Más allá de su interés turístico y recreacional, resulta además una barrera natural frente a inundaciones y aluviones en caso de precipitaciones extremas y ayuda a disminuir las emisiones de GEI del Departamento.Este proyecto tiene tres ejes fundamentales sobre 35 km 2 de piedemonte. En primer lugar, se realizará un diagnóstico mediante eluso de la teledetección y tareas de relevamiento in situ de toda el área de piedemonte del departamento iniciando en 2021, que buscatener datos precisos sobre el estado actual de la vegetación pedemontana, y conocer más acerca de la zona. En segundo lugar, serealizará una reforestación controlada, en función de los datos arrojados y teniendo en cuenta las necesidades intrínsecas de unecosistema de estas características. El tercer eje de este proyecto está asociado con la toma de conciencia de la población y la valoración del piedemonte como reserva ecológica y pulmón del Departamento.Objetivos:○ Incorporar datos precisos sobre el estado actual del piedemonte.○ Preservar la zona como reserva fundamental para Godoy Cruz.○ Fomentar el cuidado de la flora y la fauna de la zona pedemontana.○ Concientizar y sensibilizar a la población sobre la importancia ecológica del piedemonte.○ Preservar la biodiversidad | 01/20/2022 02:27:05 | |||

Acredita-se que a população nessas faixas etárias seja naturalmente mais sensível ao calor e possa ter complicações de saúde durante esses eventos de temperaturas extremas, tanto em termos de intensidade quanto de duração, como desidratação ou problemas cardiovasculares. Da mesma forma, a moradia inadequada compõe um fator estrutural, pois se pressupõe que um maior percentual de domicílios com acesso à água representa maior preparo para uma resposta básica ao excesso de calor, enquanto a ausência desse recurso representa um sério impedimento à resposta da população a este ameaça. Esse fator se soma ao fator que habitações inadequadas ocupam áreas de risco (em encostas ou áreas de inundação), visto que Salvador possui um grande contingente de população de baixa renda vivendo em áreas de alto risco. | 01/20/2022 02:27:05 | |||

Introduction | 0.1 | Please give a general description and introduction to your city including your city’s reporting boundary in the table below. | 2 | Description of city | 1 | Please complete | Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) of the People's Republic of China. The constitutional framework of the HKSAR is provided by the Basic Law, enacted by the National People's Congress of the People's Republic of China (PRC) under Article 31 of the Chinese Constitution. The HKSAR enjoys a high degree of autonomy in accordance with the principle of 'one country, two systems' and the Basic Law. With a GDP of about US$347 billion in total or US$46,325 per capita in 2020, Hong Kong has established itself as a major international financial and business centre owing to its prime location, high-speed communication infrastructure, as well as free flow of information and capital. Hong Kong has a sub-tropical climate surrounding by the South China Sea and Shenzhen River. With only about 1110.18(as at October 2020) square kilometres of land, Hong Kong is home to some 7.5 million people. Its steep mountains leave 24% of total land area for people to live and work in. Urban renewal, extensions to existing new towns is thus necessary to meet with the acute housing demand. Nevertheless, about 40% of Hong Kong's total land area has been designated as 24 country parks and 22 special areas for conservation, education and scientific studies. The Government is committed to enhancing the quality of the environment for local citizens, with work priorities in combating air pollution, implementing a solid waste management policy, improving harbour water quality, promoting energy efficiency and conservation, and tackling climate change. Through various community outreaching activities by the Government, the public is encouraged to make a change in various aspects of daily living and to nurture a greener and more environment-friendly lifestyle. | 01/20/2022 02:27:05 | |||

Description
This data is collected through the CDP-ICLEI Unified Reporting System. When using this data, please cite both organisations using the following wording: ‘This data was collected in partnership by CDP and ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability’.
This dataset contains a subset of the related full cities dataset, covering Climate Risk and Vulnerability Assessment and Adaptation Action questions for publicly disclosing cities in 2021. The platform is still open and the dataset is updated daily to reflect new submissions.
To view the cities 2021 questionnaire guidance, including all questions asked to cities in 2021, visit https://www.cdp.net/en/guidance/guidance-for-cities.
For any questions, including guidance on how to reference this data in your own work, please contact cities@cdp.net.
Please note that this dataset may contain data from cities or, in some instances, groups of cities at different administrative levels. This includes metropolitan areas, combined authorities, and some regional councils.
When using the inventory data for aggregation, comparison and trend analysis, please note that the inventory data is based on non-verified self-reported city inputs. The reported inventory may not include all emission sources within the city boundary.
