Aiming at building an international urban agglomeration, Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei urban agglomeration takes an active part in international cooperation and competition in a greater depth, and plays a crucial role in supporting and guiding the national economic and social prosperity. In the passing years, Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei urban agglomeration has been severely subjected to extreme weather–climate events, which has aroused tremendous response and enormous concern among all social strata. This thesis sums up the impact of building the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei urban agglomeration on extreme events such as rainstorm, high temperature and heavy haze, and the meteorological disaster risks faced by Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei urban agglomeration in the context of climate change, and comes up with corresponding countermeasures and suggestions for planning and building Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei urban agglomeration and Xiong'an New Area in the context of climate change.
