Denver partnered with Rocky Mountain Climate Organization to develop projected heat scenarios under the four emissions scenarios. The study showed a profound change in the local climate of Dener, and the data has been used in multiple planning documents for the city. Denver is combating these potential heat vulnerabilities by working inter-departmentally to design extreme weather protocols, as well as addressing each potential impact individually.Finance securedLocal7046212017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-104.985, 39.7376]}2020-05-01T04:07:31.380

The City is in the process of developing a coastal overlay zone that will restrict development in high risk areas. Development seaward of the coastal urban edge is restricted in terms of the nationally-mandated Municipal Spatial Development Framework for the City.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.42235652017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[18.4239, -33.9253]}2020-05-01T04:07:31.380

Moreover, the project develops innovative tools for carbon footprint calculation to be used by companies aiming to reduce their emissions and to improve environmental quality. The accountability process enables then to communicate transparently the committments, the results obtained and the environmental benefits gained to the local community. The methods and tools developed within the project have been adopted as standard procedure by the Municipality to increase tree planting. This action is still ongoing and constantly monitored.389.2612017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[11.3387, 44.4938]}2020-05-01T04:07:06.200

Immunization and prophylaxis have the strongest evidence for prevention, however, for most of the vector-borne illnesses threatening New Orleans there is no United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) approved vaccines except for yellow fever. Therefore, environmental vector control strategies such as reduction in mosquito population through adulticidal and larvicidal will have the greatest impact in controlling these diseases. The NOHD in collaboration with the New Orleans Mosquito, Termite, and Rodent Control Board (NOMTCB) will continue to provide education to the general public on ways to reduce sources of standing water where mosquitoes breed and how to protect themselves from mosquito bites. NOHD will work with community organizations that are promoting the use of green infrastructure to ensure mosquitoes are not breeding in containers such as rain barrels. NOHD will also work with healthcare providers to educate them on access to insect repellent through Medicaid and the importance of testing individuals for mosquito-borne illnesses.Finance secured46283772999534Other: self generated funds + state & local grant funds3932922018{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-90.0715, 29.9511]}2020-05-01T04:07:31.380

In 2018, the Filter-to-Waste (FTW) and Solids Processing Improvements Project got underway. The cost estimate for the project is $4.8 million. The project is now more than halfway complete and is adding a recovery basin, piping, pumps, and other appurtenances to capture the FTW stream and recycle it to the head of the plant. In addition to this project being a sustainable solution, removing the FTW stream from the solids processing facility will significantly extend the useful life of BWD’s existing assets, delaying capital costs for the expansion of that facility.

This is especially important among the poorer communities who may not necessarily have the funds to procure medication if needed. This activity is currently being undertaken in the wealthier schools located in the more central regions of the city, however schools located in the outskirts of the city have less access to resources.

Mangrove trees also function as so-called carbon sinks by storing large amounts of carbon, whereby they contribute to mitigating the effects of climate change. Mangrove forests are hotbeds of biodiversity that are home to a large variety of marine species. As a result, they serve as a constant source of livelihood for local fisher folk. According to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), mangrove forests in Peninsular Malaysia supported a fishery industry worth US$250,000 per square kilometer each year. In 2015, about RN 9800 was spent on the replanting of mangrove and nipah trees around Perai Industrial area. Altogether, 860 trees had been planted during this session. Subsequently, as part of a CSR, mangrove tree (Berembang) planting had been planted in 2018 within the Sungai Kerian area which is near the Perak Penang border region. The cost of this initiative was about RM 20,000Feasibility undertaken298009800Public-private partnership10850002019{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[100.383, 5.38333]}2020-05-01T04:07:31.380
