Germany urges stronger heatwave measures
The German Environmental Agency confirmed that cities across the country are taking measures to combat the increasing heatwaves, urging the adoption of sustainable strategies to protect residents, especially the most vulnerable groups. It emphasized the need to expand green spaces, increase the number of trees, provide shade, and remove asphalt and concrete surfaces to reduce the "urban heat island" effect. The agency also highlighted the importance of ensuring water availability, designating cool areas as refuges, and enhancing rainwater management and storage gradually using modern techniques. Temperatures in Germany have reached unprecedented levels, with some regions recording a record high of 41.3°C, amid a persistent rise in heatwaves across Europe in recent years.
