Why cities around the world are uniting to keep cool

A new global initiative is helping cities from #PhoenixAZ to #QuezonCity address #ExtremeHeat with #SharedSolutions and #LocalAction.

From the #C40 website: "Cities are focusing on increasing green cover, cool roofs, and shaded public areas in places that experience the most heat and the least access to adequate cooling."

Nov 05, 2025

"The following is a sponsored op-ed written by Kate Gallego, Mayor of Phoenix, Arizona and Joy Belmonte, Mayor of Quezon City, the #Philippines and sponsored by C40 Cities.

This summer, cities around the world broke temperature records once again. The results were devastating: Extreme heat now kills nearly half a million people each year, and the danger keeps rising. By 2050, the number of people in cities exposed to life-threatening heat is expected to increase fivefold.

From the desert of Phoenix in the United States to the humid streets of Quezon City in the Philippines, mayors are facing the same new reality: Heat is here to stay, and it is impacting every element of city life. That’s why we — along with more than 30 other mayors from C40 Cities, a global network of nearly 100 of the world’s biggest cities tackling the #ClimateEmergency — are joining forces to protect our people today and prepare our communities for a hotter tomorrow. Through the new C40 #CoolCities Accelerator, we’ll work together to speed up bold and inclusive #ClimateAction that meets the urgency of this growing threat.

In some ways, our cities couldn’t be more different. Phoenix, America’s fifth largest city, sits in Arizona’s Sonoran Desert, and sees more than 300 days of sunshine a year. Quezon City, the most populous city in the Philippines, faces sweltering humidity and the annual risk of typhoons. Yet both cities are on the front lines of rising temperatures that threaten health, strain our power grids, and deepen inequality.

Extreme heat is the deadliest climate hazard, but it’s also the quietest. It kills through heatstroke and dehydration, and by worsening heart and respiratory conditions. It’s often felt most by the people with the fewest resources to cope: older adults, children, outdoor workers, and low-income communities. In Phoenix, residents in low-income neighbourhoods can experience temperatures several degrees higher than in wealthier parts of the city. In Quezon City, densely populated neighborhoods can become dangerous heat traps.

We refuse to accept a future in which a heatwave becomes a death sentence for those with the least, and whose responsibility for the climate crisis is disproportionately small. The Cool Cities Accelerator is our shared plan to prevent that. In line with COP30’s call for a ‘decade of delivery,’ this provides a practical framework for mayors to act boldly and share what works.

First, we’re protecting lives right now. Participating cities are appointing heat leaders, improving early-warning systems, and coordinating emergency responses across agencies. Phoenix, for example, created the US’s first publicly-funded Office of Heat Response and Mitigation, expanded access to chilled water stations, and opened cooling and hydration stations, including overnight cooling center options to bring relief where it’s needed most. Meanwhile, Quezon City is currently mapping heat-vulnerable communities and developing a citywide heat-health action plan. It has already adjusted work hours for outdoor workers, and introduced heat-tolerant crops across more than 1,400 urban farms.

The goal is to build long-term resilience. Within five years, cities in the Accelerator will integrate cooling into building codes, redesign streets for shade and airflow, and expand tree canopies and green corridors. Phoenix is piloting reflective ‘cool pavements’, planting thousands of trees, and building artistic shade structures and setting regional standards for heat-ready infrastructure. Quezon City is restoring parks and greening schools and public spaces. As part of these efforts, the city has supported local groups turning vacant lots into small forests and gardens, while encouraging private development to adopt greener designs under its Green Building Ordinance. These efforts save lives, and cut energy bills while improving neighbourhoods.

But urban heat doesn’t stop at city limits, and neither should our solutions. That’s why collaboration is at the heart of the Cool Cities Accelerator. Thirty-two cities — from Austin to Athens and Singapore to Santiago — are now exchanging data and design ideas. The details on the ground obviously differ, but the solutions we craft together are remarkably similar, creating more shade, better design, and better care for the most vulnerable. When our teams share lessons on early-warning systems, or how to engage with our communities, we all move faster and more effectively.

For too long, extreme heat has been under-measured and under-estimated. We can build cities that are not only cooler, but more fair. But to do so, we must act together, and we must act now. We need to deliver solutions that both keep people alive today, and allow future generations to thrive."

Impulsan transporte de carga cero emisiones en la capital

Cdmx impulsa transporte de carga limpio y financiamiento verde.


Por Gabriela Díaz | Reportera                                                       

El evento convocado por C40 “Impulsando la descarbonización del transporte de carga en la Cdmx” se realizó en colaboración con SEDEMA y Nafin. La actividad subrayó la importancia de alianzas entre gobierno, banca de desarrollo y sector privado. Se reforzó la coordinación para acelerar la transición hacia transporte de carga cero emisiones en la capital mexicana.

