A Study on Response to Global Climate Change the Community Environment of Taiwan in the Construction of Evaluation System

Abstract:

The frequent occurrence of extreme climate phenomena around the world has not only resulted in rainstorm, snowstorm and other abnormal environmental phenomena, but also threatened the economy and lives of people; therefore, this study, oriented by the development of environmental assessment mode in residential communities in Taiwan under the changes of climate, based on SBTOOL, increased dimensions like “Community Symbiosis Environment and Life” and “Disaster Prevention and Community Security” for the assessment and obtained relative weights between different assessment indices, and, according to opinions of experts in Taiwan and analysis results, besides “Consumption of Energy and Resources” and “Environmental Load”, domestic experts also pay attention to the development of “Community Symbiosis Environment and Life” and “Disaster Prevention and Community Security”.
