Description:
|
Climate change, particularly heat in urban areas, endangers the natural environment, biodiversity, health, and economy of this human habitat. Extreme heat and heat stress are significant climate risks for urban residents. In acknowledgement of the excessive heat and its effects on urban people, a comparative remote qualitative project has been designed to enhance knowledge of this population’s daily experiences and heat mitigation strategies |
