Please also select the most relevant assets or services that are affected by the climate hazard and provide a description of the impact.12Please describe the impacts experienced so far, and how you expect the hazard to impact in the future7A new infestation of the Asian long-horned beetle (ALHB) was identified in Toronto for the second time in December 2013. The forest pest poses a great risk to Toronto's hardwood and shade trees. 42 percent of shade trees in Toronto are preferred by the ALHB, specifically maple trees. As a result, the potential impact on Toronto's forest canopy is high. Hardwoods and shade trees provide shade and beauty, shelter birds and animals, help filter air pollutants, produce oxygen, and increase property values which could all be at risk as a result of the ALHB infestation. Another risk to Toronto's tree canopy is the emerald ash borer. The City of Toronto's recent tree canopy study estimates that there are 860,000 ash trees in total on public and private lands. Inspections and systematic surveys in 2008-2011 have confirmed the EAB infestation throughout most parts of the City.A newer concern is due to Black Legged Ticks, which transmit Lyme Disease, which is associated with warmer temperatures and more breeding cycles of this insect pest. West Nile Virus is also a concern, due to mosquitos carrying this disease which transmit the disease more effectively at warmer temperatures.

A key issue is flooding of residential basements. Toronto does have an extensive basement flood protection program, which will take a decade or more to be implemented city wide. There is a concern that critical infrastructure could be affected by flooding. Cascade failure effects of infrastructure systems are not yet well understood (e.g. damage to telecom systems, electrical systems etc.) Basement flooding is increasingly a problem. Low income people may not afford insurance or the cost of cleaning up and rebuilding. More people are living in basement second suites and this increases the exposure of these lower income people.
