Every global city must tackle the silent killer that is extreme heat, Bushra Afreen, Asia's first "chief heat officer", has warned.
Ms Afreen - appointed last year to address the heat crisis in Bangladesh's capital Dhaka - said extreme temperatures affects “every single layer” of a city from buildings to traffic to wastewater.
Speaking at the Sustainable Cities in Action Forum at Expo City Dubai on Monday, she cautioned that soaring heat is hitting the most vulnerable hardest.
“Every single thing that goes into making a city is going to be worsened by heat if you don't manage it,” Ms Afreen told The National.
“The work that we as chief heat officers do is so incredibly important because ultimately this is to benefit public health, especially the health of the most vulnerable.”
Heat is a silent killer and it will kill you first
Bushra Afreen,
chief heat officer for Dhaka North
More than 160,000 people died due to heatwaves globally from 1998 to 2017, according to the World Health Organisation.
And scientists believe it is getting worse because of climate change, with Ms Afreen's home city of Dhaka severely affected.
Last year, temperatures in Dhaka passed 40ºC leading to power cuts, hospital admissions and deaths.
Scientists said that global warming made the searing heat that spread across Asia, including Bangladesh, at least 30 times more likely.
"Nobody knew what to do," Ms Afreen said.
"People were still out in the middle of the day shopping right underneath the hot sun for hours with children on their shoulders.
"[Staying out in the sun] is something ... culturally and socially seen as making you more resilient - but it's not the case any more.
"It will kill you."
The greater Dhaka area is home to about 23 million people and rising. Many live in slums in houses built with tin that can turn into an oven during the day.
Many also cannot afford air conditioning. Ms Afreen paints a picture of a stressed city struggling to cope, with women and children disproportionately affected.
Compounding this is a lack of education and awareness about the dangers of extreme heat.
“In most traditional families, a woman will cook, clean the house ... do a lot of the manual labour and put herself in front of a heat source like a fire or a stove,” she said, referring to Bangladesh.
“If the power goes out, they will spend their entire night fanning her husband or her child and then wake up the next morning or not even sleep, and then repeat the entire day again.
"When you don't get a respite from the heat, when you're not able to cool down and rest, you're making yourself weaker and weaker. So that's why we say that heat affects women the most."
Ms Afreen, in her 30s, was appointed last year as officer for Dhaka North, where her father is mayor, as part of an initiative organised by the Adrienne Arsht-Rockefeller Foundation Resilience Centre.
It assists communities that are dealing with climate extremes, through a network of finance, health and climate experts.
She joins an all-female network of heat officers in cities around the world, including Miami, Chile's capital Santiago, and Freetown in Sierra Leone. But cities outside this initiative are also appointing heat officers.
Ms Afreen – who previously worked to reduce heat for workers on the production floors of her family's garment business and co-produced a film that indirectly reflected on climate change – is trying to reduce the impact of heat for its residents.
But it is a tough task amid the surging population, density of buildings that worsen the heat-island effect – when a city experiences much warmer temperatures than nearby rural areas – and lack of green spaces.
Among the projects in which Ms Afreen has been involved is helping to increase the amount of greenery, particularly in what are known as "informal settlements" or slums.
Battling red tape and delays, the project led to more than 5,000 trees being planted in these areas using local knowledge to determine where they should be planted and who takes care of them.
Other initiatives include: creating urban forests; integrating heat factors into the city's smartphone app, such as showing people where water sources are; and building "cooling zones" around the city on street corners or empty spaces.
“We're working on transforming those spaces into women and child-friendly, safe, green, healthy spaces with water access and heat messaging. And we will put them on a map," she said.
Ms Afreen is also keen to develop an early heatwave warning system in collaboration with the Bangladeshi weather bureau, Department of Disaster Management and the Health Ministry.
She said cities need more heat officers and more people working on the effect heatwaves have on human health.
“[Many people] live in metal housing … and that really makes their houses behave like furnaces," said Ms Afreen.
She said a solution such as covering the tops in reflective paint has consequences.
“These are unregulated houses,” she said, “So the landlords, the second you do that, they're just going to hike up the price. So it is very challenging.”
Regionally, she pointed to Palestine, stating on top of the current situation, when it gets warmer “so many people [will be vulnerable]” and said more people in the field were needed across the Middle East.
“We need to make sure that we address heat as the top challenge to deal with. Heat is a silent killer and it will kill you first," Ms Afreen said.
She said reaction to her role – she is still Asia's only heat officer – was sceptical at the start and while things were changing, a lot more needed to be done.
"We have only scratched the surface," she said. "We need to go back to our cities and our communities and work from the ground up.”
The Sustainable Cities in Action Forum runs until March 6 and aims to share innovations and solutions on urban development across the Middle East, Africa and South Asia

