The squares of Rome 'heat islands', the video on CNN

A CNN report highlighted issues with Rome's heat island problem, focusing on Piazza Risorgimento near the Vatican. The report described how millions were spent on cooling measures such as shade trees, water misting stations, and fountains, but many of these features failed within a year. The report sparked political controversy, with the center-right parties criticizing Mayor Roberto Gualtieri's administration for mismanaging the project and wasting public funds. They accused him of inadequately governing Rome and damaging its international image. Critics pointed out that some areas now exceed 50 degrees Celsius during summer due to concrete surfaces replacing greenery.
