Nature-based solutions have been recognised an opportunity to simultaneously address the hazard risks achieve biodiversity goals. While are included in climate adaptation strategies, “hard” engineered still often preferred by those implementing schemes.

This study presents a comparative assessment of emerging sustainability trends in tourist facilities, focusing on multiple hotels and resorts. By analyzing various aspects, such as energy efficiency, waste management, water conservation, community engagement, this evaluates the initiatives undertaken by these establishments. Through systematic review reports, practices, challenges, innovations, it identifies key shaping future sustainable tourism hospitality industry. Initially, two case studies developments that are awarded with prizes have been reviewed. These real estate located Maldives Greece, following their detailed review, comparison is drawn sample Pafos City, Cyprus. aims to ascertain presence reciprocal relationship between destinations immediate environs, encompassing local community. investigation hinges an analysis practices implemented situated within destinations. Moreover, explores distance from achieving development environmental, social, economic practices. encompasses range Cyprus internationally. Recommendations toward more approach for touristic units has made, concluded requires active involvement government authorities, supported programs facilitating tourism. Encouraging synergies among businesses supporting destination management partnerships crucial. Sustainable should adhere environmental excellence, social responsibility, viability. The findings provide valuable insights policymakers, hotel managers, stakeholders seeking enhance performance responsibility accommodations.

U.S. government agencies execute home relocation programs, known as buyouts, in flood-prone areas to reduce hazard exposure. By converting the buyout properties into open space, these governmental assume ownership and management responsibilities. As with all landscapes, post-buyout landscape reflects power dynamics institutional forces that shape how land is managed, perceived, used. For acquired properties, historic housing polices, disaster risk reduction strategies, social construction of have accumulated over time on influence contemporary practices. To understand capital management, this study analyzes practices compares them socioeconomic characteristics neighborhoods Harris County, Texas, USA, a county fifty-year history. Results indicate homeownership status, race, ethnicity were related varying degrees, thus reflecting differing degrees therefore space.

Pacific Island Countries (PICs) are vulnerable to climate change impacts, including sea level rise, extreme weather events and other environmental changes. Planned relocation can be an adaptive response climatic threats. In Fiji, six communities have already relocated. While there is growing interest in planned relocation, few empirical case studies from which learn. Narikoso village, the Kadavu Province of undertook partial 2020. Drawing on qualitative research (interviews, group discussions, observation), informed by Vanua methodology 2022, this study examines impacts people's lives livelihoods. Seven sustainable livelihood assets – or forms ‘capital’ explored: natural, social, financial, human, physical cultural, with addition spiritual. Our found that altered capital underpin livelihoods, leading both benefits problems. We argue must not only reduce exposure risk, but promote preserve integrity local ecosystems, value continuity culture sustain develop diverse support This demands deep engagement change‐affected ensure relocations dignity survival.

Current efforts to adapt climate change are not sufficient reduce projected impacts. Vulnerability assessments essential allocate resources where they needed most. However, current that use principal component analysis suffer from multiple shortcomings and hard translate into concrete actions. To address these issues, this article proposes a novel data-driven vulnerability assessment within risk framework. The framework is based on the definitions Sixth Assessment Report of Intergovernmental Panel Climate Change, but some definitions, such as sensitivity adaptive capacity, clarified. Heat waves occurred between 2001 2018 in Quebec (Canada) used validate studied impact daily mortality rates per cooling degree-days (CDD) region. A map produced identify distributions summer aggregate dissemination areas each CDD Socioeconomic environmental variables calculate vulnerability. We compared abilities AutoGluon (an AutoML framework), Gaussian process, deep process model offer advice how avoid common pitfalls with artificial intelligence machine-learning algorithms. promising approach for supporting proposed SHAP values provide an explanation results consistent knowledge Recommendations made implement quantitatively or qualitatively.
