🌡️India Faces the Highest Global Population Risk from Extreme Heat due to Inadequate Cooling Access With the Government of India, we are establishing a District Cooling Hub❄️ Join us at our stakeholder consultation: 9 July, 2:45-5:15 PM IST at UN House, Lodhi Estate in New Delhi

🇬🇭 COMING SOON: #EnergyTalks, a podcast by Sustainable Energy for All | #SDG7BeBold , will raise awareness about energy efficiency and cooling solutions, with a special focus on #Ghana. 🎙 Streaming everywhere from 16 July 2024. #EnergyTalks #EnergyEfficientLife #GhanaETIP

❄️Vietnam approved its National Plan on ODS & GHG Management! On June 11, Vietnam's PM approved an updated plan for cooling aligning w/#GlobalCoolingPledge #COP28. “The plan tackles urban heat with passive cooling, energy efficiency & HFC phase-down.” 👉bit.ly/3XQ1Eca

Researchers in #London have found that #CoolRoofs can cut temperatures by 1.2° C (2.2° F) on average, making them a more impactful #PassiveCooling solution than #GreenRoofs. Learn more ⬇️ #SustainableCooling #CoolingForAll #ExtremeHeat #ClimateResilience bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

📢Today United Nations SG António Guterres issued an Urgent Call to Action on Extreme Heat🔥in line w/the #GlobalCoolingPledge. We must invest in the "triple strategy: passive cooling, #EnergyEfficiency & phase-out climate-warming gases used in cooling equipment." 📄bit.ly/4d7K0oG

Extreme heat is having an extreme impact on people and planet. Today I launched a global call to #ClimateAction focused on: 🔸 Caring for the most vulnerable 🔸 Stepping up protections for workers 🔸 Boosting resilience 🔸 Limiting temperature rise and phasing out fossil fuels

Regulations promoting low to zero global-warming potential alternatives in air conditioning & refrigeration is critical. Equally urgent is preventing the dumping of inefficient cooling appliances with outdated refrigerants in developing countries. un.org/sites/un2.un.o…

📅Join us on 13 August for the webinar "Extreme Urban Heat:Opportunities to Mitigate Risks in Cities," co-organized by UN Environment Programme's #UrbanShift & WRI Climate Urban Development team. 🌳Green Infrastructure 🏢Efficient Building Design 🏘️Community Interventions 👉bit.ly/3Steyt8

According to United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, we must respond to the threat of #ExtremeHeat by "massively increasing access to low-carbon #cooling, expanding #PassiveCooling & cleaning up cooling technologies while boosting their efficiency." Read more ⬇️ #CleanCooling

Urban heat is intensifying, and vulnerable communities are suffering disproportionately. Join UrbanShift @worldresources UN Environment Programme Cool Coalition to learn how geospatial data analysis can help direct resources and solutions to where they’re needed most. bit.ly/3Swtc2O
