Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.2Please identify and describe the factors that most greatly affect your city’s ability to adapt to climate change and indicate how those factors either support or challenge this ability.4Please describe how the factor supports or challenges the adaptive capacity of your city1Situated along the Ohio River, the Louisville Metro region is a major thoroughfare for ground, air, river, and rail traffic, each with different climate-related risks. Transportation disruptions and traffic congestion (as a result of poor land use planning and practices), especially during flood emergencies, can affect the ability of suburbs and businesses to adapt.

Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.2Please identify and describe the factors that most greatly affect your city’s ability to adapt to climate change and indicate how those factors either support or challenge this ability.4Please describe how the factor supports or challenges the adaptive capacity of your city2A primary climate change vulnerability identified for Louisville's residents is the potential for an overburdened health-care industry tasked with responding to multiple or increasing threats of outbreaks and extreme events. If climate change increases the frequency or duration of events, current levels of capacity will prove inadequate. Potential challenges include limited funding and response resources, slower response and recovery time, overburdened staffing, and volunteer constraints.

Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.2Please identify and describe the factors that most greatly affect your city’s ability to adapt to climate change and indicate how those factors either support or challenge this ability.4Please describe how the factor supports or challenges the adaptive capacity of your city3Maintaining high-quality infrastructure is imperative for Louisville to thrive and adapt to climate change. The city's transportation assets, however, are in poor condition. Street pavement, bridges, sidewalks, signs and signals are all deteriorating. In addition, some of Louisville's sewer infrastructure was built of brick in the mid- to late-1800s, which greatly increases the likelihood of sewer system collapses. As climate change worsens and storms become even more extreme, older and outdated infrastructure will become even more at risk, also creating a risk for health and safety.

Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.2Please identify and describe the factors that most greatly affect your city’s ability to adapt to climate change and indicate how those factors either support or challenge this ability.4Please describe how the factor supports or challenges the adaptive capacity of your city4Homelessness in Louisville isexpected to increase with climate change as more and more people are displaced and/or experience economic hardship and insecurity. Higher costs for housing, insurance, food, and energy are expected to take a toll on lower income households and individuals. In addition, extreme events such as floods and large storms could force people into homelessness. This is likely to put pressure on organizations and government services that support members of the homeless community.
16964249333City of Louisville, KYUnited States of AmericaNorth America2. Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.2Please identify and describe the factors that most greatly affect your city’s ability to adapt to climate change and indicate how those factors either support or challenge this ability.4Please describe how the factor supports or challenges the adaptive capacity of your city5Action on climate change is difficult to accomplish without passionate and visible leaders. Thanks to its progressive leadership and strong social network, Louisville is moving forward with its climate action planning, and has set aggressive greenhouse gas emissions and renewable energy targets . Strategies have been identified for both reducing emissions and protecting people and resources from anticipated climate impacts. Implementing these new strategies quickly will be vital to creating momentum, gaining buy-in, and reaching important milestones. Sustaining momentum will depend on systemic levels of change in how people live, work, and travel. Louisville Metro’s success depends on highly effective and respected leaders and organizations to move the needle, even when state and federal leadership is lacking.

These factors will help increase the city's adaptive capacity by improving air quality, moderating temperatures, reducing flood risk, absorbing storm water, and improving health.

Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.2Please identify and describe the factors that most greatly affect your city’s ability to adapt to climate change and indicate how those factors either support or challenge this ability.4Please describe how the factor supports or challenges the adaptive capacity of your city8Louisville Metro's commitment to open data and transparency of the government has earned national recognition. Since reorienting the city's culture toward data, Louisville has been able to leverage its data to drive better results for its residents, deliver effective services and programs in response to climate change, and boost economic development by adding more green jobs and businesses.

Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.2Please identify and describe the factors that most greatly affect your city’s ability to adapt to climate change and indicate how those factors either support or challenge this ability.4Please describe how the factor supports or challenges the adaptive capacity of your city9According to the 2014 Louisville Metro Health Equity Report, much of Louisville’s population is living in neighborhoods with unemployment rates over three times the national average. Since unemployment is already highly correlated with poverty and poor health, this makes Louisville's populations especially vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
16964749333City of Louisville, KYUnited States of AmericaNorth America2. Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.2Please identify and describe the factors that most greatly affect your city’s ability to adapt to climate change and indicate how those factors either support or challenge this ability.4Please describe how the factor supports or challenges the adaptive capacity of your city10Louisville's urban environment has a history of unhealthy levels of air toxics, air pollutants (i.e. ozone), water and soil contamination, and a declining tree canopy. These factors will significantly challenge Louisville's ability to adapt to climate change by acting as stressors that exacerbate climate risks.

A long history of racism at the systemic level has led to divisions within the community. Climate impacts such as flooding, heat-related mortality, respiratory illnesses and mortality, and exposure to increasingly extreme conditions are all expected to exacerbate existing inequities.

Climate Hazards and Vulnerability2.2Please identify and describe the factors that most greatly affect your city’s ability to adapt to climate change and indicate how those factors either support or challenge this ability.4Please describe how the factor supports or challenges the adaptive capacity of your city12Louisville’s economy is built on many different types of businesses and industries, ranging from large industrial hubs to small local anddiverse businesses. Climate change is expected to affect the local economy in numerous ways. Not only are transportation routes expected to be interrupted more frequently, but thecost of doing business is also expected to rise due to increasing energy costs andinsurance rates, and recurring disasters.
