Cities and Urban Areas as drivers of global climate change

Avatar: Viktorija Mangaroska PhD Viktorija Mangaroska PhD
By 2030 nearly 60% of the global population is projected to be urban. Cities are drivers of global warming and climate change: they concentrate population, built environment, industries, economic activities, transportation, as emitters of CO2 and Greenhouse Gas emissions. Urban areas are potential hot spots of vulnerability to climate change impacts: flooding, climate and weather hazards. Recommendation on Greener Policy is Urban Planners to focus on decentralization of urban processes.
