Climate Change and U.S. Cities
Approximately 80% of the U.S. At the same time, the built infrastructure sustaining these populations has become increasingly vulnerable to climate change. population now lives in urban metropolitan areas, and this number is expected to grow significantly in the coming years.
If the status quo continues, these systems will be unable to support a high quality of life for urban residents over the next decades, a vulnerability exacerbated by climate change impacts. Stresses to existing systems, such as buildings, energy, transportation, water, and sanitation are growing. Understanding this dilemma and identifying a path forward is particularly important as cities are becoming leading agents of climate action.Prepared as a follow-up to the Fourth National Climate Assessment (NCA), Climate Change and U.S.
