To face this risk the Rio de Janeiro City Government has several actions in place, mainly since the creation of GEORIO, the Foundation for Geotechnic, in 1966. Nowadays the City Government has a bigger program to adapt Rio to preexisting hazard that may be worsened due to climate change. This program includes actions like landslide risk mapping, real time risk monitoring, public preparedness with exercises/drills, community engagement, restrict development at risk areas, resetting vulnerable population. These actions are carried on by City institutions, like GEORIO and its Meteorology Office Alerta Rio, Rio Operations Center, Municipal Civil Defense and the Urbanism, Infrastructure and Housing Secretariat. We can highlight the “Alert and Alarm Community System”, which comprises a series of sirens, strategically distributed around the City most risky areas, that are activated when the rain reaches specified thresholds for each region. There are also designated support points near the communities, that are set to receive the population that has to leave their houses if the sirens are activated. For each region covered by this system the Municipal Civil Defense develops drills with the local community, as also has a school training program called “Civil Defense in Schools”, which gives Civil Defense training for students of the municipal education network. The installation of a meteorological radar by AlertaRio, which improves the ability of forecasting rain storms in the City and the public works for slope containment and risk mitigation are other points to highlight.Finance securedLocalhttp://www.rio.rj.gov.br/web/defesacivil/programa-de-protecao-comunitaria65202662017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-43.5614, -22.9054]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143

It was previously reported that the Wolbachia project is an innovation to tackle dengue by injecting Wol­­bachia microorganisms into Aedes Aegypti mosquito eggs. The Wolbachia-infected mosquito will inhibit the growth of the dengue virus in the mosquito and subsequently inhibit the spread of dengue virus. Malaysia's Ministry of Health ran a pilot study on the Wolbachia project in seven hotspots in Selangor, one of which was Dataran Otomobil in Shah Alam, and was able to successfully reduce dengue cases between 50% and 80%. This biological control measure will be expanded to other localities, especially uncontrollable and hotspot areas within Selangor state in the near future.

There is no formal City program to do this on a community scale as it is not recognized as a priority that needs to be addressed, rather it is an expected best practice among developers and builders. It remains to be seen if a formal program will develop in the future.Pre-feasibility study statusOther: Unknownhttps://pitkincounty.com/DocumentCenter/View/17427/Pitkin-County-Hazard-Mitigation-Plan-201890032017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-106.837, 39.195]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143

Currently IPL Rate REP participants and their project partners have approximately 97 MW of solar projects operating or under development. Currently, there are 36 operating solar farms in Indianapolis. IPL purchases more than 300 MW of power from two large wind farms. The 106 MW Hoosier Wind Park in Benton County, IN, began supplying power in 2009 under a 20-year power purchase agreement with EDF Renewable Energy, which operates the farm. IPL also began purchasing power from EDF’s Lakefield Wind Park in 2011 under a separate 20-year agreement.

This is done as an obligation of local governments to carry out district / city scale waste management. the central garbage bank itself is the center of garbage collection taken from the unit's waste bank in the community. The form of activities is by implementing an incentive system to reduce household and household-like waste. The central waste bank is a place for sorting and collecting waste that can be recycled and / or used that has economic value and has the function of fostering and coordinating the unit's waste bank.In the operationalization of the central waste bank, several facilities and infrastructure are needed as follows: scales, savings books, recording books, computers, waste processing equipment, transportation facilities for transporting garbage and permanent buildings (as offices and customer services, waste storage warehouses and processing rooms)Finance secured10000000001000000000Localhttps://www.tribunnews.com/regional/2019/02/24/dinas-lingkungan-hidup-kabupaten-bogor-peringati-hari-sampah-nasional https://www.jpnn.com/news/bupati-bogor-ade-yasin-berbagi-kiat-atasi-sampah https://www.republika.co.id/berita/nasional/jabodetabek-nasional/pnfn6g330/aksi-bupati-bogor-memakai-baju-plastik571500920172019-10-16T18:33:19.143

By promoting planting of indigenous and drought tolerant trees and crops, the activity aims to encourage the planting of trees and crops that are better suited to the climate (and thus better adapted for the conditions) which will therefore be much less stressed in drier conditions.
