Resumo
As urban areas expand rapidly, understanding the complex interactions between human
migration, climate change impacts, and biodiversity loss is crucial for effective climate policy. However,
comprehensive knowledge of the simultaneous interaction of these aspects is still scarce. Thus,
this paper proposes the classification of ‘Climate Emergency Coastal Cities’, with the categorization
of 43 cities into four levels according to their vulnerability (extreme, very high, high, and critical).
Our study contributes to evidence-based climate policy and supports efficient resource allocation and
interventions for the most vulnerable coastal cities. Highly anthropogenic megacities were ranked
as the most sensitive to climate emergencies (Lagos, Nigeria; Jakarta, Indonesia; Los Angeles and
Houston, USA; and Hong Kong and Shenzhen, China). It is noteworthy that in countries from both
the Global North and South, the entry of new populations is a critical issue, and represents a threat
to urban structures and biodiversity; however, in territories with fragile economies and numerous
governance challenges, the required structure is still more challenging. The study concludes that
integrated urban planning policies are crucial, considering various perspectives and coordinated
actions. Policies should address marginalized urban groups and include migrants, and promote
human well-being, ecosystem recovery, and climate mitigation, for effective adaptation.
