Turin

Italy

Turin faces a future characterized by moderate climate risks that threaten its environment and urban infrastructure. It is projected to experience rising temperatures, leading to increased heatwaves and shifts in precipitation patterns, potentially resulting in increased water scarcity. Consequently, agricultural sectors may encounter challenges from altered growing seasons and crop yields. Furthermore, urban infrastructure could be strained due to extreme weather events, exacerbating vulnerability among communities. Health risks, particularly for vulnerable populations, could increase due to heat exposure and poor air quality. As these climate hazards unfold, proactive approaches will be essential to address the ramifications of a changing climate, particularly considering that technology-enabled resilience solutions have not yet been documented for this city. Overall, the convergence of these climate hazards underscores the urgency of understanding and addressing the long-term impacts on urban resilience.
