Fuyang
China
Fuyang is projected to experience significant climate hazards, primarily extreme heat characterized by dangerous heat extremes and frequent heatwaves. These conditions are likely to increase in frequency and intensity due to climate change, posing severe risks to public health, particularly among vulnerable populations like the elderly. The city could face heightened cases of heat-related illnesses, which will strain healthcare systems already tasked with other challenges. Additionally, infrastructure may struggle under the pressure of such persistent high temperatures, potentially leading to service disruptions. As of now, we have not yet identified technology-enabled climate resilience solutions for Fuyang to address these escalating risks. The combination of intense and widespread heat without sufficient adaptive measures highlights a pressing need for attention in the coming years, as the impacts of climate change become more pronounced.
