Climate changes
NZ's climate is complex and varies from warm summer in the far north to cool temperate in the far south with severe alpine conditions in the mountains.
Hotter temperatures and heatwaves may bring health issues for vulnerable groups, particularly the elderly and babies, as well as outdoor workers.
-
These impacts will extreme weather events such as droughts, heat waves, heavy precipitation, and increased occurrence and intensity of cyclones, or sea level rise, rising temperatures and changing rainfall patterns
It increase:
homes, buildings, and places that are at rick of becoming less livable, damaged, or destroyed-
Also at risk is culture, cultural heritage and associated mātauranga
-
New and existing places are planned and managed to minimise risks to communities from climate change

What happened to homes, buildings, and other places when climate changes?
Climate changes housing because:
-the cost of repairing house constantly rises
-those who can't repair and rebuild their homes are constantly moving
-with different climates, the repair payment is different
the climate change on cities can make it even harder to repair because of how close the buildings are and how much repair there is to be done
