Screening Asian Megacities to Estimate Relative Exposure to Climate Change

SHARE THIS PAGE:

The Rockefeller Foundation is considering working with an Asian megacity  to assess needs for and to possibly implement adaptations to climate change. This study uses simple indicators of exposure to climate change to develop a preliminary ranking of relative risks across 50 Asian megacities to eight potential climate change impacts in 2030 and 2080. The results should not be interpreted as exact predictions of climate change risk or vulnerability.
