Jabalpur
India
Jabalpur is projected to face several significant climate hazards, including extreme heat and dangerous heat extremes that will challenge public health and infrastructure. The city will experience heavy rainfall events and frequent heavy precipitation, leading to potential flooding and soil erosion. Additionally, prolonged drought conditions are likely, which may adversely affect agriculture and water supply. The city faces heightened risks of arbovirus transmission and increased malaria prevalence, complicating the public health landscape further. Collectively, these challenges underline the urgent climate vulnerabilities that Jabalpur must address as it faces a future marked by escalating climate risks and impacts.
