4702201944076Bursa Metropolitan MunicipalityBursaTurkeyEuropeCDP Cities, ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability, WWFpublicExtreme hot temperature > Heat waveHeat mapping and thermal imagingStrategies on the Reduction of Urban Heat Island Effect (BUSECAP 2017)Monitoring and reportingDisaster Risk Reduction, Ecosystem preservation and biodiversity improvement, Improved public health, Reduced GHG emissions, Resource conservation (e.g. soil, water)As it is known, urban heat island effect (UHI), is not directly linked to the adverse effects of global climate change, however, it is known that it is metropolitan areas in Turkey where the adverse effects of climate change will be experienced most intensely. Objective UHI1: Identification of risk areas and taking UHI mitigation measures Action UHI1.1: Identification of risk zones and determination of public health impacts in these zones - Firstly, the scientific measurement studies related to the positioning of the UHI, the introduction of sensitive areas.- Determination of short to long-term effects of public health with the benefit of national and international scientific findings, to carry out modeling studies. Action UHI1.2: Popularizing "green-cool" areas in risky regions - The creation of large and green cool area with pedestrianization in the Heykel-Altıparmak-Fomara triangle in the city center which is determined by experts as the riskiest region of Bursa in terms of UHI. In this regard, the actualization of the pedestrianization in this area to be carried out BMM as quickly as possible. - Designing and actualizing incentive mechanisms for green roofs and corridors in all risky areas, particularly in the above-identified region.- To increase the number of green spaces in sensitive areas. - To obligate structural designs to add UHI into account in urban transformation regions. - The construction of large urban parks where the majority of the population in the city can access thru short distances. - The health protection band to be actualized in the OIZs, and the green roofing practices to be encouraged in the OIZs. Objective UHI 2: Reduction of Heat Island Effect at Planning Level Action UHI 2: Consideration of Heat Island Impact in scale plans and in all projects - To include building density, green equipment and UHI in the upper scale plans, Development and Environmental plans. - Adopting an approach that considers the UHI, especially in urban transformation projects.- Preparation of Environmental Plans and Master Plans in a way to include ecological analysis and long term climate change scenarios. Objective UHI3: Reduction of IAE due to transportation Action UHI 3: Taking necessary measures to reduce traffic intensity - Urgent action to reduce traffic intensity in the most risky areas, to reduce private car usage, particularly by pedestrianization, and by means of public transport incentives.- In general, to rapidly reduce the entrance to the city center by measures such as parking pricing.- Use of environmental friendly fuels in public transport. Objective UHI4: Awareness and Organization Action UHI4.1: Interinstitutional Coordination - Establishment of an Provincial Coordination Council for Climate Change.- The establishment of a coordination unit and the capacity of the coordination unit should be improved.- Establishment of the monitoring board for compliance and mitigation of climate change at each level of local governments.- Establishment of incentive and prize mechanisms by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization for leading municipalities in this area- Climate change, public health relationship to be determined by scientific studies and ensuring public awareness. Action UHI4.2: Training and activities on awareness - To point out the effects of heat island in all education stages, to include it in the curriculum. For City Council to provide support to the educational activities at schools, the handling of many different issues related to climate change in these activities, such as energy saving, renewable energy, etc.- Preparation and popularizing the Guidelines on Preventive Measures.- Good practices in cities should be given priority and awarded.- The results should be submitted to the environmental working group of municipal council members.Pre-feasibility study statusLocalhttps://www.bursa.bel.tr/dosyalar/birimek/190625113724_BURSA-SUSTAINABLE-ENERGY-and-CLIMATE-CHANGE-ADAPTATION-PLAN-2017.pdf299452120182020-05-01T04:07:31.380

Risk Assessment - 1. Analyze and assess the possibility of disaster to make a decision on emergency response solutions and disaster warning by considering the level of disaster, the duration, risk areas, and disaster-affected people, the capacity of area to tackle with repeated disaster, secondary disaster), and complex disasters. 2. Determine the disaster-affected area - The disaster-affected area is divided into 3 areas and the officers will be assigned to follow up and monitor the disaster continuously within the area. The 3 disaster-affected areas are following: 2.1 High disaster-affected area (Closely monitoring and following up) 2.2 Average disaster-affected area (Monitoring and following up) 2.3 Low disaster-affected area (Monitoring and following up) An emergency actions include helping the victims, evacuating, searching, performing first aid and vacating pets and livestocks to safe places or temporary shelters. The shelters will be operated by registering disaster victims, pets and livestocks, performing first aid for injured people and send them to clinics and hospitals, supporting life-saving supplies for disaster victims such as ready-to-eat food, and drinking water.Feasibility finalized, and finance partially securedLocalhttp://www.kkict.org/~kkmuniprotect/index.php/2016-02-10-08-58-01/2016-02-10-09-17-4211926520182020-05-01T04:07:31.380

The initiative, a joint effort by Shah Alam City Council (MBSA) and Projek Lintasan Kota Holdings (Prolintas), saw the participation of about 350 people, including Prolintas and MBSA employees as well as volunteers from non-governmental organisation (NGO) Eco Warriors Malaysia, Management and Science University (MSU), Universiti Teknologi Selangor, SK Subang Bestari 2 and the Sungai Buloh Residents Association. MBSA councillor Papparaidu Veraman, who is also the event’s organising chairman, said the initiative was first carried out in 2010 with the aim to turn Shah Alam into a green, low-carbon city. Over the past nine years, the initiative saw a total of 18,276 volunteers from various universities, NGOs, government agencies and private companies who took part in 51 tree-planting programmes. A total of 94,478 saplings were planted around Shah Alam.Finance securedPublic-private partnershiphttps://www.thestar.com.my/metro/metro-news/2018/04/10/growing-a-greener-landscape-council-and-volunteers-join-forces-to-plant-2000-saplings-in-shah-alam/#RxuSK5tDTARMEbgj.9966989420182020-05-01T04:07:31.380

The need to reduce this danger brought the proactive installation of a 2,500 foot long flood wall that stretches along the outside of the plant. The City of Tacoma’s Environmental Services Department was awarded the Washington State American Public Works Association’s Chapter Award for Project of the Year for this project. Tacoma won in the category of Emergency/Disaster Preparedness for the Central Wastewater Treatment Plant (CTP) Flood Protection Project. In addition, this honor has led to the project being selected as one of APWA’s National Public Works Projects of the Year for 2016. These awards recognize excellence in management and administration to successfully complete public works projects.Finance secured90000003000000Other: Pierce County Flood Control Zone Districthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jp0BiB_5w_8&feature=youtu.be2162792018{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-122.444, 47.2529]}2020-05-01T04:07:31.380
