Risks of cities to CC by hydrometeors
(floods, landslides, droughts, heat waves)
Risks = threat x vulnerability x value
Global and local climate change the threat:
probability of occurrence of phenomenon
Uncontrolled urban growth increases
vulnerability
There is no greater value than the human
life
12
Vulnerability of human population
• Year 2000: 680 millions have not adequate water
services, and 850 millions have not toilets.
• In developing countries: 30 to 50% of urban
population in informal settlements.
• Inability of governments, financial failure and distorted
policies
• Antagonisms between government levels
• Deteriorating of governance.
13
Vulnerability of human population
• If slightly abnormal rain (or drought) causes
disasters, the city is NOT in the adaptation process
to climate change
• Concatenated disasters (flooding, pollution, disease,
economic deterioration, etc.).
• Poverty: mainly children, women and seniors.
14
Adaptation measures to climate change
• Scenarios of sea level rise and storm surge (expected
coastlines and settlements).
• Estimates of increases in heat waves, vulnerable
population (elderly) and state of health system
• Drought scenarios diagnosed with potable water system
• Increase of GHG emissions for air conditioning of
buildings (global warming and urban)
Planning and society
a) Inclusion of specific chapters in metropolitan
areas over a million in plans for adaptation to CC
b) Expert advice and support citizens to the authorities,
but with clear agendas and independ
a) ence of analysis and issue recommendations
c) Campaigns without transmission of panic among
younger generations
d) Studies of gender and vulnerable groups to detect
specific adaptation measures
e) Early warning systems with emphasis on human
settlements
Summary
Risks = threat x vurnerability x
value
• Risk levels by hydrometeors
in tropical cities (heat waves,
floods, droughts) are
increasing exponentially in the
time for urban growth (which
impacts the value and
vulnerability) and global
climate change and local
climate change
(increasing threat).
