Fig. 4: Expected impacts and cascading effects of unprecedented heat.

This mindmap, based on Klok and Kluck ¹⁷⁶, illustrates how unprecedented heat affects various sectors. On the left, unprecedented heat is positioned centrally, with various colours representing pressures on sectors such as the environment, living conditions, water availability, infrastructure and healthcare. On the right, the same mindmap is reorganised to illustrate that multiple pressures have cascading impacts on the city’s healthcare.
