The Threat of Climate Change is a Shared Responsibility.

Much of the problems in today's climate change issues are on the incapability of managing the risk on the preventive side in terms of planning, budgeting and implementation from the local authorities as well as the communities. Limited or inadequate knowledge in environment preservation and climate change adaptation or risk mitigation added by uncoordinated cross sector work relationship, hampered the capability of the city to overcome the climate change challenges. Other possibility to address this is from private sector as Urban Climate Change Resilience Building (UCCRB) suggest. Unfortunately, the role of private sector in this case is still limited and incidental since their involvement usually based on event and business interest. All parties involvement are imperative in order to resolve this including community at risk.
