Abstract

Approaches to determining the vulnerability of the population in connection with climate change are considered. A comparative analysis of the vulnerability of the population of the regions of the European and Ural North was carried out. The following Rosstat indicators were used: the share of the population with cash incomes below the subsistence level, the unemployment rate, the share of people with disabilities in the total population, the presence of air conditioners in households, the share of green space in the total area of urban land within the city limits. With the help of a point rating, regions are identified that are less vulnerable to climate change. Regions with a higher level of socio-economic development, the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug and the KhantyMansiysk Autonomous Okrug, turned out to be the least vulnerable to climate change. When developing adaptation documents for regions to global climate change, it is necessary to take into account the most vulnerable groups of the population. This will enable the development of a more targeted and effective adaptation strategy.
