and in unexpected places,confirms my theory the end of the (dynamic horizontal movement )which needs to balance and it sill under control to balance... But about earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, sinkholes, tsunami, dry lakes and rivers, flow of water from the mountains and hills,explodeand of eyes water from the ground, formation of new mountains or islands, collaps of mountains ,and cracks on ground,& ,& ,&,they are out of control or balance... Note :The earth will become like Venus... Yousif A Tobiya

thank you sir ye Mulan mera apna hi or is ki har mashkil or psreshani hum mehubul Watan hai.or sir ghr me lakh mushkil or pReshani hontou kiya ghr ko chorna achi bat nhi or me or family kuch time k Liya aa ja sakte hain but abhi kuch kehna k me kisi or counties me he still ho Jason Asa nhi chati sir hum reh sakte hi but Pakistan ko chor nhi sakti wo is liye mere Walden Pakistan ki mati me madfan hin or hum unto tanhan chor k nhi jab sakti plz

Lost of (????)L daily as a form of vapor of water from the ground,has a big effect to rise or reduce of temperature by veiling the rays of the sun,and decreasing the earth's radiation... Vapor condensation creates clouds that veil the sun totally,earth and atmosphere ... This a mount of water vapor became produced from(seas and oceans)... This means,the percentage of water vapor which produced from the ground and the (seas&oceans )is difficult... This means the pressures of the air in the atmosphere are different too... This case means the change in the directions of winds,which some called climate change and some called global warming, and then NINO and then LANINA, and this year they called global cooling... Results : These directions of winds, must be balanced... These studies had completed and sent on July 26th 2000... Yousif A Tobiya

sir muje apne he city sab se cool lagt hai plz muje sab se Peale apna apne city me karna us k bad or kuch qk mere ghr ki halal bhotnzada khasta or bosida hi ager barsath 😗zada ho jYe tou phir hum kuf ki wajha se fear ya relative k ghr Jana mujbori or shamindigi hi but rab Tala khukam jab mile GA me Karachi me apne family k liye ghr ki pehli chaht or pehli zarirat b hi thnk you

Your cities not mine..

Easy. Just turn on aircon. Outside is hot. Who cares. By the way. If all aircon around the world facing outside instead of indoor. Will the planet be cooler?

GREEN ENERGY vs AIR CONDITIONER 🚼🪃🌊 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌍🌎🌏🌞 .

Nuclear power is very helpful for releasing the burden of the emissions, which can also cool down the temperature too, if you are wise enough, you should embrace it

thank you fo diz, bbc news. there are solutions. there is hope. 💎🌟🤩 anyhoo: hawt planet. hawt cities. hawt jellybean. 💜😂😋😘🍀🚿💛

It's time. Politics has nothing to do with climate change. Trust your politicians to vote. It's what they do. What can you do? Stop voting for a system you never agreed with. For starters. Then you can get a fraction of your mind back to you and in working order.

Modern Man. Fossil Fuels. Two sentences yet equally opposed. I only wish we had more time to Talk About Climate Stuff. But; we are already busy, and I know you're busy too. So , that's enough climate talk for Now. We can start where we left off; maybe tomorrow, after dinner. Gender equality is good to talk about. Because men and women are much different. Therefore different equalities. Not the same.

The law and climate change. Here, for instance. You own a car. You use drugs. Your innovative automobile has a sensor, a platelet sensor built into the weave of the twine which stitches your steering wheel together. If you do drugs your automobile will record your platelets levels. If you ever try to sell your car, the market value will drop because of the drug use. This is an example of how stupid the drug war is. You know, drug war; the Law.

Reduce carbon dioxide emissions - no. purple paint, wearing light clothes and staying at home - yes. 😂

11% of 0.04%. This is a scam.

How about appointing god?

turn on air conditioner

60% of the(land)breeze and the(sea)changed in Iraq and this difference arrived at other countries of the world... This difference caused the change of the directions of winds,which needs to balance... You spend more than 100 years to study the age and the thickness of the ice at the poles(north and south ),but you didn't spend one day to return ice to his place... The people plan their future , but you do not plan the future of the earth... The world made sins, when he didn't study and read the studies and the advices of the others... I think that science is for the Americans and the Europeans !!! ??? ... Yousif A Tobiya
