Finance is key barrier to extreme heat solutions: UNEP
Original: Finance is key barrier to roll out solutions to weather extreme heat: UNEP climate head
The head of the UN Environment Programme says a lack of finance is the main obstacle to deploying solutions that help communities withstand extreme heat. The warning comes as heatwaves intensify worldwide, and it puts pressure on governments and lenders to fund adaptation measures such as cooling infrastructure and urban planning before the next severe heat season.
Why now: Extreme heat events are escalating globally, drawing attention to the funding gap for adaptation measures.
