Low Carbon Cities
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has warned there is only a dozen years for global warming to be kept to a maximum of 1.5C, beyond which even half a degree will significantly worsen the risks of drought, floods, extreme heat and poverty for hundreds of millions of people.

Impacts on children's health and well-being in Malaysia. In Malaysia, climate change and environmental degradation impact the health and well-being of children mainly in four ways. Injury, death and water-borne diseases linked to fl oods. Climate-sensitive vector-borne diseases like malaria and dengue. Health problems linked to air pollution.

Climate change in Malaysia
Graph showing temperature anomaly in Malaysia between 1901 and 2021.. Climate change is having a considerable impact in Malaysia.Increasing temperatures are likely to greatly increase the number of heatwaves occurring annually. Variations in precipitation may increase the frequency of droughts and floods in various local areas. Sea level rise may inundate some coastal areas.
Malaysia
NDC Status Malaysia submitted its revised NDC in July 2021. Key highlights from the NDC Malaysia increased its mitigation ambition with an an unconditional target to cut carbon intensity against GDP by 45% by 2030 compared to 2005 levels. In the first NDC, the unconditional emissions reduction target was 35%, with an additional 10% being conditional on external support.

A study by Nelson and Serafin (1996) on Malaysia's changing climate patterns predicted that by 2096, local temperatures will increase by between 1.5 and 4.5°C, while a study by the ...
Malaysia
This page presents high-level information for Malaysia's climate zones and its seasonal cycle for mean temperature and precipitation for the latest climatology, 1991-2020. Climate zone classifications are derived from the Köppen-Geiger climate classification system, which divides climates into five main climate groups divided based on seasonal precipitation and temperature patterns.
Cop 27: Malaysia's climate commitments at the international stage
The upcoming COP27 will have a huge focus on adaptation, which looks at how countries are managing the impact of climate change. Countries will also be reviewing their nationally determined contribution (NDC) or climate targets to ensure that it is enough to limit global warming to 1.5°C compared with pre-industrial levels.
Malaysia
In 2014 UNISDR estimated these at around $1.3 billion. While Malaysia can experience drought, landslides, earthquakes and storm surges, the large majority of its losses are attributable to flooding. Malaysia's climate also makes the country particularly vulnerable to vector-borne diseases. Recognising these threats Malaysia's NDC ( 201 6 ...
Lessons from Climate Reports for the Malaysian Medical Community
The frequency and intensity of heat waves experienced in Malaysia is projected to increase significantly due to a warming climate. The sea level rise experienced in coastal areas is expected to reach approximately 0.4 m-0.7 m by 2100, with the magnitude expected to be much greater in Sabah-Sarawak.

Report: Parts of Malaysia at risk of disappearing due to global warming
It said that several areas across Malaysia were at risk of disappearing entirely before the projected date of 2050 due to rising sea levels. The report cited the coastal areas of Pantai Ban Pecah in Perak that were once paddy fields before being flooded by seawater in the 1960s, believed to be from global warming and extreme weather.

1 Introduction. Energy consumption is a basic condition for human economic activities. With the rapid development of the global economy, the scale of energy consumption has significantly increased, leading to an annual increase in CO 2 (Zhou and Chen, 2023).This ultimately results in a further deterioration of global warming issues.

Sustainability
Abstract: Sustainability and the quest for a more robust construction material cannot be divorced from each other. While Portland cement has revolutionized the construction sector, its environmental toll, particularly in greenhouse gas emissions and global warming, cannot be ignored. Addressing this dilemma requires embracing alternatives like geopolymer cement/geopolymer binder (GPC/GPB).
