Barcelona climate change

i. How does this affect the region around it? Similar impacts on water scarcity, agriculture, and heat stress affect neighboring regions. As these areas rely heavily on tourism, such climate changes also threaten the local economy. ii. What effects does it have globally? Climate change in the Mediterranean region has global implications. For instance, the loss of biodiversity and the collapse of agricultural production can affect global food markets.

Mediterranean Region: Other cities and regions around the Mediterranean are experiencing similar climate changes as Barcelona, including Athens, Greece, and Rome, Italy.

Initiatives include green urban planning, solar energy adoption, water management systems, and climate action plans aiming for carbon neutrality by 2050.

Barcelona faces rising temperatures, flooding risks, water scarcity, urban heat island effects, and biodiversity loss. Heatwaves threaten health, flooding disrupts life, and droughts affect water supply.
