soil management, and conservation agriculture can help sequester carbon in ecosystems. Technical strategies such as renewable green energy, carbon capture and storage, and energy efficiency can reduce GHG emissions from human activities.

Approximately 68.5 million people were affected, and economic losses amounted to $131.7 billion, of which storms, floods, wildfires and droughts accounted for approximately 93%. Economic losses attributed to wildfires in 2018 alone are almost equal to the collective losses from wildfires incurred over...
Our findings show that many farm households in EA and SA experienced multiple climate risks, including drought, floods, and crop pests and diseases. Even though agriculture is the major sector supporting the livelihoods of most farm households in both regions, farmers adopt diversified adaptation meas...
NAIROBI, May 16 (Xinhua) -- Limiting carbon emission in the rapidly growing African cities will be key to averting climate emergencies like floods besides hastening the realization of a just, green and inclusive future for the continent, campaigners said Monday ahead of the 9th Africities summit...
denotes a country- and year-specific conversion factor. Event-specific damage estimates were then aggregated to year–country and year–region level in order to be comparable with simulated river floods for which only the annual maximum was considered. Thereby we assumed that only one flood event ...
Researchers Say Climate Change Mitigation Strategies Ignore Carbon Cycling Processes Of Inland WatersIn the paper, The Boundless Carbon Cycle, published in the September issue of Nature Geoscience, scientists from the University of Vienna, Uppsala University in Sweden, University of Antw...
The paper analyzes two important research questions: i) how large may global irrigation water demands become over the next century, and ii) what are the potential impacts of emissions mitigation policies on global irrigation-water withdrawals. We find that increasing population and economic growth ...

we appraise the potential of four key adaptation strategies to reduce flood risk across Europe based on flood risk modelling and cost–benefit analysis. We find that reducing flood peaks using detention areas is economically the most attractive option. In a scenario without climate mitigation (3 ...
