Extreme Heat Action Plan Targets Vehicle Heat

What is happening? Miami is the 1st city in the U.S. to adopt a  Extreme Heat Action Plan. This will include reducing waste heat from vehicles & utilizing concrete that offers cooling through permeability or reflectivity. Miami defines extreme heat as 2+ days over 90 degrees. 

Why is this important? It’s past time to try new ways of tackling old problems, Miami-Dade County Mayor Levine Cava, says: “Now is the time to put ambition into action.”
