Cities are particularly vulnerable to climate change because of their high concentration of population, goods, capital stock, and infrastructures. Heat waves in particular, enhanced locally by the so-called Urban Heat Island (UHI) lead to an above-normal mortality rate in cities (Wong et al., 2013; Shaposhnikov et al., 2014). Intense precipitation in urban areas, on the other hand, cause more easily floods with dire consequences because of the impermeability of the urban surfaces (Muis et al., 2015; Yin et al., 2016). Air quality conditions in cities are recurrently and often even continuously exceeding health limits. Furthermore, cities are strong emitters of greenhouse-gases, as the high concentration of human activities, like transport and industry, entails high levels of energy consumption.
