Resilience Scanner

Yueqing is projected to face heavy rainfall events that will lead to flooding and disruption of daily activities and infrastructure. This increase in precipitation is likely to create favorable conditions for the proliferation of mosquitoes, significantly raising the risk of arbovirus transmission. As these climate hazards intensify, the interplay between heavy rainfall and public health will become increasingly critical. The city must prepare for the challenges posed by these environmental shifts, impacting agriculture, urban planning, and overall community well-being. In the midst of these anticipated challenges, we have not yet identified technology-enabled climate resilience solutions for Yueqing that could address these emerging risks effectively.
