This chapter consists of three parts; the first part investigates climate change adaptation (CCA) policies that were adopted in Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and Latin America. These CCA policies are related to urban areas, infrastructure, water resources and energy as well as green ...

International trade enables us to exploit regional differences in climate change impacts and is increasingly regarded as a potential adaptation mechanism. Here, we focus on hunger reduction through international trade under alternative trade scenarios fo
However, given the inertia of the climate system, even radical reduction targets would not significantly slow down global warming. Consequently, mitigation cannot be the only policy response to global climate change. An alternative is reducing vulnerability by adapting to global warming. Adaptation ...
adaptationmitigationrecoveryIn this paper, I suggest a significant shift in the international approach to dealing with climate change. There remains a rhetoric of "this is what we can do to make it better," with little recognition of the ability, or rather, likely inability of international ...
Research now shows that there is a large discrepancy between how much megacities spend on adaptation. Those in developing countries spend considerably less per person than their developed counterparts, despite being the most vulnerable. Urban areas are i

Understanding and describing geological consequences of global climate change and their interactions and causes is crucial for planning adaptation and mitigation strategies for continued future change, ...