Kat Wightman's tips on how to create zones in large spaces
- Area carpets or rugs are the easiest way to segregate spaces while also unifying them.
- Lighting can help define areas. Try pendant lighting over dining tables, and side and floor lamps in living areas.
- Keep the colour palette the same in a room, but combine different tones and textures in different zone. A common accent colour dotted throughout the space brings it together.
- Don’t be afraid to use furniture to break up the space. For example, if you have a sofa placed in the middle of the room, a console unit behind it will give good punctuation.
- Use a considered collection of prints and artworks that work together to form a cohesive journey.

Tightening the screw on rogue recruiters
The UAE overhauled the procedure to recruit housemaids and domestic workers with a law in 2017 to protect low-income labour from being exploited.
Only recruitment companies authorised by the government are permitted as part of Tadbeer, a network of labour ministry-regulated centres.
A contract must be drawn up for domestic workers, the wages and job offer clearly stating the nature of work.
The contract stating the wages, work entailed and accommodation must be sent to the employee in their home country before they depart for the UAE.
The contract will be signed by the employer and employee when the domestic worker arrives in the UAE.
Only recruitment agencies registered with the ministry can undertake recruitment and employment applications for domestic workers.
Penalties for illegal recruitment in the UAE include fines of up to Dh100,000 and imprisonment
But agents not authorised by the government sidestep the law by illegally getting women into the country on visit visas.
The burning issue
The internal combustion engine is facing a watershed moment – major manufacturer Volvo is to stop producing petroleum-powered vehicles by 2021 and countries in Europe, including the UK, have vowed to ban their sale before 2040. The National takes a look at the story of one of the most successful technologies of the last 100 years and how it has impacted life in the UAE.

Pharaoh's curse
British aristocrat Lord Carnarvon, who funded the expedition to find the Tutankhamun tomb, died in a Cairo hotel four months after the crypt was opened.
He had been in poor health for many years after a car crash, and a mosquito bite made worse by a shaving cut led to blood poisoning and pneumonia.
Reports at the time said Lord Carnarvon suffered from “pain as the inflammation affected the nasal passages and eyes”.
Decades later, scientists contended he had died of aspergillosis after inhaling spores of the fungus aspergillus in the tomb, which can lie dormant for months. The fact several others who entered were also found dead withiin a short time led to the myth of the curse.

How it works
1) The liquid nanoclay is a mixture of water and clay that aims to convert desert land to fertile ground
2) Instead of water draining straight through the sand, it apparently helps the soil retain water
3) One application is said to last five years
4) The cost of treatment per hectare (2.4 acres) of desert varies from $7,000 to $10,000 per hectare

It's up to you to go green
Nils El Accad, chief executive and owner of Organic Foods and Café, says going green is about “lifestyle and attitude” rather than a “money change”; people need to plan ahead to fill water bottles in advance and take their own bags to the supermarket, he says.
“People always want someone else to do the work; it doesn’t work like that,” he adds. “The first step: you have to consciously make that decision and change.”
When he gets a takeaway, says Mr El Accad, he takes his own glass jars instead of accepting disposable aluminium containers, paper napkins and plastic tubs, cutlery and bags from restaurants.
He also plants his own crops and herbs at home and at the Sheikh Zayed store, from basil and rosemary to beans, squashes and papayas. “If you’re going to water anything, better it be tomatoes and cucumbers, something edible, than grass,” he says.
“All this throwaway plastic - cups, bottles, forks - has to go first,” says Mr El Accad, who has banned all disposable straws, whether plastic or even paper, from the café chain.
One of the latest changes he has implemented at his stores is to offer refills of liquid laundry detergent, to save plastic. The two brands Organic Foods stocks, Organic Larder and Sonnett, are both “triple-certified - you could eat the product”.
The Organic Larder detergent will soon be delivered in 200-litre metal oil drums before being decanted into 20-litre containers in-store.
Customers can refill their bottles at least 30 times before they start to degrade, he says. Organic Larder costs Dh35.75 for one litre and Dh62 for 2.75 litres and refills will cost 15 to 20 per cent less, Mr El Accad says.
But while there are savings to be had, going green tends to come with upfront costs and extra work and planning. Are we ready to refill bottles rather than throw them away? “You have to change,” says Mr El Accad. “I can only make it available.”
