Resilient Ningbo Draft Local Resilience Action Plan 1 Executive Summary Ningbo serves as the Chinese pilot city for the World Bank Climate Resilient Cities (CRC) Program. The CRC program aims to „prepare local governments in the East Asia Region to better understand the concepts and consequences of climate change; how climate change consequences contribute to urban vulnerabilities; and what is being done by city governments in East Asia and around the world to actively engage in learning capacity building, and capital investment programs for building sustainable, resilient communities.‟1 The Urban Resilience Methodology was applied to holistically understand Ningbo‟s current and forecast hazards; sector vulnerabilities; and gaps. This baseline understanding allowed for targeted recommendations to build Ningbo‟s resilience, and form the Local Resilience Action Plan (LRAP). It also involved close stakeholder engagement to understand the city, obtain information, and build local capacity. The process of creating the LRAP and final LRAP intends to be owned and implemented by the City. Each City will have a different set of recommendations to address their urban vulnerabilities and climate change risks. These recommendations were carefully discussed and prioritized based on the Ningbo‟s goals, resources, and other factors. The iterative process and implementation of the recommendations would help support a Climate Resilient Ningbo. Climate Resilient Ningbo: to enhance Ningbo’s ability to prepare, respond, recover, and reorganize to direct and indirect climate change impacts and natural disasters 宁波气候变化适应旨在提升宁波对气候变化产生的直接影响与间接影响以及自然灾害的筹备力、应对力、恢复力以及重组力 Ningbo is located in the middle of China‟s coast, in the South of the Yangtze River Delta The City has six districts (Haishu, Jiangdong, Jiangbei, Zhenhai, Beilun and Yinzhou), three county-level cities (Yuyao, Cixi and Fenghua), and two counties (Xiangshan and Ninghai), covering an area of 9817 km2 and containing approximately 5.7 million people. Ningbo, with its port and diverse industries serves as an economic powerhouse in the region and country. Report Ref | Draft 1 | 3 March 2011 110630_FINAL REPORT.DOCX Page 4 World Bank Climate Resilient Ningbo Draft Local Resilience Action Plan However, climate change is a growing risk to the City and its socio-economic development. Ningbo Facts OECD ranked Ningbo as one of the most vulnerable port cities in the world, with high socio-economic Location: South of Yangtze River asset and population exposure. Delta in Zhejiang Province Ningbo themselves have estimated that geological hazards would Coordinate: 120°52‟ - 121°08‟E, 29°03‟ - threaten about 4,600 people and 11.23 million Yuan (1.6 million 30°19‟N USD) of assets. Therefore, the LRAP was prepared to support Area: 9817 km2 Ningbo‟s path towards resilience. Registered Population: 5.7 million This LRAP had four parts. Part I investigated natural hazards- (2009) weather observations and climate models. Seven key climatic GDP per Capita: 10,833USD (2009) parameters were selected: Administrative Units: Temperature- Temperature rises at an average of 0.9°C o Urban District: Haishu, every decade since the 1950s. Ningbo Meteorology Bureau Jiangdong, Jiangbei, Zhenhai and used a regional model to downscale forecast for years Yinzhou 2020, 2030 and 2050 under UN o County-Level City: Yuyao, Cixi IPCC high, medium and low scenarios.
