This talk is presented by Scientia Professor Mattheos Santamouris, Chair of the Anita B. Lawrence Center for High Performance Architecture at UNSW.

In it, Mat discusses the magnitude of Urban Climate Change, where due to development of the built environment, these areas are having an increasing impact on Energy, Health, Productivity, The Economy and of course Vulnerable Populations.

He provide examples of this impact from the most recent research in these area, and looks at Heat Mitigation and Adaption potential and proposals to counterbalance urban heat. These include the development of Advanced Heat Mitigation Technologies.

It’s will provide you with a clear understanding as to the urgency required to change the built environment, to ensure these issues are at least mitigated, or rather reversed for the sake of humanity.