Durante el evento participaron funcionarios del gobierno capitalino, entre ellos la Secretaría de Medio Ambiente (SEDEMA) y la Secretaría de Desarrollo Económico (SEDECO). Representantes del gobierno federal asistieron, destacando la participación de Nacional Financiera (NAFIN), además de C40 y The Climate Pledge, quienes confirmaron su colaboración para impulsar la movilidad sostenible.

La Iniciativa Laneshift, alianza entre C40 Cities y The Climate Pledge, inició en 2023 para transformar el transporte de carga urbana en México, Brasil e India. La Cdmx forma parte de esta iniciativa internacional que busca cerrar brechas en infraestructura, financiamiento y políticas públicas para acelerar la electrificación del transporte urbano.

Laneshift y electromovilidad

“La Cdmx enfrenta retos en calidad del aire y reducción de emisiones. Formar parte de Laneshift fue una estrategia clave para acelerar la transición hacia la electromovilidad y fomentar un transporte de carga limpio. Las acciones fortalecieron políticas de movilidad y planificación urbana”, afirmó Julia Álvarez Icaza, secretaria de Medio Ambiente de la Ciudad de México.

La secretaria enfatizó que estas medidas no solo redujeron emisiones, sino que mejoraron la calidad del aire y promovieron la salud de las comunidades. Las políticas implementadas incluyeron incentivos para empresas, despliegue de infraestructura de recarga eléctrica y esquemas de financiamiento verde. La participación de organismos internacionales reforzó el alcance global de la estrategia.

Los compromisos adquiridos incluyeron la instalación de estaciones de carga eléctrica y la renovación progresiva de flotas de transporte de carga. La iniciativa busca que empresas y gobiernos municipales adopten tecnologías limpias y reduzcan la huella de carbono del transporte urbano. Esta acción posicionó a la Cdmx como referente en movilidad sustentable en América Latina.

Financiamiento y cooperación internacional

Ismael Villanueva, titular de la Unidad de Emisiones y Relaciones Internacionales de Nafin y Bancomext, subrayó que “el Plan México definió el rumbo hacia un desarrollo económico sostenible e inclusivo. La banca de desarrollo abrió acceso a financiamiento y cooperación internacional, acompañando a empresas y gobiernos en su transición hacia modelos más verdes”.

El papel de Nafin incluyó estructurar esquemas de crédito verde para empresas de transporte y proyectos de infraestructura eléctrica. También se promovió la colaboración con organismos multilaterales para asegurar recursos que respaldaran la electrificación de flotas y la instalación de estaciones de recarga.

Estas acciones se complementaron con talleres y mesas de trabajo entre empresas, gobierno y asociaciones internacionales. Se generaron protocolos para monitorear avances en emisiones y eficiencia energética, así como indicadores de impacto ambiental y económico. La participación activa de actores clave aseguró la viabilidad de los compromisos adquiridos.

Impacto en la movilidad urbana

El despliegue de infraestructura de recarga eléctrica permitió iniciar la transición de flotas de carga hacia vehículos eléctricos. Esto generó reducción de emisiones de CO2, menor contaminación y eficiencia operativa para las empresas participantes. Las ciudades involucradas adoptaron estrategias de gestión de transporte y logística limpia.

La iniciativa Laneshift facilitó la creación de incentivos fiscales para empresas que renovaron flotas o invirtieron en infraestructura eléctrica. También se promovieron alianzas público-privadas para expandir la red de carga y optimizar rutas de transporte. Los resultados preliminares indicaron ahorros significativos en consumo de combustibles fósiles y emisiones contaminantes.

El impacto social incluyó mayor conciencia ambiental entre operadores y ciudadanía. La implementación de transporte cero emisiones contribuyó a mejorar la salud pública y redujo la exposición a contaminantes. Además, fortaleció la imagen de la Cdmx como ciudad innovadora y comprometida con la sostenibilidad global. –sn–

@Boehler
Ich nerde mich seit kurzem auch vermehrt in das Thema rein.

Mindestens genauso wichtig wie die Zubereitungsart ist die Herkunft und Röstung des Kaffees.

Ich wollte keinen weiteren #Elektroschrott in meinem Haushalt haben und habe mich deshalb bewusst für die überwiegend manuelle Zubereitung entschieden (bis auf die Erhitzung natürlich).

Zentraler Bestandteil ist dabei die manuelle #Kaffeemühle #Comandante #c40 Mk. 4. Die bereitet sowas von Vergnügen :ablobcatbongo: .
