As the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC (COP29) is ongoing, our attention is once again focused on topics such as climate change response, extreme weather, and in particular, early warning.
During the High-Level meeting on "Early Warnings for a Climate-Resilient Future" on the occasion of COP29, China's Action Plan on Early Warning for Climate Change Adaptation (2025-2027) was published. The Plan will further incentivize our action to implement United Nations (UN) Early Warnings for All (EW4ALL) Initiative.
On the occasion of this global event, let's gain an insight into China's local early warning practice which will provide reference for the international community to address severe weather and ramp up global disaster prevention, mitigation and relief capability. That is, "6-3-1 hour(s) early warning model"of heavy rain initiated by Jiangxi Provincial Meteorological Service.
