Heat protection in the Mainz-Bingen district: 300,000 euros for fresh shadows!

In the district of Mainz-Bingen, an important funding program to improve heat protection will be implemented in the next few years. As Antenne KH , the district provides around 300,000 euros for various heat protection projects. Almost 70 projects are to be funded to protect both schools as well as daycare centers, parishes and clubs from the effects of heat waves.

The financing takes place via the KIPKI state program ("Climate -adapted infrastructure in municipalities"). Planned measures to reduce heat include the installation of outer roller blinds, the installation of sun sailing and comprehensive greening measures. Projects such as the planting of new trees are also the focus of the funding.

planned projects in detail

A remarkable example from this program is the primary school in Bingen, which will be installed in particular pop-up sails on your school yard. This measure offers effective protection in the event of strong sunlight. In Nierstein and Schwabenheim, large sun sails are planned for the play areas in the Kitas Roßberg and Lummerland.

The program "Trees and Shadows instead of concrete and heat" is also part of this initiative. According to Mainz-bingen , a total of 69 projects submitted applications for this program. The focus of the 59 proposals for structural changes is, while four applications focus on the design of green spaces and 12 applications are the goal of planting trees and shrubs.

natural funding and long -term solutions

The natural kindergarten "Wiesbach-Wichtel" in Gensingen is particularly noteworthy, which plans to redesign its outdoor areas and to increase the biodiversity through additional plantings. In Bacharach, functional external roller blinds are attached to a listed daycare building in order to maintain both the historical character and to ensure effective heat protection.

The main goal of these funding measures is to create long -term and sustainable solutions against the heat and to ensure health protection for children. Biodiversity is also encouraged and natural shading is implemented. These steps are necessary to counter the challenges of climate change that causes extreme weather events such as heat waves and heavy rain. According to the article on climate adaptation in cities, Wissen.de , the creation of more green areas is crucial for regulating the air temperature in urbanized areas.

The initiatives in the Mainz-Bingen district are in line with the global requirements for climate adaptation. The integration of innovative, natural approaches and projects not only increases the quality of life of the citizens, but also promotes a resilient infrastructure that reacts adaptable to future climatic challenges.
