These stronger typhoons carry more moisture, track differently, move faster and will be aggravated by sea level rise, one of the most certain consequences of climate change. The Philippines, with its large and rapidly growing population, are vulnerable to stronger typhoons and this vulnerability is...
Climate change threatens food security and crop yield, negatively affecting the coffee industry in the Philippines for the last decade. Herein, species distribution modeling was implemented to map the potentially suitable habitats for cultivating the three topmost coffee crops (Coffea arabica,C. liberica...
While the so-called experts are blaming climate change—and in the process demanding that government grab even more power and authority ostensibly to someday give us better weather—the destructiveness of this fire was the product of an all-powerful and all-incompetent régime. …To review, a p...
Extreme climate change is posing an increasing threat to human welfare across countries. Specifically, the devastating floods coupled with the looming spectre of drought are argued to explain cross-country differences in food security. While the debate continues and uncertainties about the precise influen...
IPCC Global Warming of 1.5 °C: An IPCC Special Report on the impacts of global warming of 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels and related global greenhouse gas emission pathways in the context of strengthening the global response to the threat of climate change, sustainable development, and eff...
Climate justice is increasingly prominent in climate change communication and advocacy but little is known about public understanding of the concept or how widely it resonates with different groups. In our global survey of 5,627 adults in 11 countries spanning the global north and south, most part...
The Philippines Climate Change Commission (CCC) and the Development Academy of the Philippines (DAP) have partnered to develop and roll out a course in late 2019 aimed at helping local government units (LGUs) build community resilience against climate change, reported the Philippines News Agency....
This article focuses on the design and implementation of adaptation plans in the public sector. In the first part, we take stock of the current state of national adaptation plans—the unified body of strategies to adapt to climate change defined and published by national gov...
47. In this study, we investigated the effects of anthropogenic land use and climate change on the current and future distributions of dipterocarps in the Philippines. Our study applied the well-established maximum entropy modelling approach (MaxEnt; Phillips et al.15) to model species ...
