At least once a year, the city experiences floods, with requirements for mass evacuations and/or disaster relief. Flooding in Cape Town is generally driven by high levels of vulnerability rather than high severity of rain events. The Programme encompasses a broad range of resilience measures including infrastructural preparation (such as gutter-clearing to reduce the impact felt by flooding). Another aspect of the Programme center more on social services to vulnerable communities and residents. The costs below therefore reflect just one example of the plan: the temporary mattress space, groceries, toiletries, and cooking and cleaning assistance (through the Expanded Public Works Programme), rolled out by the Social Development and Early Childhood Development department. This aid was provided to 16 shelter organisations. Please note that the City is developing its Climate Change Hazard, Risk and Vulnerability Assessment, the findings of which will inform its new adaptation action plan. This action plan is predicted to be developed by 2020, and will provide comprehensive and updated details on the actions listed here. Because they are often influenced by unpredictable variables, and do not have a confined lifespan, their financial status and costs cannot always be accurately specified. However, distinct adaptation projects more generally will be identified and packaged in terms of their financial specifications, and are expected to be ready for future reporting. | Finance secured | 700000 | 700000 | Local | 4223565 | 2017 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[18.4239, -33.9253]} | 2020-05-01T04:07:31.380 | ||

Consiste en la siembra de plantas, generalmente de especies forrajeras gramíneas, leguminosas o crucíferas, que no se destinan al pastoreo animal ni a la cosecha de granos. Se siembran en otoño y ocupan el suelo entre dos cultivos de verano.Su incorporación contribuye a retener la humedad en el suelo, aumentando la penetración de agua y reduciendo la pérdida por escorrentía, se aprovechan mejor los nutrientes que son liberados para el cultivo de grano y se controlan las malezas de difícil eliminación con herbicidas.Uno de los importantes beneficios de los cultivos de cobertura es que muchas especies de leguminosas tienen la capacidad de fijar nitrógeno atmosférico y pueden ayudar a mejorar la fertilidad del suelo. Al incorporar estas coberturas, se necesitan menos fertilizantes nitrogenados para suplir los requerimientos del cultivo y esto, además de ser un ahorro importante para el productor, es una contribución importante a la mitigación de los gases de efecto invernadero (GEI).También hay que destacar que dentro de las posibles alternativas de adaptación a un incremento en la temperatura por el cambio climático (olas de calor, noches más calurosas) puede señalarse la utilización de cultivos con mayor tolerancia al estrés térmico, así como el ajuste de la fecha de siembra y el ciclo de los cultivos para ubicar los periodos críticos de definición del rendimiento en momentos de menor riesgo. | Pre-feasibility study status | 10292 | 2010 | 2020-05-01T04:07:31.380 | |||||||
