Heat Resilience Strategy: Ensure the built environment uses thermally efficient design principles

The Physiological Society and Faculty of Public Health have launched a new report ‘Red Alert: Developing a human-centred national Heat Resilience Strategy’. The report calls for a the formation of a Heat Resilience Strategy focused on improving the understanding of how heat impacts our bodies, especially vulnerable groups. The report also details a path to an evidence-led, joined up strategy to protect the most vulnerable through a series of recommendations. This video with Professor Mike Tipton talks about the need to ensure the built environment uses thermally efficient design principles.
