Ahmadnagar

India

Ahmadnagar is projected to face significant climate hazards, including extreme heat and dangerous heat extremes, which threaten public health due to increased heat-related illnesses. The city is likely to experience prolonged drought conditions, impacting water availability and agricultural output. Furthermore, the elevated risk of arboviral transmission, particularly malaria, poses considerable public health challenges as warmer conditions may facilitate greater vector proliferation. Collectively, these hazards highlight a future where Ahmadnagar's resilience is tested by climatic stressors, necessitating urgent assessments and actions to address the risks associated with these climate changes.
