New Waverley Council climate report shows how to keep our dwellings cool

Waverley Council Mayor of Waverley, Paula Masselos, is calling on the state and federal governments to act on the results of new award-winning research, which demonstrates simple ways residential developments in Sydney’s east can cope with increasing local temperatures caused by climate change. Adaptations to Residential Building Design, the second report from Waverley Council’s Future Proofing Residential Development to Climate Change Project, found heating and cooling of buildings can be improved for Waverley residents through existing methods such as building materials, window glazing and improved shading. The report responds to the alarming findings from Council’s initial project report which showed that as the number of warm days increase, cooling needs for houses and apartments may surge by over 300% by 2070.
