Over the past week, Europe has experienced record-breaking heat.
France recorded its hottest day since national records began.
Spain recorded its highest average June temperature since 1950.
The all-time German record was even broken on the 28th with a preliminary measurement of 41.7 °C in Neißemünde-Coschen (Brandenburg).
The Netherlands issued red heat alerts as temperatures approached 40°C.
Rail tracks in Sweden warped, contributing to a cargo train derailment.
The UK experienced its hottest June day on record.
As temperatures continue to rise, designing cooler, more comfortable outdoor spaces is becoming an urgent priority.
Urban Heat Island mitigation requires action at multiple scales, from city-wide planning strategies to localized interventions in schools, public spaces, and dense urban environments.
Join AIA Environnement to discover how ENVI-met simulations support climate-resilient urban and landscape design. Through two real-world case studies, you’ll learn how simulation-driven decisions on urban form, vegetation, materials, irrigation, and pedestrian comfort can improve outdoor thermal comfort in both neighborhood-scale developments and constrained urban settings.
