Resilience Scanner

Jinhua is projected to face multiple climate hazards, significantly impacting its environment and residents. The city will experience increased extreme heat, with dangerous heat extremes likely to rise, causing serious public health threats and escalating energy consumption. Additionally, heavy rainfall events are expected to intensify in frequency and severity, leading to a higher risk of flooding and damage to critical infrastructure. These combined climate risks jeopardize the resilience of local ecosystems, the economy, and the safety of the community. While technology-enabled climate resilience solutions have not yet been documented for Jinhua, recognizing these hazards is essential for developing effective response strategies in the future.
