Neighbourhood Houses

This envisions some of the people within the community which will live or use the services provided within the Hoddle Street Health and Community Hub. Derived from the rich diversity which already lives within the social housing these people reflect the differences in cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, demographics and family structures which could live within the building. Thinking about these people, their needs, the spaces and services which they will use will help to assist myself in designing for the rich diversity within the community and what it should be for these people.

IPCC issues ‘bleakest warning yet’ on impacts of climate breakdown, Fiona Harvey, The Guardian

The Intergovermental panel on Climate Change states that there is a small window left avoid the consequences of climate change.

“Any further delay in concerted global action will miss a brief and rapidly closing window to secure a liveable future.” - Hans-Otto Portner, Co-Chair ICCP.

The world will more frequent natural disasters and human suffering associate with the climate disaster. Droughts, floods and heatwaves.

Extreme events of weather are accelerating and causing more damage and havoc then previously seen.

An increase in 1.5oC above pre industrial levels, would lead to melting of ice caps and glaciers, wild fires, tree species and forest collapsing, thawing of permafrost with the release of additional carbon emissions.1

“The question at this point is not whether we can altogether avoid the crisis – it is whether we can avoid the worst consequences.” - John Kerry, US envoy for Climate. Summary of Report.

· Everywhere is affected, · Between 3.3 billion and 3.6 billion people – live in areas “highly vulnerable” to climate change. · Millions of people face food and water shortages owing to climate change, even at current levels of heating. · Mass die-offs of species, from trees to corals, are already under way. · 1.5C above pre-industrial levels constitutes a

“critical level” beyond which the impacts of the climate crisis accelerate strongly and some become irreversible. · Key ecosystems are losing their ability to absorb carbon dioxide, turning them from carbon sinks to carbon sources.

The three part report consists of the physical science of climate change “unequivocally” created by humans. The second part outlines areas most vulnerable and the impacts. The third part will unfold measures which can cut emission and the findings from the UN Cop27 climate summit. 1

Global Dominoes.

The article describes that this crisis will not only have direct impacts but also indirect ones. Worsening problems such as hunger, health and exacerbating poverty on a large scale. The is also the proposition that climate effects will promote violent conflicts for resources. With the fragility of nations as the come to grips with climate change impacts hit nations we could see human tensions and international relations become inflamed.1

HIGH VS LOW EMISSIONS

The graphs (right) compare different emission scenarios and their relative effect on global temperature warming. It also highlights previous historical data up until 2020 of temperature increases due to climate change.

(CSIRO - Reaching Global Warming

Levels, 2021)

Very high global emissions scenario is the ‘buisness as usual approach’ where there is very little change to practices or carbon mitigating implementation strategies. For our context we see that around the year 2050 we will hit an increase of global mean temperature of 2.5CO. This would be catastrophic to the world with the trend continuing to raise in the end of the 21st century. The low global emissions target sees a more positive outlook on the future but this scenario needs immediate action from both developing and developed countries from the present. This goal given the current actions taken on climate change is still very optimistic. It would see a rise to 2.0OC mid-century and a stagnation of emissions into the future from this

point (CSIRO, 2020).
