Tashkent
Uzbekistan
Tashkent is projected to face serious climate hazards, particularly extreme heat and dangerous heat extremes. These events are expected to increase in frequency and intensity, leading to potential health risks for vulnerable populations and water scarcity challenges. Additionally, higher cooling demands could stress the city's energy resources. As extreme heat becomes more prominent, the impacts on public health and infrastructure will intensify, necessitating proactive measures to address these challenges. However, our research indicates that we have not yet identified technology-enabled climate resilience solutions specific to Tashkent. This lack of documented solutions emphasizes the importance of addressing these climate risks to ensure the city's sustainability and adaptability in the face of a changing climate.
