AlphaGeo report: South Asian cities face climate crisis due to low adaptation

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new report from AlphaGeo analyzes the climate resilience of 72 of the world's largest cities using its proprietary Climate Risk & Resilience Index (CRRI). The index differentiates between raw physical exposure and resilience-adjusted risk (RAJ), highlighting that adaptation measures, rather than geography alone, significantly impact a city's vulnerability. South Asian megacities like Ahmedabad and Dhaka face a compounding crisis due to high physical exposure and moderate adaptation, while cities in Europe, Africa, and Latin America demonstrate higher resilience.
