Abstract
Abstract: This paper aims to analyse how rapid urbanization helps in increasing urban temperature and how urban population suffering due to rise in temperature. Heat stress happens when the body's capability of controlling its inner temperature begins to fail. Temperature rise is of the main reason led to warmness stress. This heat stress related issues are mostly being seen among urban workers and urban poor. Usually, urban areas experience higher temperature than its peri urban & rural areas. These higher temperatures have negative human health impact like respiratory disorder, cardiovascular and heat stroke as well. Therefore, it is important to lower heat risk from urban environment. Deaths & Health hazards due to heat stress can be avoid easily. We just need to identify the high heat risk areas and with the help of proper planning and prevention we can prevent health related issues. Rapid Urbanization & increase of built-up surface is one of the major causes increasing urban heat.
