“green recovery efforts, initiatives to advance the clean energy transition, sectoral decarbonization, and alignment of financial flows with the objectives of the Paris Agreement, including with respect to coal financing, nature-based solutions, and solutions to other climate-related challenges.” These...
including brie�ngs and discussions on SD strategic priorities to advance the SD risk management process, implementation of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity reduction target, and the use of reporting and disclosure frameworks such as the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures...
While the challenges and methods are chosen to be broadly applicable across multiple impacts, the examples are taken from a range of flood-related applications since this domain often experiences the challenges most acutely, whilst also possessing a maturity of methodology, due to the history and ...
In this study institutional users are asked to indicate the most important environmental and climate related requirements in terms of current agro-environmental legislation and the potential of current European EO technology to fulfill their monitoring needs is assessed. To understand their ability to ...
Further, the result confirms that while the firm‟s perception of climate change opportunities is significantly and positively related to the firm‟s sustainability performance, climate change perception of regulatory risk is not significant. There is also no significant relationship found between ...
The prototype focuses on three agroclimatic indicators related with water deficit and fire risk: Potential Evapotranspiration (PET), Potential Soil Moisture Deficit (PSMD), and Canadian Fire Weather Index (FWI). Data are provided on a regular grid jointly with climate parameters forecasts, skill of...
The earth’s climate system is changing rapidly and as it does, achieving food security is more challenging than ever in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). There is substantial evidence in the literature of a number of approaches to addressing climate change related food insecurity in SSA, yet there is...
Regarding the effects on human health, elevated heat stress exposure due to deforestation could be extremely dangerous to humans, including increased risk of intolerable conditions for in-shade working activities23 and intensified risk of heat-related illness28. Furthermore, increased heat stress exposure...
(2019), this is related to the chemical and quality variation of plants due to environmental and genetic differences, which make their bioactive effects less predictable. In cultivation, this variation is greatly reduced and managed, as selected plants can be grown in areas of similar edapho...
Horizontal role dynamics(by substitution) is popular among the males, whilevertical role dynamics(by addition) is predominant among the female AVC actors.
