DEVELOP A HEAT ACTION PLAN (HHAP) FOR NAIROBI CITY COUNTY
Climate change is a global pressing priority issue, whose impacts are increasingly felt not just across the global scale but across the local and regional scale as well. Cities especially have become more vulnerable to heat and its related heat island effects as they are nodes of development with over use of resources, energy and utilities, creating unrelenting pressure on cities infrastructure as well as resources in an already resource constrained ecosystem the world and its people are dwelling into. Developed countries though have majority development infrastructure hubs and sectors and produce more of emissions and heat, have inclined themselves and infused conservation and protection along with development. How much they consider development as priority, they consider conservation as an equal priority, thus reducing the heat Islands effects and increasing temperature. Unlike developed countries, developing countries have multiple priorities to resolve due to lack of infrastructure and capacities and only focus on growth and development with least priority to conservation and protection and climate change action, this causes ripple effects and increases the risk of heat and heat Islands effects thereby accelerating warming as well as GHG emissions. Africa over the past one decade is turning to be one of the most vulnerable developing country posed with extended risk to heat and heat island effects in lieu of not just climate change but also due to lack of poor or obsolete infrastructure support and systems in place and lack of coordination and lack of collective and penetrative participation from cities and communities or citizens. As there is burgeoning exchange between the cities and its infrastructure and considered nodes of innovation and development catalysts, but lack collective capacities and capabilities to infuse best practices by practicing the policies and procedures set by the governance nor do they bring to notice the barriers and challenges for a structured and strategic approach for resolving local based heat impacts and heat Islands effects and its associated health related comorbidities. The present proposal is for Nairobi City County in Africa which in recent years is facing climate change related impacts at the accelerated rate. Nairobi, the capital city of Kenya, originated in 1899 as a simple rail depot along the Uganda Railway being built by the British. Its name originates from the indigenous Maasai phrase Enkare Nyrobi, which beautifully translates to "place of cool waters” ( www.nairobi.go.ke ) . Known for its landscape and nature pristinity is losing the natural landscape and heritage due to climate change impacts with rapid, unplanned urbanization overlapping with extreme weather. The city is currently facing severe flood risks due to concrete replacing natural wetlands, water scarcity driven by population growth and drought, and localized heat extremes affecting over 60% of residents living in informal settlements. These areas lack basic climate resilience infrastructure, including adequate sanitation, paved roads,safe and affordable housing. It is experiencing significant increase in built-up areas and a corresponding loss of green spaces. The replacement of trees and vegetation with concrete and asphalt traps heat, exacerbating the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. Keeping these factors in mind the proposal is prepared not as a plan but a practice and procedure for citizens to follow and participate and governance to deploy and implement. Deliverables: Impact: Towards having a net zero and urban climate resilience city Nairobi needs to work cohesively under the C40 Cities framework of projects institutionalized for myriad benefits for the city and its infrastructure. A structured framework model, end user template for stakeholder consultation, collaboration, participation and partnership for management and mitigation will be carried out.
Case StudySUPPLY CHAIN RISK ASSESSMENT - MEASURING YOUR SCOPE 3 EMISSIONS FOR IMPACT ASSESSMENT AND RISK REDUCTION
Most of the sectors and industries are responsibly measuring, monitoring and mitigating the scope 1 and 2 emissions across its business operations. However scope 3 emissions from across its supply chain and procurement remains unaddressed by most sectors making the business vulnerable to climate risk across the supply chain. In lieu of this fact, we at Smartedge Consulting, one of the leading ESG and Climate Change Consulting firms in India, is inclined towards providing your sector and industry with start to end seamless and robust supply chain and procurement management, monitoring and mitigation strategy and benchmarking roadmap to mitigate risks. Scope 3 emissions across the value chain both at the upstream and downstream account for nearly 70 to 90 % of the company's share of supply chain emissions as per the recent GHG Protocol report of 2026 (www.ghgprotocol.org). Scope 3 emissions are categorized into 15 categories and need structured supply engagement policy, practice and procedure, primary and secondary data collection guidelines, at what level across the supply chain (tier 1 suppliers, tier 2 suppliers etc) engagement scope and extent and nature of impact is happening. A thorough run through of Plan, Do, Check and Act PDCA is very much necessitated to understand the nature of business and its supply chain. The work deliverable is to segment the scope 3 emissions assessment across the 15 categories and map the critical areas of concern across the supply chain so that accordingly supplier level risks shall be mitigated.
