Description
Half of the world's population lives in densely populated city regions in delta areas. These delta cities are among the most dynamic areas. They show fast urban and economic growth and undergo continuous transformation and development to facilitate space for living, working and recreation to meet the ever-increasing needs of the population. But delta cities are also among the most fragile areas. Delta cities face severe environmental degradation and are highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Rising sea levels, increased river discharge, extreme weather conditions, salination of groundwater and subsidence constitute significant and increasing threats to the delta cities and the people living in them. The devastating impact of hurricanes demonstrate the vulnerability of a delta city. Other delta cities suffer almost every year.
The increased pressure on delta cities have also led policy makers and experts to rethink their development strategies. Countries all over the world are looking into ways to adapt to climate change. The Netherlands, for example, are embarking on a long-term delta program for climate change adaptation of the Dutch Delta. All over the world, people are seeking practical, innovative, sustainable solutions to adapt to the impacts of climate change and facilitate sustainable development of delta cities.
