Puyang
China
Puyang is projected to face significant climate challenges, particularly due to extreme heat and dangerous heat extremes. The city will likely experience an increase in the frequency of heatwaves, leading to heightened public health risks and potential increases in heat-related illnesses. These extreme temperatures may disrupt agricultural productivity, creating food security concerns as crops could struggle under sustained heat. Additionally, the urban infrastructure may experience strain, as it was designed for less intense climatic conditions. Elevated energy demands for cooling may pose further challenges. Given that technology-enabled climate resilience solutions have not yet been documented for Puyang, the vulnerabilities associated with climate hazards remain a pressing issue for the community's future well-being.
