Denpasar

Indonesia

Denpasar is projected to face significant climate hazards, including frequent heatwaves expected to impact public health adversely. The city will also experience more heavy precipitation, risking flooding and infrastructure damage. Prolonged drought conditions threaten water availability and agricultural sustainability. Additionally, the risk of high arbovirus transmission and elevated malaria prevalence will increase, challenging public health systems. As these climate hazards and vulnerabilities intensify, they may lead to multifaceted consequences affecting both the environment and the well-being of the city's residents. Addressing these interconnected risks is crucial for the city's resilience in the face of climate change.
