Bursa is a major industrial city in north-western Türkiye, located between the Sea of Marmara and the slopes of Uludağ mountain. The city combines a rich historical heritage with a strong manufacturing economy, particularly in the automotive and textile sectors. Bursa’s climate is marked by hot summers, mild winters and increasing risks linked to heatwaves, flooding and pressure on water resources.
Rapid urban growth and industrial development have made climate action an important priority for the city. Bursa faces the challenge of reducing emissions while maintaining economic competitiveness and managing the environmental impacts of expansion. Industry, mobility and buildings are central areas of focus, alongside the protection of green spaces and natural ecosystems surrounding the city.
The municipality has invested in sustainable transport, environmental infrastructure and energy efficiency, while working to integrate climate considerations into long-term urban planning. Public transport networks, waste management systems and resilience measures are being expanded to support a more sustainable and liveable city.
Bursa’s approach to climate action reflects its role as both an industrial powerhouse and a growing metropolitan area. Through collaboration with businesses, universities and local stakeholders, the city is working to accelerate the transition towards climate neutrality while strengthening resilience and quality of life for its residents.
