Climate Change Resilience

Martine, George

Adaptation to climate change is urgent. It is something that we must engage in immedi-ately, or risk disaster. Adaptation is also not just about acting, particularly when we do so reactively. It is about planning, about development and about preparing for the world as it will be, not just as it is.

Community-based adaptation to climate change

Climate Change Resilience

Available Online

International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED)

Scientists are clear that climate change is happening, and that it is due to emissions of greenhouse gases produced largely by industrialised countries (IPCC, 2007). Those likely to be worst affected are the world’s poorest countries, especially poor and marginalised communities within these countries. Ironically it is these poor countries and people who have contributed least to the problem of climate change,because of their very low greenhouse gas emissions, but who will suffer most from its consequences
