El objetivo principal de este ejercicio preventivo fue evaluar el nivel de organización y respuesta de la población y de las autoridades ante la eventualidad de un fenómeno de esta naturaleza.Los resultados del ultimo simulacro realizado con éxito se tuvo los siguientes resultados:Alrededor de 1500 personas evacuaron las playas de la franja costera miraflorina, guiados por expertos brigadistas.El tiempo estimado para subir el puente peatonal hacia la zona más alta y segura, el Centro Comercial Larcomar, fue entre 10 a 15 minutos. Los bañistas que estaban disfrutando del sol en la playa Makaha, decidieron dejar sus pertenencias para participar de este simulacro. Sin embargo, algunos prefirieron quedarse en el lugar.Niños, jóvenes y adultos Subieron por las escaleras de evacuación llegando al parque del amor , donde se encontraba el puesto de comando de avanzada.Cabe precisar que la Municipalidad de Miraflores cuenta con 14 almacenes soterrados, ubicados estratégicamente dentro de la jurisdicción, los cuales almacenan carpas, bladers, grupos electrógenos, equipo médico y demás herramientas importantes a ser utilizadas en caso de un desastre natural.La adaptación al aumento del nivel del mar, mediante la comunicación sobre los peligros climáticos a la población, durante el proceso que se realizó para la habilitación de playas del distrito de Miraflores, se elaboró un cartel informativo el cual contiene información prioritaria sobre la seguridad de las personas que visitan las playas y que estén conscientes de los peligros que se pueden presentar y cómo actuar frente a estos.Esta medida tiene co-beneficios sobre todo con las de olas de calor, por lo que se trabajan de manera conjunta para que la población pueda estar sensibilizada y respeten las señalizaciones implementadas por la seguridad; además que se comprenda las vulnerabilidades frente a los peligros climáticos y puedan tomar medidas para prevenir, reducir y responder a sus impactos.PEN Nuevo Solhttps://www.miraflores.gob.pe/simulacronacionaldesismo/ https://www.miraflores.gob.pe/miraflores-prepara-simulacro-nacional-sismo-tsunami-nocturno/ https://www.miraflores.gob.pe/exitoso-simulacro-de-tsunami-en-miraflores/993372017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-71.5366, -16.3994]}2021-07-16T02:13:47.203

The four year plan aims to improve the quality and quantity of green roofs and vertical greening in the municipality to support amenity, liveability and adapt to climate change. The size of the challenges faced by Melbourne demand a greater degree of green infrastructure than the city can deliver on its own. The City of Melbourne owns and controls less than one third of the city’s land area, with the majority of the municipality in private ownership or other government ownership. Therefore, the action plan seeks to influence the private sector to be an active participant in greening our city.

This study will assess the feasibility of providing protection to the shoreline from rising sea levels at Ballito and to prepare costings for potential schemes. The study will include innovative, costed engineering solutions to mitigate against this threat. The solutions will include both ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ sea defence measures, linked to repairs of the damaged boardwalk, thus improving access to the beach for community members. Furthermore, the project brief will include requirements for engineering solutions to create economic opportunity areas within the sea-defence construction, particularly for the women traders who currently operate along the coastline. This study will then be used to raise funding from municipal and other sources for construction of the sea defences along 4 kms stretch of coastline and will serve as a pilot for further sea defence roll out within KwaDukuza and other vulnerable areas within South Africa. The objectives are as follows;• Assessment of KwaDukuza coastal profile to identify areas of climate change risk to infrastructure and ecosystems, including sewerage pumping stations• Climate change modelling using latest research, showing probabilities and risk areas along the coastline of KwaDukuza municipality• Based on assessed risks, to recommend appropriate sea defence structures or similar coastal protection measures to reduce the risks from coastal flooding and erosion, and damage to infrastructure and ecosystems from anticipated rising sea levels• Make recommendations on integration of sea defence structures into boardwalk or similar to improve community access to coastal waters and improve economic opportunities for women traders. • Fully cost engineering solutions for sea defences, beach reclamation, and other elements as recommended• To fully understand and develop study inclusive of legislative requirements for sea defence structures• To make recommendations on appropriate partnerships for funding, implementation and maintenance of sea defence structures• To make recommendations on potential roll out of solutions to other, equally threatened coastal regions The impact is expected to be a study for fundraising and implementation of sea defences to enable the KwaDukuza municipality to build appropriate defences against rising sea levels, protecting the infrastructure and livelihoods of those who depend on the tourism and other sectors for survival.Pre-feasibility/impact assessment study statusInternational (ODA)ZAR South African Rand250000027671920162021-07-16T02:13:47.203

CFSC has recently awarded the City funds to run these programs during the summers of 2019 and 2020.Defensible space refers to the area between a house and the reduction of the surrounding fuel sources to reduce the threat of destruction to the house from a wildfire. It is required for properties located on land considered a high-hazard fire area because of its proximity to open space areas, which is covered with grass, grain, brush or forest, whether privately or publicly owned.
