Ajmer

India

Ajmer is projected to face increased climate risks, including extreme heat and dangerous heat extremes that will elevate health risks for its inhabitants. Frequent heavy precipitation events are expected to overwhelm existing infrastructure, leading to potential flooding. The city will also experience prolonged drought conditions, raising concerns over water scarcity and agricultural yields. Furthermore, the high risk of arbovirus transmission due to climatic changes poses additional public health threats. These interconnected climate hazards highlight Ajmer's significant vulnerabilities and emphasize the need for comprehensive strategies to address the far-reaching impacts of climate change in the region.
