| Abstract | By 2050, 70% of the global population is expected to live in urban areas, intensifying challenges such as rising temperatures, urban heat islands and degraded air quality (AQ). Although cities occupy only 3% of Earth's land, they contribute up to 80% of energy consumption and 75% of carbon emissions. Prolonged heat waves in urban settings could drastically increase mortality rates while straining energy systems and public health infrastructure. Addressing these challenges requires creating resil |
