The planet is at a tipping point. We are facing an unprecedented disaster of global scale: climate change. To protect the lives and livelihoods of billions of urban dwellers, cities must adapt and build resilience to the impacts of climate change, as well as mitigate its causes.Cities consume over two-thirds of the world’s energy and account for more than 70% of global CO₂ emissions. Also, the increased frequency and severity of extreme weather events are causing significant damage to urban infrastructure, economic activities, natural ecosystems, and most importantly to people, especially the most vulnerable.Yet just as cities are part of the problem, they are integral to its solution. Many cities are leading the way in finding solutions for the sake of the more than 4 billion urban dwellers spread across the world. From Buenos Aires to Freetown, cities are planning to adapt to climate risks and reduce the emissions that are causing the climate breakdown.Featuring original video interviews with 20 climate experts and city officials and over 70 case studies from Global South cities, this course offers an unparalleled learning experience to help build a more sustainable and just urban future for all.
