Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Focused adaptation : a strategic approach to climate adaptation in cities (july 2021)

Publication: New York : McKinsey & Company, 2021Physical description: 49 p.Series: (McKinsey Sustainability)Notes: Sumario: Cities are on the front lines of the growing physical risks associated with climate change. Urban areas are home to dense concentrations of people and are often located in places of particular climate risk, such as on coastlines, floodplains, and islands. Moreover, the built environment associated with cities can exacerbate climate impact. Given existing emissions, some climate change is already locked in, making these risks unavoidable. To protect the lives and livelihoods of urban residents, cities must improve their resilience.Materia / lugar / evento: Cambio climático Sostenibilidad Ciudades sostenibles Mercado de seguros Resiliencia Reducción de riesgos Catástrofes naturales Riesgos meteorológicos Otros autores: Boland, Brodie
