While the vulnerability of older persons to climate change is recognized by many scholars, there has been less attention to contributions older adults make to the fight against climate change, and their motivations to engage in that fight. Motivations include concern for the environment they will ...
Climate Change Mitigation Strategies refer to policies and actions aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions to prevent their entry into the atmosphere, implemented at international, national, and local levels to combat climate change. AI generated definition based on:Heat Exposure and Human Health in...
Decades after the scientific debate about the anthropogenic causes of climate change was settled, climate disinformation still challenges the scientific evidence in public discourse. Here we present a comprehensive theoretical framework of (anti)science belief formation and updating to account for the psych...

Resilient design strategies need to be applied to prevent overheating and poor ventilation, while sustainable approach demands avoiding use of air-conditioning system to achieve acceptable thermal comfort [9]. Previous research carried out for other regions revealed a set of conditions affecting thermal ...
Climate change has been addressed from climatic, economic and social aspects in Northern Europe as well as worldwide, and evaluation of measures that might prevent consequences of climate change on global economic processes is required. Therefore, the paper evaluates circular economy as a successful ...
These ecosystems—and the wide range of life forms they contain—are natural carbon sinks, providing nature-based solutions to sequester carbon dioxide and prevent further climate change.15 Global warming is thereby damaging the earth’s ecosystems and impairing their ability...
Read widely and understand what we are dealing with. If you have children teach them about the impact of global warming, and what can be done to prevent it. A list of easy reading and technical books can be seenhere. Watch the DVD online here by Al Gore called An Inconvenient Truth. ...
Natural revegetation, afforestation, and lignocellulosic crops for bioenergy, possibly coupled with a developing technology like carbon capture and storage, are the most common land-based climate change mitigation options. However, they can compete for l
Recently many problems have been caused by climate change. Measures in respond to natural disaster are searched for in various fields such as water management, energy, ecosystem, and health science. Resilient policies are being prepared to prevent disaster from flooding and drought through water manag...
