Apparently losses increase due to higher temperatures within cities. We could change this by adopting our working conditions by one of the following scenarios.
Air conditioning is the most obvious improvement for productivity. On the other hand it also is the strongest reason for hotter cities. It can raise temperatures inside cities by more than 1°C.
A combination of the best working hours and installing solar blinds on the outside of windows is an effective way to avert losses. Most important is not only fighting the hot temperatures but also making our cities greener by more plants, parks and water areas. This will reduce the root cause of heat and brings us to less pollution in the air.
