Former chief city planner says cities need to be much more proactive to beat the heat
Description
August 9, 2022
Brent Toderian, a former Chief Planner for the City of Vancouver, says urban planners do far more “reacting” than “planning” when it comes to dealing with extreme heat. As the climate emergency gets worse, he says Canadian municipalities need to be much more proactive when it comes to designing cities to stay cool during extremely hot weather events.
