German agency urges city heatwave actions
The German Environmental Agency called on cities to take immediate action to combat severe heatwaves, including increasing tree coverage, expanding shaded areas, and reducing asphalt and concrete surfaces. It emphasized the importance of providing drinking water and identifying cool spots, along with sustainable solutions such as planting on building rooftops and creating artificial water bodies. The agency noted that the number of days with temperatures exceeding 30°C has risen from 3 days annually in 1951 to about 11 days currently, with Germany recording its highest temperature ever at 41.3°C.
