My experience suggests that the adjustment of life style as well as infrastructural support may be the options for enhancing resilience. However, it is location and time specific, therefore, the precise solution may be obtained by customized research.
I agree with Professor Rajiv Pandey. Life style adjustment, coupled with infrastructural support, is certainly an option to enhance climate change resilience and sustainability in urban areas. To stimulate life style adjustment, it is important making people aware. Customized research is desirable in this regard.
Life style adjustment, coupled with infrastructural support, is certainly an option to enhance climate change resilience and sustainability in urban areas. To stimulate life style adjustment, it is important making people aware. To promote economic vitality of countries and protect well-being of inhabitants, it is essential that national and local governments have a strong commitment to prepare their city for climate change. Urban mitigation and adaptation not only requires that municipal officials and agencies set the policies and set the performance target that foster reduction in emission, but they should also engage together with society. So when you engage together with society, you need to have a constant process of getting the public consultation process, public engagement/involvement.
I feel that in developing countries ther eis much opportunty to provide transportation ideas that do not rely on private individual transportation. Often the percentage of hosueholds have cars is much, much lower than in so-called developed countries, often the majority of people are fairly poor and cannot afford cars. Still little is done to provide good quality and efficient public transport and in a few decades, when middles classes have been in greater number then everything gets out of control as little has been done when it was possible. Here in Fiji it seems that just the chance is being missed to make a difference.
