Community Action and Local Contributions for Mitigation and Adaptation

The proposal is to address the climate challenges faced by the city of São Paulo. The debate begins with the history of PlanClima and an overview of climate change, contextualizing the impacts already observed. Next, a critical assessment and review of the plan will be presented, highlighting progress, gaps, and opportunities for improvement. The results of the study on high temperatures reveal growing risks and socio-environmental vulnerabilities, especially in the more exposed areas. The discussion goes deeper with examples of local initiatives focused on adaptation and mitigation, which illustrate the transformative potential of integrated territorial policies. The event aims to inspire collaborative and sustainable solutions to build a more resilient and just city in the face of climate change.
