Covid-19 Pandemic: a Multidisciplinary Perspective on Adaptation to Climate Change
Special issue of “Climate”
Published on Wednesday, April 06, 2022
Abstract
Many forms of weather phenomena such as floods, large waves, prolonged droughts and extreme temperatures are having an impact on human life. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the actions we should take to adapt to these situations and reduce the influences caused by them are very critical. Based on the current situation, many countries around the world are trying to engage with strategies, actions and reflections to reduce impacts on the urban environment and to identify the best actions to improve urban resilience and civilian well-being. However, the situation is not the same in all countries, forcing some to step up their interventions and learn from the actions taken by others.
