Bucureștiul la 36 de grade. Ce avem bun și nu folosim suficient (II)

Bucharest has a network of climate shelters in public buildings, but they are underutilized and not well-known. The Dâmbovița River could serve as a cooling corridor, yet its potential is diminished by surrounding roads and pedestrian-unfriendly sidewalks. The city has 113 public fountains, providing limited access to water, which could help alleviate summer heat. Urban spaces could be redesigned for more shade and comfort, with some improvements possible in the next few years. Initiatives like 'Dâmbovița Apă Dulce' aim to enhance public engagement with the river, while the climate shelters, established in 2026, remain largely unrecognized despite their availability.
