In fact, the heat wave action protocols are automatically kept at the preventive stages from 15 June to 15 September. These stages launch various preventive actions that are activated before the alert stage is reached: - Specific training for municpal primary-care social services, home-care teams and homeless people care centres - Information for the general public on how to avoid effects of heat waves) - The list of care resources and air-conditioned day centres is updated. - Vulnerable people receiving home-care services are informed of the steps they need take to protect themselves from the effects of a heat wave. - A 24-hour helpline, to provide information On the other hand, the Climate Plan includes the following actions: Short-term actions (2018-2020) - Review the Action Plan for Preventing the Effects of Heat Waves on Health, in view of the results of the future climate projections for Barcelona (activation thresholds taking minimum temperatures into account, the need to strengthen actions and services, etc.), and incorporate a territorial vision that includes vulnerability. Establish appropriate protocols for work outdoors in temperatures above 30ºC. Assess their effectiveness (2020). - Identify existing and potential climate shelter spaces: public and private facilities and public spaces (e.g. parks and gardens) which could provide conditions for thermal comfort in extreme episodes and establish the services linked to the heat wave action protocols that these spaces need to offer, aside from quantifying the extra resources required (parks open 24 hours, use of “greened” school playgrounds, block interiors, etc.). Map the degree of cover to ensure territorial fairness and take into account the areas identified as the most vulnerable to heat (2020). - Prioritise the cooling actions (more green infrastructure, converting lakes and fountains to make them accessible, etc.) tobe carried out in the territorial areas most vulnerable to heat (2020) Medium- and long-term actions (2021-2030): - Deepen our knowledge of how climate change affects the Health and mortality of people in each neighbourhood, through the European research project funded by Climate-fit.city, in which the ASPB and ISGLOBAL participate (2025). - Deepen our knowledge of the urban climate by installing a network of fixed weather stations or mobile ones (that would enable us to evaluate the effectiveness of the measures applied, such as measuring climate variables before and after pilot interventions in urban space, especially in the settings identified as the most vulnerable) (2025). - Create the “Barcelona, city of shade” programme,(increasing the green cover or installing urban furniture, preferably multifunctional (e.g. photovoltaic pergolas that generate energy), or ephemeral or seasonal textile elements. Identify and map itineraries. Foster the creation of shade in free private spaces (2025). - Create water gardens(sprinklers, accessible fountains, lakes, swimming pools, etc.), assumable as regards water consumption, combining permanent actions with ephemeral or seasonal ones.(2030). - Improve the thermal comfort of climate shelter facilities, with priority interventions in those that serve the most vulnerable population, without that meaning an increase in energy consumption wherever possible. (2030). - Create new climate shelter spaces (green spaces or facilities) to ensure territorial cover (2030). - Increase health service staff to deal with heat waves (2030). - Take action to increase the reflectance index of city pavements and terracesand help to mitigate the urban heat island effect (2030). | |||
