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
