Land use planning plays a major role in the siting of settlements and infrastructure. In relation to climate change, it affects whether development takes place in locations that are exposed to hazards; similarly, it shapes the potential effects that the built environment can have on natural systems. Despite this, generally speaking, there is limited implementation of zoning and land use measures for climate adaptation from cities across diverse contexts , see for example Maputo , sub-Saharan cities  and Amman, Moscow and Delhi . Certain countries, such as South Korea, have, however, recently begun to address disaster risk reduction within their land use planning systems .
